N，D和L等，这样记起来既不觉得累又有成就感。一定记住吴老师的建议：每天晚上看1-2页，把自己已经记住的暂时划出来，无论多忙，当天晚上睡觉前和第二天早上都要把学习的单词复习一遍，然后再分别过3天、7天、15天、30天各复习一遍，坚持下来，到考前一周看最后一遍时，你会觉得大部分单词都已经很熟悉了。另外，务必要把自己做过的历年真题或模拟题中的词汇题集中整理起来，这样的对比记忆特别有助于我们对近义近形词汇的辨析。这样坚持学习，双管齐下，一定会取得良好学习效果！ abide 遵循（…by）；容忍 The one thing she cannot abide is lying. abnormal 反常的 abnormal behavior
