1. An honorable entryThe acclaimed academic, Dr. Sir Walter T.J. Fitzbody, accompanied the equally accessible expert of aboriginal history, Dr. Mugambe H. C. Carriky, slowly to the platform to accept his National Science Foundation Award. Both were noted for their absenteeism, rarely seen in public and still marveled at for their abnormal usage of double abbreviations in their names. That it was Dr. Carriky, the former pupil of Dr. Fitzbody who was receiving this life-time award before his mentor was only minor. Dr. Fitzbody knew that academia was not always fair and, having always been rather accommodating for his favorite student anyhow, was taking the event as an honor to his work as well.When Dr. Carriky accidentally tripped over the toe of a person with his leg extended too far into the aisle, the gasps of the crowd conveniently covered the abusive words that came out of Dr. Carriky's mouth. The man did not take the abuse kindly, however, and abandoning all respect, began to rise to respond to the guest of honor. Dr. Fitzbody, sensing trouble, quickly accelerated towards the stage. It did not matter that an accessory of his robe was lost to the floor as they escaped. The rest of the audience, sensing a need for accommodation, politely gave clear access so that no further mishaps would occur.Having accomplished their entry, Dr. Fitzbody began his introduction of Dr. Carriky. He gently smiled and said a joke that related the fall to a historical abstraction. The crowd laughed in relief and breathed easily as they knew that honor and dignity had been restored.体面的入场广受赞誉的学者沃尔特.T.J.费茨博迪博士陪同同样平易近人的土著历史研究专家穆甘贝．H.C.克里奇博士缓缓走向领奖台领取国家科学基金奖。

读故事记单词新gre词汇在GRE考试中，词汇是非常重要的一部分。

考生需要记忆大量的单词，以便在阅读理解和填空题中能够正确理解和运用。

然而，单纯地记忆单词往往是一项枯燥乏味的任务，难以长久保持记忆。

因此，我推荐大家通过阅读故事的方式来记忆GRE词汇。

下面我将分享一些故事，每个故事都包含了一些新GRE词汇，希望对大家的GRE备考有所帮助。

故事一：The Enigmatic Puzzle（神秘的谜题）Once upon a time, there was a renowned detective named Jonathan. He was known for his sharp intellect and exceptional problem-solving skills. One day, he received a mysterious puzzle in the mail. The puzzle was made up of intricate patterns and cryptic symbols. Jonathan was intrigued and determined to solve the puzzle.He started by meticulously examining each symbol and trying to decipher their meaning. He consulted various reference books and even sought the help of a linguistics expert. Gradually, he began to unravel the enigmatic puzzle. Each symbol represented a different word, and as Jonathan decoded them, he gained valuable insights into the puzzle's purpose.As Jonathan worked tirelessly to solve the puzzle, he encountered numerous obstacles. The puzzle was designed to be convoluted and perplexing. However, Jonathan's perseverance and tenacity never wavered. He meticulously documented each step of his progress and analyzed his mistakes, learning from them and constantly improving his approach.Through his journey of solving the puzzle, Jonathan encountered a myriad of emotions. There were moments of frustration and confusion, but also moments ofexcitement and revelation. With each new word he learned, Jonathan's vocabulary expanded, and he became more adept at understanding and using the new GRE words.Finally, after weeks of tireless effort, Jonathan cracked the final piece of the puzzle. The puzzle turned out to be a map leading to a hidden treasure. Jonathan's diligence and determination had paid off, not only in solving the puzzle, but also in enhancing his vocabulary and sharpening his analytical skills.故事二：The Brilliant Scientist（卓越的科学家）Dr. Elizabeth Adams was a brilliant scientist, known for her groundbreaking research in the field of molecular biology. Her passion for discovery and innovation was unparalleled. Throughout her career, she had encountered numerous obstacles, but she never let them deter her from her pursuit of knowledge.One day, while conducting experiments in her laboratory, Dr. Adams stumbled upon an unexpected phenomenon. She observed a peculiar reaction between two previously unrelated chemicals. Intrigued, she delved deeper into the research, exploring the potential applications and implications of this discovery.As she delved deeper, Dr. Adams encountered a plethora of technical terms and scientific jargon. Determined to fully understand the implications of her findings, she embarked on a journey of learning. She diligently studied scientific literature, attended conferences, and engaged in discussions with fellow scientists. Each new word she encountered, she diligently noted down and made an effort to incorporate into her daily vocabulary.Through her perseverance and thirst for knowledge, Dr. Adams not only uncovered the true potential of her discovery but also expanded her own scientific repertoire.

