在托福词汇积累过程中,大家经常会发现有一些单词拼写十分相似,然而意思却差别巨大,一不小心就弄错了本来的意思,在平时积累的过程中要注意区分,接下来就跟小编一起来看看这些易混淆词汇吧!
1、Disseminate/dissemble
Disseminate的词根是semi=seed种子,前缀dis=abroad 所以这个单词原义是传播种子(spread the seed away)
词典解释:
spread or disperse (something,especially information) widely: health authorities should foster good practice by disseminating information.传播扩散
Dissemble
dissemble: conceal one's true motives, feelings, or beliefs: an honest, sincere person with no needto dissemble.
disguise or conceal(a feeling or intention): she smiled, dissembling her true emotion.伪装/掩饰
大家可以结合resemble(类似,相似)来记哦~
2、Intelligible / intelligent
Intelligible: able to be understood = comprehensible;
Intelligent: = clever/brilliant/smart;
3、Comprehensible /comprehensive
Comprehensible:able to be understood = intelligible 能够被理解的
Comprehensive: = inclusive/exhaustive *面的
4、Ignore / ignorant
很多学生认为ignorant是ignore的形容词,自然而然理解为“忽略的,忽视的”
其实ignorant 有两个不同的意思:
(1)lacking knowledge or awareness in general; uneducated or unsophisticated: 表示没有知识的,缺乏教育的,无知的,愚蠢的,含贬义;
看词典例句: he was told constantly that he was ignorant and stupid.
(2)Be ignorant of : without knowledgeof, unaware of, unconscious of, oblivious to 不熟悉,不知道,不了解
5、Specious / special
Specious: superficially plausible, but actually wrong: a specious argument ? misleading in appearance, especially misleadingly attractive: the music trade gives Golden Oldies a specious appearance of novelty.
贬义,似是而非的,误导人的 = false/ spurious/ misleading
special: 独特的不同的
6、Ingenious / ingenuous
太容易混淆的单词!一定要区分开!
看英文词典:
Ingenious means ‘clever, skillful, resourceful’聪明
ingenuous means ‘artless,frank’ (charmed by the ingenuous honesty of the child)。天真,纯真
7、Vindicate / vindictive
Vindicate有两种含义:
(1)使脱罪= acquit/clear/absolve
(2)支持,证实 = confirm/justify/corroborate
8、unequal/unequaled
Unequal:不平等,不公平
Unequaled: unmatched, unrivaled, unsurpassed, unparalleled,second to none
高亮没错,这几个单词,都不是不匹配,不平等,不超过,而是无人能够匹配的,无人能够与之相并论的,无人能敌的,就是很厉害的意思,相当于unique,一定要记清楚。
