2.creative adj. create v.
3.energetic adj. energy n.能量; 活力; 精力; 精神; 复数：energies
4.come up with 想出/think of
区别： catch up 和 catch up with都是赶上的意思（由其指功课、进度）
catch up with 后面可以接人就是赶上某某人的意思
catch up:
If you miss a lot of classes, it's very difficult to catch up.
catch up with:
At the moment our technology is more advanced, but other countries are catching up with us.
5.neither
Neither……nor…/either …..or…/ both …and..
both...and 指的是两者都是
neither...nor 指的是两者都不是(就近远则)
either...or 指的是两者之一（就近原则）
neither of 指的是没有一个，三者或三者以上都不是（就近原则）
就近原则指的是be 动词和行为动词的用法取决于距离较近的主语的单复数。
就前，是指前面的主语对be 动词和行为动词的用法取决定作用。
谓语单和谓语复，是指谓语的单复数形式也是由距离近的主语来决定的。
For example：Both Tom and Jim are good students.
Neither Tom nor Jim is good student.
Either Tom or Jim is good student.
Neither of them is good student.
accountant n.会计 count v.数 account n. 账目，账
三种句型
①impress sb.=have an effect on sb.
Your school impressed me deeply. How did our school impress you
②be impressed by/with was impressed by/with your school beautifully.
How did you impressed by our school
③leave/make/have an impression on sb.
Your school left/made/had a beautiful impression on me.What impression did our school make on you
8.praise n. 表扬，赞扬（不可数名词） vt..赞扬 praise sb. for sth. 表扬某人某事
Proud骄傲的，自豪的（形容词），pride骄傲，自豪（名词）。
be proud of 以...为荣; 以...自豪
take pride in 以...自豪
同样的意思，但可以看出名词和形容词的用法是有差异的。形容词前用be动词.
9. general adj. in (the) general 一般来说…. generally adv. Generally speaking,总的来说….
10.miss n. 错过 v.错过 miss doing sth
She missed seeing the film.
adj.丢失的v.想念
11.attention
pay attention to 后面可以直接加名词、代词或者动名词，但是值得我们注意的是，这里的to是一个介词，并不是能构成动词不定式的，这和look forward to是一样的。所以呢，这个词组后面要接动词的话，那麽就要在动词后加ing了。Pay attention to doing sth
例句：
1. We had paid attention to him. 我们已经注意到他了。（接代词）
2. They paid attention to watching the scene. 他们注意到了观察现场（接动词+ing）
这个要弄明白的，历年中考都会有这个单词，包括到了高中。
12.pioneer
Young pioneer少先队员
13.carelessness
care, careless, carelessness
14.devote
(1)devote用作及物动词，意为“把……献给；把……用在”，常与介词to搭配，构成devote ... to ...结构，介词to之后跟名词或动词-ing形式。如：
I don’t think we should devote any more time to this question.
我认为我们不应该在这个问题上花更多的时间。
He devoted his whole life to teaching.
他把毕生精力献给了教学。
[联想] devoted adj. 忠实的
(2) devote oneself to 致力于，献身于
[例句] For four years he devoted himself to music.
四年来，他全力倾注于音乐。

他献身于帮助穷人。
[小试] 翻译下列句子。
1． 你不应该把闲暇时间用在玩电脑游戏上。
2． 王医生致力于癌症的治疗。
3． 医护人员应该致力于照料病人。
Key:
1. You shouldn’t devote your spare time to playing computer games.
2. Dr. Wang devoted himself to the cure for cancer.
3. Doctors and nurses should devote themselves to caring for the sick.
15.impatient 否定前缀
un-
unfinished（未完成的） unhealthy（不健康的）
in- invisible, incredible
im- impossible, immoral, inland, invade, inside, import
ir- irregular ， irresponsible
dis- dishonest, dislike, disarm, disconnect
un- unload, uncover, undoubted, unemployment, unabashed

