四、其他笔记精华摘抄
1、journal 和 dairy的区别
释义：“journal”和“diary”都有“日记,日志”的意思， a daily written record of (usually personal) experiences and observations；
区别：
前者多见于文作品,后者侧重于日常生活方面的记录。
一般认为女生的日记更常用“diary”
Example:
I kept a journal during my visit to China. (我在访问中国期间坚持写日志。)
Have you been reading my diary again? (你又在看我的日记吗?)
2、一般不说learn knowledge而是用acqurir或者gain。
3、reminisce是不及物动词，后面跟名词要加about.
