延期,推迟
记忆技巧
拆分联想
将单词拆分为 'post'(邮寄) + 'pone'(谐音'破呢') + 'ment'(名词后缀)。联想:邮寄(post)的东西破了(pone),需要延期(postponement)送达。
谐音记忆
谐音'抛斯破呢门特',想象一个人因为'抛斯'(pose)动作'破呢'(摔倒了),所以'门特'(比赛)被延期了。
例句
The meeting was scheduled for today, but it has been postponed to next week due to the bad weather. (会议原定今天举行,但因天气不好被推迟到下周了。)
