一、縮略詞

       英語當中縮略詞使用的頻率很高，如IMP: important, ASAP: as soon as possible。很顯然，如果能熟練掌握縮略詞，會對考試大有裨益。

       縮略詞的寫法一般為四種方式：

       1. 拿掉所有元音

       MKT: market

       MGR: manager

       MSG: message

       STD: standard

       RCV: receive

       2. 保留前幾個字母

       INFO information

       INS insurance

       EXCH exchange

       IOU I owe you

       I/O In stead of

       3. 保留開頭和結尾的發(fā)音字母

       WK week

       RM room

       PL people

       4. 根據發(fā)音

       R are

       THO though

       THRU through
