對(duì)啊

今日重點(diǎn)：

令人擔(dān)憂的：alarming。alarm是名詞“驚恐；警報(bào)器”。alarm clock，鬧鐘

校長(zhǎng)：principal。注意區(qū)分“原則principle”（這兩個(gè)詞的發(fā)音相同）

害怕：freak out。我很害怕：I'm freaking out.

糖衣：sugarcoat。這個(gè)詞作動(dòng)詞就是“粉飾”的意思。而糖衣炮彈就是sugar-coated bullets。bullet是“子彈”的意思

無知：ignorance。動(dòng)詞“忽視”是ignore

謊言：falsehood，正式說法，多用于書面用語
