sequence & series
sequence 是指“先后衔接的次序”。这种次序可以是历史性的,即事态发生时的先后次序;也可以是逻辑性的,即论点先后的衔接,相当于汉语的“语无伦次”中的“伦次”。
series 是指“系列”、“组”,可以有先后衔接的次序,也可以没有,但一系列或一组的东西一定自成一个完整的单位。例如:
I have a poor memory for dates and often mix up the ___ of events.
Professor Li will give a ____ of lectures on the Middle East issue.
The post office has issued a ____ of stamps commemorating the Olympic Games.

I don’t recall ever meeting her.
She recalled that she had to see the doctor again that afternoon.
recall, remember & remind
这三个词都与“记忆”有关,前两个词有时可通用。
recall“想起”,把忘记的东西又想起来了,其动作包含有意识的努力,因此常与can,could 等词连用,强调一次的回忆。
remember “想起”,用处比较广泛,指事物自然在记忆中出现,不包含努力或意志。 如果 remember 表示有意识的行动,常指“记住”。
remind 指“使某人想起”,“提醒”,宾语是人。具体用法如下:
1) 接宾语;
2) 接宾语+of+宾语;
3) 接宾语+不定式;
4) 接宾语+that-clause。
I suddenly ___ I had left the book in the library.

7.command:
1. n. order

2. v. give an order (to)

[谚语]指挥有方,人人乐从。
He is not fit to command others that cannot command himself.
[谚语]不能指挥自己就不能指挥别人。
像 suggest, demand 等动词一样,跟在 command后面的 that 从句中要用虚拟语气,谓语用“should+原形动词”或直接加原形动词,而不管从句中的人称或时态。
例如:He commanded that all the gates (should) be shut.
command & order
command 暗含“必须服从”的意思,比较正式。例如:The officer commanded his soldiers to open fire on the enemy.
军官命令士兵开枪射击敌人。
order 指一般的上级“命令”下级,较普通、常用。例如:
He was ordered to write a full report on the matter.
他奉命写一篇关于那件事的详细报告。
8.what’s more: in addition; more importantly

9.avoid: vt. keep or get away from (usu. followed by noun / gerund)

英语中有些动词或词组后面只能跟名词或动名词,不能跟不定式,如:avoid,deny,enjoy,escape,finish,mind,miss,postpone,suggest,feel like,give up,put off 等
avoid & escape
两词均有“避”的意思。
avoid 指“(有意识地)躲避”不愉快的或可能发生的危险或情况,而不是“逃避”实际的威胁。
escape 作及物动词时,表示“逃脱”,常用于抽象、借喻的情况中。
How did he imagine that things like that could ____ detection?
