Day1025#愛英普一日一提升#各位晚上好,今天分享的第一个单词是jinx/dʒɪŋks/。本来不想分享这个单词的,但是鼠年身边遇到的很多事情又让我不得不去面对这个词,它有两种词性:n.霉运;v.走霉运。来看两个例句
He was beginning to think he was a jinx.他开始认为自己是个倒霉蛋。
The whole family seemed to be jinxed.
全家人似乎都走背字。#爱英普 泉州厦门雅思托福最后一站# https://t.cn/RyhanNK

Day1024#愛英普一日一提升#各位早上好,作者提到妈妈的初次接生经历是元气大伤,在家休息了好几分钟才恢复了点血色(regain some color),在回忆细节的时候(recount details),脸色还依然苍白(pale as an egg)。作者的父亲整天想着就是不让自己的孩子接触到政府部门的官员,听她的描述有点像大灰狼。她父亲提到总有一天他们全家也许会与世隔绝(be completely off the grid)。这里的grid指的是(电)网,有天都不接触这些了,就等于活成爱默生那样的隐士了吧。(看作者的描述,我并没有觉得她们家现在不是在过这种生活)。
顺便分享一个单词ornery/ˈɔːnəri/adj. 脾气暴躁的
The old lady was still being ornery, but at least she had consented to this visit.这位老太太脾气还是那么犟,但至少她已经同意接受此次拜访。#爱英普 泉州厦门雅思托福最后一站# https://t.cn/RyhanNK