17.appear v. appearance n.
18.agree
agree with sb/ agree on or about sth /agree to do sth
I couldn't agree with you more.我非常同意你的看法（注意这是固定句型，助动词必须用couldn't，而不可用can't）
三、核心语法：
and/ but /or/ so
and：和；而且；又；然后
表示联合，意为“和”、“又”、“而且” 有时用于连接两个相同的词语，表示事物连续性
The train ran faster and faster. 火车开得越来越快
(1)but 用法连词，表示让步关系，意思是“除非，要不是”，常与that一起构成but that, 相当于"if...not"。 例如：I would have failed but that your helped me.要不是你们帮助我，我就会失败
(2)but用于否定词加doubt, question, deny等到之后，没有实在意义，只相当于关系连词that. 例如： There's no doubt but he is a thief.毫无疑问，他是一个贼。
(3)but用作介词，表示“除了”意义，相当于besides, except.例如：No one knows him but she. 除了她，没有人认识她。
so：所以
(1).so可以用作连词，表示“因此，所以”。
例：I heard some noise outside, so I went out of the room to see why.
so that作为连词词组，表示 “以便，为了”。
例：The vase is put high on the table, so that it won’t be broken.
(2) so可以用作副词，表示——
1)“如此，这么”结构为：so+adj./adv
例：She was so tired that she fell asleep very fast.
表示此意思时，还可以用：so+adj.+a/an+n.
例：It is so good a movie that everyone who saw it praises it very much.
2)“如此，如是”，用于表示已经提到的想法，建议或情况等
例：“Will I need my umbrella ”
“I think so.”
3)“也是，也一样”结构为so+助动词/情态动词/be动词+主语
例：Tony takes exercise every day and so does his younger brother.
注意否定句应把so改为neither/nor，结构为neither/nor+助动词/情态动词/be动词+主语
例：Jenny has never been late for class.Neither/Nor her younger brother.
4)“确实是这样”，表示对前面陈述事实的强调，结构为so+主语+助动词/情态动词/be动词
例：Tony works very hard at all the subjects.So he does.
or：或；否则
Hurry up， or youll be late.快点，否则就要迟到了。这里or表示“否则，不然的话”
You may do it yourself， or ask someone else to do it.你可以自己做，也可以要别人做。这里or就是表选择。”或者“的意思。连接两个成分（名词，短语或句子。）
He hardly ever goes to the cinema or the theatre.他几乎从来不去电影院或剧院。这里的or肯定也表示选择了。
2. both …and…/not only…but(also)…/either…or…/neither…nor… not only... but (also)...
not only... but (also)...在句中常用来连接两个对等的成分，also可以省略。
如：She speaks Russian not only in class but (also) at home.她在课堂上和家里都说俄语。
not only... but (also)... 用来连接两个主语时，谓语动词的单、复数遵循“就近原则”，即和but (also)后的名词或代词的数一致。如：Not only you but also he is tired of having one examination after another.不但你，而且他也讨厌一次接一次的考试。
not only... but (also)... 连接两个分句，当not only位于句首，前一个分句常用倒装来表示强调，而but (also)后的分句仍用陈述语序。如：Not only does Miss Li like music, but (also) she likes sports. 李小姐不但喜欢音乐，而且还喜欢体育。
【注意】使用中注意两点：
1、就近。指谓语形式取决于离它近的主语。
Not only the students but also the teacher reads English every day.
2、一致。not only 与 but also后面所接的词类要一致。
She can not only sing but also dance.
【用法小结】　
1. not only … but also 应连接两个相对称的并列成分。例如：
Not only Mr Lin but also his son joined the Party two years ago. （连接两个主语）
I not only play tennis but also practise shooting. （连接两个谓语动词）
He plays not only the piano but also the violin. （连接两个宾语）
They speak English not only in class but also in the dormitory. （连接两个地点状语）
【注】
1）.She not only sings well but also dances beautifully. = She doesn't only sing well but also dances beautifully.
2）.句子 He not only plays the piano but also the violin 不是好的文体，因为 but also 之后的成分与 not only 之后的成分不对称。
2. not only … but also 连接两个分句，并且 not only 位于句首时，第一个分句中的主语和谓语要部分倒装。例如：
Not only does the sun give us light but also it gives us heat.
　 Not only did he speak English correctly， but also he speaks it fluently.
　Not only is this young man clever but also he is hardworking.
3. not only … but also 不能用在否定句中。例如：
　　误： They don't fear not only hardship but also death.
　　正： They fear neither hardship nor death.
正： They don't fear either hardship or death.
4. not only … but also 连接两个主语时，谓语动词要和与其最近的主语保持人称和数的一致。例如：
Not only the students but also the teacher was against the plan. / Not only the teacher but also the students were against the plan.
5. not only … but also 中的 not only 不能分开使用，但 but also 却可以分开使用。例如：
The area was not only hit by an unexpected heavy rain， but some bridges were also washed away.
6. not only … but also 连接两个并列成分时，可以省略 but 或 also ，也可以把 but also 都省略掉。例如：
　I not only heard it but （ also ） saw it.
　He was not only compelled（被迫） to stay at home，（ but ） also forbidden（禁止） to see his friend.
　She not only finished the task ahead of time， （ but also ） she came to help us.

Have you ever wanted to achieve something really amazing in life？Well，Greg Mortenson wanted to climb a mountain，but he ended up helping thousands of people to have a better life.
Greg's story began with failure. In 1993，he set out to climb K2，the world's second highest mountain. But Greg never made it to the top. After five days，he stumbled （踉跄） into the village of Korphe in northern Pakistan，injured （受伤） and hungry. The kind villagers there looked after him for several days.
Greg saw that the villagers were very poor and hungry，and some of them were ill. Also，the village school didn't have a roof and the children wrote on the ground with sticks. Greg knew he wanted to do something to help. "I'll build you a school，" he told the villagers. "I promise."
Greg went back home to the USA to raise money for the school. He even lived in the car to save money! Finally he went back to Korphe and built the school. But this was just the beginning of something bigger! Since then，Greg's organization has built around 80 schools in Pakistan and other countries，too.

Shang Yang was a politician of the Qin state. He was very wise and forward—thinking （有远见的）.He worked out several reform plans for the state，including focusing on farming and giving rewards （奖赏） to soldiers who were successful during war.
But at the beginning，these reforms were not easily carried out. Only a few people in the state understood Shang's talent and the advantages of his plans. Most people had little trust and confidence in him.
To solve this problem，Shang came up with an idea. He ordered some soldiers to put a thin wooden pole at the south gate of the Qin state capital. This attracted many people. Then，in front of the crowd，he said loudly： "People of Qin，whoever takes this pole to the north gate will get a reward of 10 gold pieces."
It was a simple task and the reward was big. Some time passed and no one stepped forward. They all thought that Shang was joking. Hearing no answer，Shang stepped forward and said， "I will increase the reward to 50 gold pieces."
The words sounded even more unbelievable. Finally，a man from the crowd came forward to take the pole. He put the pole on his shoulders and walked to the north gate. True to his word，Shang paid the man 50 gold pieces.
Soon，the people were saying that Shang was a man of his word. When he began promoting （推行） his reforms，the people followed and did not question him.
