今天我们要学的词是 eradicate.
Eradicate 的意思是消除、根除。 President Trump has promised to cure cancer, eradicate AIDS, and ensure that American astronauts land on Mars if he wins a second term. 美国总统特朗普承诺,如果他竞选连任,他将治愈癌症,消灭艾滋病,并确保美国宇航员登陆火星。
New York is embracing a new, environmentally-friendly, though not quite revolutionary, way to eradicate weeds in the city’s Riverside Park – two dozen goats. 纽约正在采用一种新的、环保的,但算不上是革命性的方式来清除市内河滨公园里的杂草——二十几只山羊。
