講到abrupt看看哪些單詞以rupt為詞根
bankrupt
1“破產(chǎn)的”,bank表古代商人的錢袋。例:The company went bankrupt during the economic crisis.這家公司在經(jīng)濟(jì)危機(jī)時(shí)破產(chǎn)了。
講到economic順便講一下它的形近詞:
economy有兩個(gè)含義:
(1)“經(jīng)濟(jì)情況,體制”例:The new oil that we have found will improve our economy.在這里發(fā)現(xiàn)的石油將提高我們的經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況。capitalist economy資本主義經(jīng)濟(jì)體制
(2)“節(jié)約”,如practice economy例行節(jié)約
economic“經(jīng)濟(jì)的”,來(lái)源于economy的第1個(gè)含義,如economic policy / development經(jīng)濟(jì)政策 / 發(fā)展
economical“節(jié)約的”,來(lái)源于economy的第2個(gè)含義,如an economical car經(jīng)濟(jì)型汽車
economics“經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)”
economist“經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)家”
2“使破產(chǎn)”,例:The investment in the securities bankrupted him.在證券業(yè)的投資,使他徹底破產(chǎn)了。vest背心,invest把背心都投進(jìn)去,“投資”。Securities“證券”,secure形容詞表“安全的”,動(dòng)詞表“經(jīng)過(guò)艱苦努力而得到”,例:They have managed to secure the loan from the bank.他們終于從銀行里得到了貸款。
Interrupt=inter + rupt兩個(gè)相互聯(lián)系的事件被斷開(kāi)
1“打擾”。例:Don’t interrupt me while I’m busy.在我忙的時(shí)候千萬(wàn)不要打擾我。bother跟brother兄弟很像,例:Sorry to bother you.很抱歉打擾你了。Excuse me.是打擾別人之前說(shuō),而Sorry to bother you.是打擾人之后說(shuō)。表示“打擾,干擾”的單詞是disturb,它還有一個(gè)含義是“使不安”,如a piece of disturbing news.一條使人不安消息。
2“暫時(shí)中斷”,例:Trade between the two countries was interrupted by the World War Two.由于二戰(zhàn),兩國(guó)的貿(mào)易中斷了。
erupt=e(out)+ rupt
1“火山噴發(fā)”,很好理解,火山是從大陸版塊破裂的地方噴發(fā),它噴發(fā)時(shí)是流淌出來(lái)嗎?不是,是out噴出來(lái)。
2“(戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)危機(jī))突然爆發(fā)”,例:Violence erupted after the negotiation.談判后爆發(fā)了暴力沖突。
rupture
1“破裂”,如the rupture of the blood vessel血管破裂
2有比喻意,如the rupture of the friendly relations between the two countries兩國(guó)友好關(guān)系的破裂
disrupt=dis(away)+ rupt,舉個(gè)例子,我們現(xiàn)在正在開(kāi)會(huì),又強(qiáng)又砸,于是這個(gè)會(huì)議就break了,而且我們還會(huì)away,躲得遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)的?!笆够靵y,擾亂”,它不止有中斷打擾的意思,還有被破壞且在短期內(nèi)不能恢復(fù)的含義。例:The accident has disrupted the railway services in and out of the cities.那起交通事故擾亂整個(gè)鐵路的進(jìn)出系統(tǒng)。disrupt名詞為disruption,例:The strike has caused the disruption of transport services.罷工導(dǎo)致了整個(gè)運(yùn)輸系統(tǒng)的混亂。
corrupt=cor + rupt
2“使貪污,腐敗,敗壞”,例:The pornography spread by the Internet has corrupted the minds of the young people.由網(wǎng)絡(luò)傳播的色情腐蝕著年輕人的思想。
構(gòu)詞法:詞根con,當(dāng)后面的詞根首字母為輔音字母時(shí),n變成此輔音字母,如collaborate=col + labor + ate大家一起勞動(dòng),“合作”,cooperation=co + operation一起操作,“合作”。
