注解: 1)How's school going?注意此句中的school是不可数名词,作“学业” “功课”解。又如:She always found school difficult. 2)grant:助学金 3)graduate school研究生院 4)doctorate:博士学位 5)It is to me=It is an interesting field to me.他的朋友说, sounds like而他说it is,语气肯定。is要重读。 6)nuclear physics:核物理学。 7)Master's degree:硕士学位。 8)prefer..to...:喜欢(前者)甚于后者。 9)ahead of you:在你的前面。 |
