/ˈtʌmbrəl/
a farm cart or wagon, especially one used to carry condemned people to their execution during the French Revolution,中文含义:农用推车(尤指法国大革命期间运送死刑犯的囚车)
记忆技巧
谐音+联想
将单词发音拆解为“汤不热”+“L”。想象法国大革命时,囚犯被押送时喊着“汤不热了(tumbrel)!快给我喝热汤!”(因为上了囚车就再没机会喝汤了)。滑稽的场景能强化记忆。
图像记忆
画一个带轮子的汤锅(tum+brel谐音“汤锅”),锅上坐着绝望的囚犯,车轮印拼出单词字母。
例句
The aristocrats were taken to the guillotine in a creaking tumbrel.(贵族们被吱嘎作响的囚车送上了断头台。)
