7/15Verse of the week:要進窄門

本週聖句 Verse of the week:

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
—Matthew 7:13-14


  • narrow(adj)窄的,狹窄的-------------------wide/borad(adj)寬闊廣大的
  • gate:在中國人看來,無論是"門口",還是院開的"大門",或者屋子的"房門"都叫"門",而英文則分為三個詞"entrance、gate和door".

辨析gate與door 
兩個詞都有“門”的意思,但gate指大門口。例如:the factory gate ; the park gate 
door指屋子,衣櫃等“門”或“門口”。
例如:
④ Close the door when you go out .出去時請關門。⑤ He is waiting for you at the park gate .他在公園門口等你。
  • lead to ( lead/led/led)1.把....帶到,領到,(道路)通向   2.導致,引起 
  • The bell-boy led us to our rooms.
  • 旅館服務員把我們帶到了我們的房間。
  • An ordinary cold can soon lead to a fever.
  • 一場普通的感冒很快便會引起高燒。
  • destruction     
  • destroy(v)
  • few/ a few 兩個字都是”很少的“(記憶法:a few比few多一個字母,所以a few比較多)
  • few + 可數名詞(countable) little + 不可數名詞(uncountable/mass)
  • a few / a little - 具有肯定的含義,還有一些的意思,勉強夠用(positive) few / little - 為否定含義,剩沒多少,根本不夠用(negative)
