The Meaning of Words
In this lesson, we learn the importance of understanding the meaning of words in order to effectively communicate in a foreign language.
The author begins by explaining that when learning a new language, we often rely on translation to understand the meaning of words. However, this can be misleading as words in different languages may not have exact equivalents. Instead, the author suggests that we should try to understand the meaning of words within the context in which they are used.
To illustrate this point, the author provides an example of the word "apologize." In English, the word is used to express regret or say sorry. However, in some other languages, there may not be a direct translation for this word. Instead, people may use different phrases or expressions to convey a similar meaning. Therefore, simply translating the word may not capture its true essence.
The author also highlights the importance of understanding idiomatic expressions. These are phrases or expressions that have a different meaning from their literal interpretation. For example, the phrase "kick the bucket" is used to mean "to die" in English. Translating this phrase word-for-word would not make sense to someone who is not familiar with the idiom.
The lesson concludes by emphasizing the need for learners to develop a sense of the meaning of words rather than relying solely on translations. By understanding the context in which words are used and recognizing idiomatic expressions, learners can better grasp the true meaning of words in a foreign language.
In summary, this lesson teaches us that understanding the meaning of words goes beyond simply translating them. It is important to consider the context in which words are used and be aware of idiomatic expressions. By doing so, we can communicate more effectively in a foreign language.

The Importance of Vocabulary in Language Learning
In this lesson, we learn about the significance of vocabulary in language learning and how it contributes to effective communication.
The author begins by explaining that vocabulary is the foundation of language. Without a strong vocabulary, it is difficult to express oneself and understand others. Therefore, building a wide range of vocabulary is essential for language learners.
The author emphasizes the importance of learning vocabulary in context. Instead of memorizing isolated words, learners should focus on understanding how words are used in sentences and in different situations. This helps to develop a deeper understanding of the meaning and usage of words.
Furthermore, the author highlights the role of collocations in vocabulary learning. Collocations are words that are often used together and have a natural connection. For example, we say "make a decision" instead of "do a decision." Learning collocations helps learners to use words correctly and fluently in conversation.
The lesson also discusses the use of technology in vocabulary learning. Technology provides learners with various tools and resources to expand their vocabulary. Online dictionaries, flashcards, and language learning apps are just a few examples of how technology can enhance vocabulary acquisition.
The author concludes by emphasizing the need for regular practice and revision to retain and expand vocabulary. Language learners should make a conscious effort to incorporate new words into their daily conversations and reading materials. By doing so, learners can improve their language skills and communicate effectively.
In summary, this lesson highlights the importance of vocabulary in language learning. Learners should focus on understanding words in context and learning collocations. Technology can also be a valuable resource for expanding vocabulary. Regular practice and revision are necessary to retain and expand vocabulary.
新概念英语第二册逐句精讲语言点第54课 篇三
Lesson 54: Sticky fingers 粘糊的手指After breakfast, I sent the children to school and then I went to the shops. It was still early when I returned home. The children were at school, my husband was at work and the house was quiet. So I decided to make some meat pies. In a short time I was busy mixing butter and flour and my hands were soon covered with sticky pastry. At exactly that moment, the telephone rang. Nothing could have been more annoying. I picked up the receiver between two sticky fingers and was dismayed when I recognized the voice of Helen Bates. It took me ten minutes to persuade her to ring back later. At last I hung up the receiver. What a mess! There was pastry on my fingers, on the telephone, and on the doorknobs. I had no sooner got back to the kitchen than the doorbell rang loud enough to wake the dead. This time it was the postman and he wanted me to sign for a register
