三十六、offer
1、提供。公司提供工作職位給學生就是offer a job。國外大學提供獎學金即：offer scholarship。所以大家一般稱國外大學的全額獎學金為offer。
I turned down the offer because it would mean frequent business trips away from my family. 我拒絕了這份工作因為它要求頻繁的出差。
They’re offering me a job after I graduate. 他們給我提供了一份畢業(yè)后的工作。
2、幫助。offer to help others 樂于助人
三十七、order
1、命令。這是最基本用法，不贅述。
2、訂購。
I haven’t received the furniture I ordered yet.我還沒有收到訂購
How about the food I ordered?我訂的飯菜如何?
餐廳服務(wù)用語：Can I take / serve your order?
3、秩序。 out of order 比較亂，其反意為in order。
三十八、paint
1、油漆。
Did Henry paint the whole house himself? 整棟房都是亨利自己漆的嗎?
He had it painted. 他找人刷了油漆。
2、繪畫。
Can you tell me the title of this oil painting? 你能告訴我這貼畫油畫的名字嗎?
三十九、paper
1、論文。學期結(jié)束，學生難免會要被要求完成幾篇papers。
How much time did you have for writing the paper?你寫論文花了多少時間?
What’s the teacher’s comment on the student’s paper?老師怎么評價這個學生的論文?
Are you sure you have corrected all the typing errors in this paper? 你確信論文中所有打印錯誤都更改了嗎?
2、試卷。期中考試有mid-term paper，期末有term paper。因此，如果提到The paper was not as easy as we hope. 就是考試卷子沒有想象得那么容易之意了。
3、書面。與paper test 書面考試(筆試)相對的就是oral test(口試)。固定搭配on paper也即表示“以書面形式”。
4、平裝。a paper back book / paperback edition平裝書，與hard back book / hard cover精裝書相對。聽力中會出現(xiàn)的情形是，在促銷(on sale)期間，平裝書和精裝書一樣的價格，這個時候大家當然會更愿意選擇精裝書了。
Do you have the paperback edition of this dictionary? 這本字典有平裝版嗎?
5、新聞報紙。來源于newspaper。在日常用語中，直接用paper指代新聞報紙。
I’m calling about the three-bedroom house you advertised in yesterday’s paper.
The paper says people tend to feel unwell if they sleep less than six hours a day.
I’d like to place an advertisement for a used car in this Sunday edition of your paper.
6、一般的紙張。該詞最基本的意思。
I am looking for quality paper to type my essay. 我在找高質(zhì)量的紙來打印論文。
四十、polish
修改，潤色。對論文，對求職簡歷。
I spend so much time polishing my application letter. 我花了很多時間潤色我的申請文書。