We had been hiding on the outskirts of town as outlaws for far too long. When we overheard that there was an outbreak of some sickness in town that had originated in the orient we knew it was time to come out of hiding and see what was going on. They were calling it the "Oriental Sickness" but we didn't care.The first person we met as we wandered into town was a boy who told us outright that he had just become an orphan. He had nowhere else to go and he wanted to join our outfit. Our leader was outraged that such a small boy had recognized us so easily, but we kept walking into town.Once there we saw that the ordeal must have been great. All ornaments on the buildings for the coming orthodox holiday season had been torn down, several were burnt from fire, and bodies were lying on the street. When we went to get water the bucket was overflowing with blood. We didn't dare drink anything.Quickly losing our orientation as outlaws on the run we were surprised when a mass of people rushed up to us. Their voices were overlapping as they cried for us to take them away. When we replied that we couldn't do anything the crowd turned ugly and ousted us from town.As we rode away none of us could speak. Sometimes natural events overwhelm you, as your own mistakes never can.歹徒的外出出去的时间早就到了，我们作为亡命之徒在城外郊区已经躲得太久。

Ever since they promoted me, they have been compelling me to get rid of you. And please don' t make any comparison to your lying ways and my honest mistakes.""Okay okay. You are an honest man. But hey, who will get you complementary tickets to see the Bulls if I'm gone?""Mike. For now let' s compartmentalize our friendship from work, okay? They have great compensation for you! And if you are in compliance with leaving, they will write a glowing recommendation for you about your competence, so that you can go and get a job with the competition! They've taken all of the complexity out of it for you!""Really? So how will they compensate me? Hey, you're right, that's not a complex deal at all. I can take a long vacation! Okay. I'll take it. But no more free tickets for you buddy. You're the competition now! Some kind of friend you turned out to be!"再见,麦克“情况真的没有那么复杂，麦克。

I was really nervous to go on the date, because my date’s looks were very superb. Because of her superior looks, I had been ver y nervous to ask her out. I had to summon all of the courage I had just to talk to her, but all of my nerves were a bit superfluous because she was a very kind, down-to-earth girl, not superficial at all. But, suffice it to say, I was still nervous!When I told my dad that I was going on the date, he said he wanted to come and supervise it because I was too young to be dating. But, I couldn’t suppress my anger and I said that if he came my embarrassment would surpass anything I’d experienced before. After I gave him a surplus of reasons why I didn’t want him to come with me, I asked him to remember when he went on his first date. He thought about it then finally agreed with me. He said that if his parents had gone with him on his first date, he would have tried to sue them.Before I left to pick her up, I put on my lucky hat. I wear this hat every time I have to do something important. I’ve had this superstition since I was very young. I picked her up at her house and gave her a summary of my plans for our da y together. I wasn’t sure if she would be interested in what I had planned, so I made some extra ideas to supplement my original plan. She said that all of my ideas sounded great and she was looking forward to our day together! Hearing her words and seeing her smile brought me a supreme sense of happiness at that moment.We started our day with a succession of small activities a sum of which involved things at our local mall. We went shopping, played some video games and ordered a large chocolate milk shake and used two straws to suck it all down. I really liked this girl, and the entire day I tried to give her subtle hints to let her know.Because we’d spent so much time at the mall, we had to subtract a few activities from our plan, but we still had time to survey a map of the local hills and we hiked to the summit and back down.

The activist was able to help with aesthetic changes,such as adorning the boy with clean clothes, as well as affirm the boy as his body struggled with the medical additives that would help the boy get better.Certain events were luckily also not adhesive in the youth's mind. This included the boys' aerial leap from a tall building. He did not die only because he landed in the swimming pool of the adjoining building.And now the activist was gaining the attention of his affiliates because of his honorable actions. This had never been his motive. He had only wanted to help a person in need. And, as the Admiral adjourned their weekly meeting about the boy's progress,the activist was really happy that he had been able to make a difference in someone's life.彻底的改变这位反战积极分子的主要对手，舰队司令因儿子染上毒瘾而十分苦恼，但他对此一点也不感到厅怪。

胡敏读故事记单词文本大学英语四级词汇初中高中新gre核心（A字头10篇）abandon ~ accentAt times I like to abandon my ability to speak and write in an academic way, which my friends call an abuse of language. When I am about to go aboard a plane to go abroad, I often still think about this. At these times I am so absent-minded that I almost miss the call for "all aboard". In another every word. Instead, I aim for clear and simple communication to help others absorb what I am saying. This is not easy since I like to abuse language and always try to use the full range of language to the best of my ability. However, I think that one can abandon oneself to new experiences when overseas without treating one's training with abandon. It has also been suggested that I get rid of my strong accent, and my absence from my country might accelerate this change. In the meantime, I'll think of ways to use Band 4 words, in concrete ways, rather than in the abstract. Readers can then abstract what suits them best, from the book, towards developing absolute faith in their ability to master English.有时候我希望放弃用学术语言说话和写作的能力，我的朋友说这是对语言的滥用。

