名言 Quotations

The class distinctions proper to a democratic society are not those of rank or money, still less, as is apt to happen when these are abandoned, of race, but of age.

通过“谚语和名言”的掌握，我们不仅可以更进一步掌握语汇在一句话中的用法，而且还可以丰富我们自己的语料库，武装自己的思想，更重要的是，可以通过谚语和名言了解体会英语的一种文化。因为英国作家培根说过：“一个民族的天才、智慧和精神都可以在其谚语名言中找到。”
本书共分为四大部分（即核心名词篇，核心动词篇，核心转换词篇，核心形容词篇）共有12个单元，每一单元所列出的语汇以字母顺序排列，均按照上述模块编排而成。此外在每一个单元结尾都配音“4＋1”语汇练习和“4＋1”流行语汇，以帮助读者巩固所学语汇和扩充知识面。
因为本书所收录的语汇都是听说中极为重要但被大多数学习者所忽视的核心语汇，因此希望您能从第一页到最后—页认真地学完这本书，并且尽可能的运用到自己的语言交流中去，毕竟英语语汇在不断的应用中才能真正体会到其中的精髓，才能真正变成你交流中的一个部分。并且希望读者在以后掌握新的语汇的时候，能够运用上本书提供的学习语汇的方法，这样才能达到本书“抛砖引玉”、‘授之以渔”的目的。
