Day 9 Chapter 13

My understanding of this chapter

The author discussed how to write a place by three parts: First, write the specific characteristics; second, focus on the style, which embodied in words, temperament and anchorage; third, write about human activity in that place.

读完这一章,我自己会回想曾经旅游过的地方,我印象最深的地方是哪里?如果要表写,我会怎么来写呢?我想到在拉萨的一些画面,如今印象最深刻的不是壮丽的布达拉宫,而是面馆里一个一向认生的小女baby主动投向我的怀抱;还有洱海吧,不是因电影而出名的那个拍照地点,而是自己一个人骑着电动车3个小时内往返“小普陀”的过程,37公里/小时的速度,恐怕是目前最快的记录了。

Vocabulary

genius-tinkerers

genius noun.

解释:very great and rare natural ability or skill, especially in a particular area such as science or art, or a person who has this:

例子:Einstein was a (mathematical) genius.

容易和这个genius混淆的词语

genuine 

解释1:If something is genuine, it is real and exactly what it appears to be: 

例子1:If it is a genuine Michelangelo drawing, it will sell for millions

解释2:If people or emotions are genuine, they are honest and sincere: 

例子2:He's a very genuine person.

tinker 是verb 不是 noun

解释:to make small changes to something, especially in an attempt to repair or improve it: He spends every weekend tinkering (around) with his car.

所以genius-tinkerer应该是天才修理师的意思吧
