53.recall与remind
recall和remind 容易混淆,也是经常出现的考点,它们的区别如下:

例如: I can't recall his name. 我想不起他的名字?

② remind,inform (sb) of a fact,or tell(sb) to do sth he may have forgotten,提醒……要做
例如: Do I have to remind you yet again?还要我再一次提醒你吗?

54.due to, owing to与thanks to
目前普遍认为due to与owing to为同义词,但用法不同。
due to可用在be之后,如:His lateness was due to the very heavy traffic on the motorway.她迟到是因高速公路上车辆过多所致。
due to也可用作状语,而owing to只用作状语,如:He was late owing to /due to the very heavy traffic.因交通拥挤,他迟到了。
due to可直接用在名词后:Accidents due to driving at high speed were very commonthat weekend.在那个周末因高速驾驶造成的交通事故很多。
thanks to相当于“on account of; because of因为,多用于褒义。
55.habit,practice与custom
这组名词一般含义为“习惯
habit指个人的“习惯,通常用于表示做事、思考问题或行为举止的不自觉的方式方法,如:I soon got back to my old bad habit of dozing off in front of the screen.不久就回到在电视屏幕前打瞌睡的坏习惯去了。
