PERFECT

1. 英英释义:to make something as good as you are able to

例句:Jiro Ono, arguably the best living Japanese sushi chef, has devoted his entire life to perfecting the art of sushi.

2. 体会这个词 (进阶篇)

“perfect”既可以作形容词也可以作动词,作动词的意思是“使......完美、提高”,可以和 improve 同义替换。 略有不同的是,perfect 更能体现一个人的决心和持久力,有精益求精、匠人之心的意思。 从 perfect 的动词意思也可以看得出,它后面经常会接 skill, technique 等词。

注意:perfect 作形容词的读音是/ˈpəːfɪkt/;作动词时,它的读音和重音都会发生变化,读成/pəˈfɛkt/。    

下面来看几个例句。    

日本寿司之神小野次郎穷尽一生精进寿司手艺,用英语可以这么表达:    

Jiro Ono, arguably the best living Japanese sushi chef, has devoted his entire life to  perfecting  the art of sushi. (这句话中的 art 也有 skill 的意思,比如还有 the art of public speaking, the art of persuasion, the art of acting 等)

奥巴马是在大学时期不断提高自己的口才的,就可以说:    

It was in college that Barack Obama  perfected  the art of oratory/public speaking.

Sherry 老师一直在找机会精进自己的咖啡拉花(latte art)技术,我们就可以这么写:   

Sherry has taken every opportunity to  perfect  her latte art.

NBA 球星史蒂芬•库里以出色的运球技能闻名,可能没有谁比他在运球上更追求精益求精了:    

When it comes to  perfecting  the dribbling technique, perhaps no other basketball player has worked harder than Stephen Curry, a six-time NBA All-Star.

3. 从认识到会用(作业) 

1)翻译下面的句子:    

他是在德国读本科期间提高了自己的德语能力。 (重点:强调句,perfect his German=perfect himself in German)

It was during the undergraduate years that he perfected his German. 

造句:

例1:We went to great lengths to rewrite the IELTS sample sentence so as to perfect our essay writing skills. 我们费劲改写雅思例句,为的是磨砺论文写作技能 

例2:When it comes to perfecting the art of suchi, perhaps no other cook has worked harder than Jiro Ono, arguably the best living Japanese sushi chef.  改写例句

例3:It is through learning life's lesssons that you see life as it meant to be rather than perfecting your life. 吃一堑长一智,而生活仍不完美。

个人拓展:

搭配: perfect the skill/ technique/ know-how/  art

adj   a perfect fool, a perfect stranger, be perfect for sb/ sth

Practice makes perfect. /Practice makes permanent. 

perfect his art of public speaking=perfect himself in the art of public speaking

背诵:

perfect, hone

It was during the undergraduate years that he perfected his German.
