52、vere father 都可以用,但含义稍有不同:a severe father指对于子女有严厉的要求,积极的意义较多;a stern father 则指对子女不含温情,要他们服从,消极的意味较多。 strict 相当于汉语的 “严格的”,须先假定有一种客观的标准(如规章、纪律、定义、真理等)。例如:- The teacher is strict with his students.- There is a strict regulation against smoking in the auditorium.tackle: vt. deal with- Toshiba (东芝) recent

55、sts forced some African countries to ask for foreign aid.)- The Fall of the Roman Empire was written in historical sequence.CF: sequence & seriessequence 是指“先后衔接的次序”。这种次序可以是历史性的,即事态发生时的先后次序;也可以是逻辑性的,即论点先后的衔接,相当于汉语的“语无伦次”中的“伦次”。例如:- I have a poor memory for dates and often mix up the sequence of even
56、ts. (我记日期的能力很差,常把事情的先后次序弄混。)- Your argument lacks logical sequence, for your second point does not follow the first. (你的论据缺乏逻辑顺序,因为你的第二点与第一点衔接不上。)series 是指“系列”、“组”,可以有先后衔接的次序,也可以没有,但一系列或一组的东西一定自成一个完整的单位。例如:- Professor Li will give a series of lectures on the Middle East issue. (李教授将就中东问题做一系列的讲座。)- T

58、)- I recognize the face but cant recall her name.- I dont recall ever meeting her.- She recalled that she had to see the doctor again that afternoon.CF: recall, remember & remind 这三个词都与“记忆”有关,前两个词有时可通用。recall“想起”,把忘记的东西又想起来了,其动作包含有意识的努力,因此常与 can,could 等词连用,强调一次的回忆。例如:- Try as I might, I could not re
59、call where I had left the book. (我怎么也想不起来我把书丢在哪里了。)- I remember her face but I cannot recall where I met her. (我记得她的脸,但是想不起在什么地方见过她。)remember “想起”,用处比较广泛,指事物自然在记忆中出现,不包含努力或意志。例如:- I suddenly remembered I had left the book in the library. (我突然想起我把书忘在图书馆里了。)如果 remember 表示有意识的行动,常指“记住”。例如:- You must re
60、member this phone number. (你必须记住这个电话号码。)remind 指“使某人想起”,“提醒”,宾语是人。具体用法如下:1) 接宾语; 2) 接宾语+of+宾语;3) 接宾语+不定式;4) 接宾语+that-clause。 例如:1) If I forget it, please remind me. (如果我忘了,请提醒我。)2) This reminds me of last year. (这使我想起去年的事。)3) Remind me to write to my Mom. (提醒我给妈妈写信。)4) The sight of the clock reminde
