Don Corleone rose from behind the desk. His face was still impassive but his voice rang like cold death. “We have known each other many years, you and I,” he said to the undertaker, “but until this day you never came to me for counsel or help. I can’t remember the last time you invited me to your house for coffee though my wife is godmother to your only child. Let us be frank. You spurned my friendship. You feared to be in my debt.”

上面这段话摘自教父，里面可能不认识的单词有

impassive

undertaker

counsel

godmother

spurn

一般人觉得查下生词就够了

这种做法就很低效了：不要只知道记生词，应该记搭配

你得知道这个词是怎么用的

像undertaker，godmother这种简单的单词，就不必特别留心，知道意思就够了，但是且慢，里面的搭配还有

My wife is godmother to your only child

如果说成My wife is your only child's godmother，就感觉怪怪的

所以你就记住了，godmother可以和to来搭配，也就be godmother to sb.

还有一个

不要只记impassive的意思

而应该记住 his face is impassive，这样你就明白可以用来形容face

不要只记住counsel什么意思

还要记住come to me for counsel，或者come for counsel

不要只查spurn什么意思

还应该记spurn my friendship

在看书的时候，不要只知道查字典，而应该稍微注意下，这个单词的前后搭配和句式的关系，不用特别特别的死记硬背，没事就多留意，多读书，这样很多常见的搭配，常用的动词和副词介词以及形容词就会反复出现，深深的印在你的脑子里，很快你的表达能力就嗖嗖的上涨，这样才能做到读书破万卷，下笔如有神

你问我怎么增加主动词汇，表达能力怎么来，光是看看书，左眼看右眼出，光是死记硬背单词意思，当然提高不了主动词汇量，所以一定要多留意生词的前后搭配，这样简短的搭配和词组，记忆量比死记整个句子轻很多，比单独记一个单词又有用很多
