外教課記錄20200722

昨天跟有有上課，又學(xué)到一個(gè)新詞pandemic

老師問(wèn)：Do you  go to beach and play in the water?

有有：I can't go to beach because of the epidemic.

老師給糾正了一下，“Yes. We can't go to beach because there is the pandemic."

我今天又特意查了下pandemic和epidemic的區(qū)別，兩者流行范圍不同，如果是全球性的，就用pandemic，如果是傳播范圍大但還沒(méi)到全球性的，就用epidemic，顯然老師的用詞更準(zhǔn)確[偷笑]
