1. 认识这个词(基础篇)

词:perpetuate

英英释义:to make something such as a situation or process continue, especially one that is wrong, unfair, or dangerous

例句:Social media influencers are perpetuating false perceptions of reality.

2. 体会这个词 (进阶篇)

“perpetuate”是个动词,意思是“使(不好的情况)持续下去”,是个高频、地道的词。perpetuate 后面常接表示错误观念、分歧、负面境况的词,比如 myth/misconception/division/inequality,我们通过几个例句学习它的用法。

比如一些网红会在社交媒体上用漂亮的照片展示他们的生活有多么美好,他们的关注者们可能会因此越来越看不清现实:

Some influencers on social media are always perpetuating false perceptions of reality.

许多英语教育机构利用网络营销,其中有些广告和营销手段往往会加深学习者对英语学习的误区,让学习者更焦虑:

Some marketing gimmicks and promotions tend to perpetuate misconceptions and anxiety about English learning.

最后看几个《经济学人》中出现的 perpetuate:

1) Teenage pregnancy perpetuates the cycle of poverty.

2) The hukou perpetuates a rigid caste system.

3) Private education also perpetuates disadvantage and exclusion.(说到私立教育的负面影响时就可以用这句话)

3. 从认识到会用(作业)

1)翻译下面的句子: 私立学校因持续助长特权而受到批评。

(参考翻译: Private schools are criticized for perpetuating privilege.)

作业:

1.私立学校因持续助长特权而受到批评。

Private schools are criticized for perpetuating privilege.

2.他对科研持续增长的厌恶是很没有帮助的。

The perpetuating aversion to the research is helpless for him.
