take part in 参加
take part in, join, join in, attend的区别
take part in 指参加某种活动，如体育、比赛、游戏、讨论、战斗等，并积极地起着作用。Join指参加某组织并成为一员。Join in 指参加活动或游戏，和take part in 相当。但join sb. in… （和某人一起做某事）,不等于take part in。attend表示参加会议（聚会）等。
eg: We all took part in (joined in) the sports meeting.
compete vi. 比赛，竞争，竞赛
compete in…在某方面竞争
compete for…为……而竞争
compete with/against 与……竞争
eg: He believed that nobody could compete with him.
competition n竞赛 competitor n 参赛者 competitive adj 竞赛的
host vt 主办，举办 n （待客的）主人
eg: When do you think China will the World Cup?
She was away, so her son acted as host.
英语中有许多词汇既可作动词，也可作名词：help, shop, talk 等。
used to do sth “过去常常做某事（现在已不）”
其中used to 看作情态动词，其否定形式和疑问形式为：1）否定：used not(usedn’t) to+do; did not(didn’t) use to+do 2）疑问：used+主语+to+do; did+主语+use to+do
eg: She usedn’t to play computer games, used she?
另外，1）be used to do sth.“被用于……”是use sth. to do sth.的被动形式，2）而be used to sth./doing sth.表示“习惯于做某事”。
eg: 1)Wood can be used to make desks.
2)I am used to the weather in Guangzhou.
*Every four years athletes from all over the world are admitted as competitor.
Every adj 与数词连用，“每（隔）…...”,具体用法是：
Every+基数词+复数名词（或+序数词+单数名词）
每年：every year
每两年（每隔一年）：every two years/every second year
每四年（每隔三年）：every four years/every fourth year
表示“每隔一“还可用every other+单数名词，如：every other day
“每隔几…..”用every few+复数名词，如every few metres,每隔几米
admit 允许（加入某组织或参加某个活动）常用被动
be admitted to(介词) 获准做某事
eg: He was admitted to the club after his tenth try.
be admitted as 作为…被接受
eg: He was admitted as a member of the baseball team.
承认，后接名词、动名词、从句或复合结构
eg: 她承认已经看过这些信。
She admitted having read the letter.
You must admit the job to be difficult.
读音规律：admit这类词的重音落在最后一个音节上，形成了事实上的重读闭音节，过去时和过去分词必须双写最后一个辅音字母，然后再加-ed。类似的还有: permit-permitted, refer-referred, prefer-preferred
all over the world （遍及）全世界
two sets of 文中译为“两种”，一般译为“两套，两组”
*Women are not only allowed to join in but (also) play a very important role especially in…
allow 可以组成几种短语：
1)allow sb. sth. 允许某人某事；
2)~ sb. in(out) 允许进入（出去）;
3)allow sb. to do sth. 允许某人做某事（不能说allow to do） ~ doing sth. 允许干某事。
与此类似的动词短语还有：advise sb. to do, advise doing sth. / permit(许可“法令，规章等”) sb. to do, permit doing sth. (encourage鼓励 / forbid 禁止)
eg: Passengers are not allowed to smoke in the waiting room.
在候车室乘客不允许吸烟。
We don’t allow smoking here.
我们不许在这里吸烟。
play a role(part) in “扮演一个角色，在…..起作用”
eg: 要管理好学校，校长起着重要作用。
The headmaster plays an important role in the good running of a school.
Not only…but (also)可连接各种成分，连接句子时，not only引起的部分需要倒装。如：Not only do the nurse want a pay increase, but also they want to reduce(减少) hours.
as well as 并列连词
1. 既……又；也；又。可连接两个并列成分，强调其前面的内容，因此连接并列主语时，谓语应与前面的主语保持人称和数的一致
eg: I as well as my sisters am going to the park for a picnic this Sunday.
2. 还可作“不但……而且“解，相当于not only…but also,但前者强调的中心在as well as之前，后者在but also之后。
eg: It is important for you as well as for me.
另外，as well 副词短语，意思为“也”，放在句末。当放在主要动词之前，前面有may, just等时，意为“也好，不妨，还不如”
如：He has not only finished his own work, but helped others as well.
他不仅完成了自己的工作，还帮助了其他人。
You might just as well tell me the truth.
*It’s just as much a competition among countries to host the Olympics as to win an Olympic medal.在所有参加竞争奥运会承办权的国家中获胜就如同获得一枚奥运会奖牌。
此句由as much as引起，第二个as后省略了a competition among countries
replace 取代；放回；替换
eg: he replace the book on the shelf.
have (no) chance of doing sth. 有（没）做……的机会
go with 伴随，与……搭配
relate to… “…….与……有关联（相关）”
eg: If you relate the results to the cause, you will find things are not that simple.
注意：A relates to B A与B有联系； relate A with/to B 把A与B联系起来

1)结婚，嫁，娶; 2)使结婚(marry…to…:使…同…结婚)
eg: 1)He married a pretty girl.
2)He will never marry his daughter to anyone whose family is poor.
be/get married(强调状态)＋ to(不能用with) sb 和……结婚
eg: He’s married to his job. 他全身心都投入到工作。
run against… 和……赛跑
no one will be pardon 没有人能被宽恕
hear of 听说
promise vt 1)允诺，答应 promise sb. sth.; promise (sb) to do sth.
2)有可能
eg: 1)He promised (her) never to tell a lie.
2) The clear sky promises fine weather.
vi 保证，有前途
eg: This project promises well. 这个工程大有前途。
n 诺言、字据，充当make, break, keep, carry out 的宾语
eg:If you make a promise, you should keep it, you ought not to break it
如果你作出允诺，就得守诺言，不应该违背诺言。
make sure +that clause 确定
