    读音口诀法
    看一组词,
    oil 油
    toil/moil 辛苦(两个词含义一样)
    foil 锡纸、挫败
    boil 沸腾,blood boil 热血沸腾
    记忆方法:toil音似“淘油”,当然很辛苦了!foil即: f(非常)+oil,非常油,就要用锡纸擦,擦来擦去真 麻烦,干点活都能弄的满桌子是油,伤心了,挫败了。
    所以记住口诀: toil and moil,(辛辛苦苦)
    没想到foil(挫败了)
    都怪爸爸spoil(溺爱),
    气得我blood boil(热血沸腾)

    小知识

    You can serve as a foil to someone if you show them to be better than you by contrast. If you can't dance but your friend Lisa can, you can be a foil to Lisa's grace.

    If you're having trouble remembering this definition, think about a shiny piece of tin foil. It reflects an image back to you, so if you're a foil to someone, their image is reflected off of you in a positive light. Your brother's mediocre grades might serve as a foil to your intelligence. As a verb, if you foil someone's plans or attempts to do something, you cause them to fail. Your brother will be really mad if you foil his plans to hide his mediocre report card from your parents.
