资源整合 10月7日学习记录

上午陪着闺女去买了泳镜,一上午就泡在了国信游泳池中,还去成人馆中游了700米,学会了观察别人的游泳姿势去优化自己的模式,这次去的小伙伴数量不多,闺女提不起精神来,12点就吵着回家了。下午狠狠的睡了一觉,好久都未有这样可以狠狠睡的机会了,处理了俱乐部27次会议的小事之后,开始了今天的GRE词汇学习。


说起词汇学习,在国内可是盛行已久,只要是经历过高考、四六级考试的战士们没有不知道背单词的含义的,手里拿着五颜六色、五花八门的单词书,充分利用各种空隙来背单词,真是的煞费苦心呀,结果往往是收效甚微呀!

这次我结合前段时间视频英语学习的经历,虽然自己现在的听力火候还不到炉火纯青的地步,但是努力曾来都是不曾放下的坚持。今天学习的单词有:

Vindicate

Criminals are known for their venality, being willing to break the law for a financial reward.
