重要字詞講解:
1. fasten (v.) 繫緊

 例:Thank you for your cooperation.
   (謝謝您的合作。)

 例:I'll need your cooperation to work the case out.
   (我需要你的合作,把這個案子做起來。)

※ 小叮嚀:
cooperation 的動詞是 cooperate,「和某人合作」可以說成 "cooperate with someone"。

3. punch (n.) 調酒;潘趣酒

   (我們有牛奶、果汁、啤酒、調酒還有葡萄酒。)

 例:I made some cranberry-vodka punch for the Thanksgiving party.

punch 是一種由酒加上果汁和其他材料調成的飲料。「潘趣」是取其讀音。
