记忆方法
有一天你心爱的人突然要离开了,他(她)会和你说,从此以后我们永不相见,彼此忘了,就当我[死]了或者disappear了吧。dis[s音同死]不。disappear消失不见。永远disappear。
所以appear就是不消失,出现的意思。再引申:appearance就是样貌、外貌的意思。
双解例句
小知识
Your appearance is how you look: your clothes, hair, facial expression, skin tone, and posture all factor into your overall appearance.
Ever had to go somewhere you didn't want to go? If you stopped by just briefly, you made an appearance. But this word more often has to do with how things look. Your appearance is created by everything people can see, from your hair down to your shoes. Sometimes appearances can be deceiving: maybe you give an appearance of confidence, but you're really nervous inside. The saying “don't judge a book by its cover” means “don't judge by appearances.”
