考研必考词组18

考研英语改革后，考研英语新大纲给出的考研词汇尚有两个重要问题急需解决，那就是缺少"单词的汉语释义"和"英文词组"两问题，而词组问题更是广大考生头疼的问题，因为大纲中没有收录任何关词组的范围和汉语释义。这就需全凭考生自行解决。

参考了牛津Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary of Current English (Sixth edition)，剑桥Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary，朗文NEWUPDATED - Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English Online，韦氏Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary 等词典最新版的`

英文释义，并给出了精准的汉语释义，以期提高同学们的英文水平