A complicated composition"This piece is filled with more complication than I could ever h ave conceived of composing." Said the composer to the newspaper journ alist. "You see, the song is comprised of a variety of separate eleme nts that are concealed within the song. I concede that they may be ha rd to detect in the beginning, but like a concave bowl, with everythi ng gathered together in the middle that you can only understand when you come out. You understand in the end as they are compounded in suc h a manner so that they compliment each other in a beautiful and comp ulsory finale.""Yes, I have heard your explanation before, Maestro." Responded the journalist in a kind manner. "And we honor your reputation great ly. But others just cannot comprehend this piece of music that you ha ve written! They say that you have compressed a mix of components fro m other well-known songs. For them it is not conceivable that there i s any order, fomp3 or pattern. They say that you have compromised the art fomp3 and that there should be some compulsion for you to comply with demands for your withdrawal of this song from the public arena! ""There may be some compression present. I agree." Defended the c omposer. "But it is beyond my comprehension why I should remove this piece of art from the public's ear!""Well Maestro, it's the public that is having the problem with y our song! No one likes it. No one understands it! So no one wants to listen to it!"复杂的音乐作品“这部作品比我能够想像的创作要复杂得多。

The road to Royston ValleyYou will never find the village of Royston V alley on maps. Traditionally, locals do not abbreviate it to “R.V.” or abridge it to “Royston”. This would be to abandon a tradition. Royston Valley is an aberration and its inhabitants, who consider themselves aboriginals, are aberrant. Stranger s arriving in Royston Valley cannot abscond. Locals abominate them, their situation is abject and they are at the mercy of the local people, who are aboveboard with each other, but hold rules in abeyance with regard to strangers. Rumors abound that hikers in the nearby i n the nearby hills have been abducted and … well, who knows.The villagers live in almost absolute isolation and do not want the outside world to absorb them. They are abstemious and abstain from most of the modern things that other English people, who are now rarely abstentious, enjoy. Their abstention would be famous if anyone knew of it. A few people keep abreast of events in the outside world, in case anything that could affect the village happens. One of these people discovered that a road to Royston Valley was being built. The locals thought thisabominable. How could they stop abhorrent road? They would have to fight until the threat abated and construction was abrogated. Everyone discussed the abolition of the road to their centuries old abode. Everyone attempts to stop the road were made, but these failed, abashing the locals, forcing the mayor to abdicate, and leading to rumors that a villager was abetting the road builders. As a result, each villager publicly abnegated any connection to the road builders through ablution.One woman refused to abide by this and abase herself in this way. She claimed to abhor the road, wanted to abolish it and would give verbal abnegation. Villagers tried to reason with her, saying that, to adjure, ablution was necessary, but the discussion soon became abrasive. Someone pointed out her frequent absenteeism from the village in recent days and the woman was forced to tell her story to absolve herself. Through a series of abscissions and abrasions, she had created a single body from the dead bodies of farm animals. A few days later the road builders discovered it and abraded the mud from it. What they saw horrified them and work came to anabrupt halt on now abortive road.。

They said I was the best candidate for the job. I was a canny negotiator and a very capable speaker. To me, it was just a matter of being candid with the resident natives. I would captivate them with money before telling them that we needed to deforest their land. Then, I could easily calculate and negotiate a reasonable price.I got the job, rather easily I thought. The company directed me to travel into the wilderness12 by boat to canvass the resident natives. The night before the trip, I weighed myself. “Could the calibration on this scale the correct?” I said to myself. “I guess I better cancel my dinner plans. Otherwise the boat might sink.” But I knew that such a cancellation would make me too sad to travel, so I ate my usual meal.The boat was capacious. The boat’s large canopy was made of green and brown canvas. It served as a nice camouflage for the boat. We floated down through the canyon for hours until we f inally stopped. “You’ll travel by foot now, alone!” the boat captain said. He filled my water bottle to capacity and pointed13 the way with a strange smile.Not long after, I ran into a resident native. He led me deep into the forest where I met their chie f. He smiled and said, “You’ve had a long trip. My family would love to have you for dinner.” Expection a feast, I replied, “I’d be honored.”Well, I’ve been in captivity for several hours now, awaiting the feast. What a pity. I was prepared for everything but cannibalism.我的新雇主告诉我，他们需要一个像我这样有能力的人去领导那项不太受欢迎的森林采伐工程。
