世界上60%以上的信件是用英語書寫的，上兩個世紀英國和美國在文化、經濟、軍事、政治和科學上的領先地位使得英語成為一種準國際語言。育路小編準備了高二英語知識點，具體請看以下內容。
重點詞匯
1. achieve
【課文原句】She has achieved everything she wanted to do… (P3)
【名師點撥】achieve v. 意為“完成;達到”，指經過長期努力而達到某目標、地位或標準等。其名詞形式為achievement，意為“成就;功績”，a sense of achievement可指“成就感”。如：
He had finally achieved success.
Even a small success gives you a sense of achievement.
2. condition
【課文原句】She helped improve prison conditions and gave prisoners work and education. (P1)
【名師點撥】condition 意為“環境;境況;條件”時，是可數名詞，常用復數形式conditions;意為“狀態;狀況”時，是不可數名詞，be in good condition表示“處于良好的狀態”，be out of condition表示“健康狀況不佳”。如：
We should pay more attention to the poor living under the bad conditions.
The astronauts soon got used to the condition of weightlessness.
My car is old but in good condition.

【知識拓展】condition意為“條件”時，常用短語on condition that，表示“如果;在……條件下”;在美國英語中，也經常用under the condition that。如：
I will come on condition that Peter is invited.
They agreed under the condition that the matter be dealt with quickly.
3. devote
【課文原句】She devoted all her life to medical work for Chinese women and children. (P1)
【名師點撥】devote vt. 意為“投入于;獻身”，其賓語后常與介詞to搭配，to后接名詞、代詞或動名詞。devote … to … 意為“獻身;致力于”，指把自己、時間、精力等奉獻給某種工作或事業。如：

5. worthwhile
【課文原句】But the evening makes it all worthwhile. (P2)
【名師點撥】worthwhile adj.意為“值得做的;值得出力的”，可作表語或定語。be worthwhile to do / doing sth表示“值得做……”，在動詞-ing形式的結構中，worthwhile有時可以用來替代worth，特別是在表示“值得花時間”這一概念時。如：

The book referred to by the professor is worthwhile / worth reading.
6. observe

7. argue
