例题1：In the latter case the outcome can be serious indeed. （2003年职称英语卫生类C级）

五、根义记忆法

　　利用根义代替记忆多义，可以解决“没有生词”却老读不懂的问题。

　　比如要问immediate（ly)是否已记住，回答当然是肯定的。那么就请看下面三个“没有生词”的片段：
a）The woman walks immediately behind the car.
b）She is my immediate neighbor.
c）the immediate cause
　　若没有读懂，那么就请看immediate（ly）根义：中间没有间隔（地）
1）（时间）立刻;
2）（空间）紧挨，通接，紧跟，
3）（关系）直接

例题1：He will leave immediately. （2005职称英语用书）
A. far away
B. right away
C. right here
D. soon
答案：B
例题2：Can you follow the plot？（2003年职称英语卫生类C级）
A. change
B. investigate
C. understand
D. write
答案：C

　　请看下面几句中的“follow”分别都是什么意思？
She went into the building, followed by a group of students.
The teacher says that everybody should follow the rule here.
I'm sorry, but I can't follow you.

六、容易混淆词的特别记忆

　　（1）有些字可当形容词又可当副词，例如：early；past；half；long；straight；fast；hard；quick；deep；slow； pretty；awful；wrong；right；high；late；hourly；early；weekly；etc.
We had an early breakfast.（形容词）
We went by a fast train.（形容词）
We had breakfast early.（副词）
Don't speak so fast.（副词）

　　（2）有些形容词变为副词，可在字尾加ly，也可以不加，不过在字义上不同。
（A）easy “安适地”；easily “容易地”：
