Look at this old photo of our class at school.

看看这张我们班级的老照片。

Oh yes, there's Simon Studious. He was such a swot. I wonder whatever happened to him.

哦,是的,这是好学生西蒙。他真是个学霸。我想知道他现在发展怎么样。

I heard he started his own software company; he's a multi-millionaire now.

听说他开了一家软件公司,他现在可是个百万富翁。

Oh. Wish I'd worked a bit harder then.

哎。后悔当初我没有发奋学习。

But you don't have to be a student to use this word.

倒也不必用这个词汇来形容。

We can use the verb form – to swot up – to mean learn more about anything.

我们可以使用其动词形式—刻苦攻读,意味着求知若渴。

So I could say I'm going to swot up on laptops because I want to buy a new computer.

所以我可以说我要研究笔记本电脑,因为我想买一台新电脑。

You certainly could.

当然可以。
