В IELTS Speaking среди критериев есть такой в Lexical resource:
uses a wide vocabulary resource readily and flexibly to convey precise meaning
Все обычно хорошо понимают первую часть — нужно использовать широкий диапазон слов. А вот вторая часть to convey precise meaning не всегда учитывается. Вот ее и разберем сегодня.
☝️ Ваша задача не просто разбросать по речи множество слов, но и точно использовать их в контексте, максимально корректно передать смысл того, что хотите сказать.
Например, используя базовый вокабуляр, вы можете сказать:
😐 The event was interesting.
Ничего плохого во фразе нет, но... how interesting? what do you mean by saying 'interesting'?
😮 Did you mean 'unusual' or 'unexpected'? Then it was quirky.
🤩 Did you use 'interesting' meaning it captured your attention? Then it was enthralling or captivating.
🤨 Or maybe the event was strange (in an unpleasant way)? Then you could use the words odd or peculiar or bizarre.
🥳 Was the event of a far-reaching importance? Then it was momentous. Сравните: an interesting event in history vs. a momentous event in history.
Все эти слова более точно передают смысл базового слова 'interesting' (и добавляют вам баллы за flexible LR).
🔥 Мне кажется, хорошая тема для постоянной рубрики — будем брать базовое слово и рассматривать его в разных контекстах, что скажете, сделать рубрику? #ielts_vocabulary

Most people buy Bitcoin via exchanges, such as Coinbase. Exchanges allow you to buy, sell and hold cryptocurrency, and setting up an account is similar to opening a brokerage account—you’ll need to verify your identity and provide some kind of funding source, such as a bank account or debit card. Major exchanges include Coinbase, Kraken, and Gemini. You can also buy Bitcoin at a broker like Robinhood. Regardless of where you buy your Bitcoin, you’ll need a digital wallet in which to store it. This might be what’s called a hot wallet or a cold wallet. A hot wallet (also called an online wallet) is stored by an exchange or a provider in the cloud. Providers of online wallets include Exodus, Electrum and Mycelium. A cold wallet (or mobile wallet) is an offline device used to store Bitcoin and is not connected to the Internet. Some mobile wallet options include Trezor and Ledger.
Telegram Be The Next Best SPAC
I have no inside knowledge of a potential stock listing of the popular anti-Whatsapp messaging app, Telegram. But I know this much, judging by most people I talk to, especially crypto investors, if Telegram ever went public, people would gobble it up. I know I would. I’m waiting for it. So is Sergei Sergienko, who claims he owns $800,000 of Telegram’s pre-initial coin offering (ICO) tokens. “If Telegram does a SPAC IPO, there would be demand for this issue. It would probably outstrip the interest we saw during the ICO. Why? Because as of right now Telegram looks like a liberal application that can accept anyone - right after WhatsApp and others have turn on the censorship,” he says.
