　　大学应该是一个用英语战斗的时代：用英文获得专业最新信息；直接阅读英美主要杂志(非常难懂)；用英语参与国际会议和谈判；用英语发表论文；用英语介绍中国产品(包括写说明书、广告词等)和中国文化；用英语进行国际政治、经济、商业和文化交流等等。那么如何做到这一步呢？下面是一些简单的建议：

　　一：疯狂地扩充单词

　　特别是六星级名词、动词、副词和形容词。

　　Many people are sensitive to the odor of onions, and whenever they cut onions, the people’s eyes secrete tears.

　　(许多人对洋葱的气味很敏感，当他们切洋葱的时候，就会流眼泪/他们的眼睛就会分泌眼泪)

　　Since the couple could not reconcile their differences, they decided to get a divorce.

　　(由于这对夫妇之间的分歧无法得到和解，所以他们决定离婚。)

　　Are you positive he’s the man you saw yesterday?

　　(你能确定他就是你昨天见到的那这人吗？)

　　She said she didn’t like it, but personally I thought it was very good.

　　(她说她不喜欢这个，但我个人认为它非常好。)

　　The present system is considerably more efficient than the old one.

　　(现在的方法比旧方法有效的多。)

　　Movement can be painful when you’ve hurt your back.

　　(如果你的背受了伤，一动就会痛。)

　　I noticed a sudden movement behind the curtain.

　　(我发现幕布后面突然有动静。)

　　He’d made a bad mistake, but tried to minimize its seriousness. (= treat it as if it were not serious)

　　(他犯了一个很严重的错误，但他试图把它的严重性说成很小/却想办法缩小其严重性。)

　　In most counties, the taxes that people pay are regulated by law. People pay a certain percentage of their income, and they also pay a certain percentage of tax on merchandise they buy.

　　(在大多数国家，人们纳税是由法律所规定的。人们要交纳他们收入的一部分/一定百分比作为所得税，而且他们还要对所购买的商品交纳一定百分比的税/消费税。)

　　He’s very old, and his movements are getting slower and slower.

　　(他年纪很大，动作越来越慢了。)

　　二、疯狂扩充成语

　　成语是一门语言的精华，是外语学习的“特大”难点！是听力、阅读和语法结构考试的“拦路虎”！是一个人英语走向成功的“最终障碍”！

　　掌握成语是人生真正走上“高级”成功之路的人！

　　凡是包含成语的句子在疯狂英语心目中都是高级的、六星级的句子！

　　1 When my brother went to work in the U.S.A for a year the whole family went to see him off at the airport.

　　(当我哥哥离家去美国工作一年的时候，我们全家去飞机场送行)

　　2 Now listen to me, darling. I understand your feelings about John’s looks and his personality but he has a good job and you are almost thirty. You can’t turn down his proposal.

　　(亲爱的，听我说，我理解你对约翰的长相和性格有看法，但他的工作不错，你也快三十了，你不能拒绝他的求婚。)

　　3 Joe’s wife wouldn’t put up with his smoking in their house, so he had to smoke his cigarettes outside even in winter.
