词源记忆法
词源记忆法:英语中有句颜语Time and tide wait for no man(岁月不待人。)语中的tide与time意思几乎相同,都指“时间”。其实这是tide的原始词义,在古英语就已见诸使用,如今已经废弃不用,但仍残留于一些复合词,如eventide(黄昏),noontide(正午),Yuletide(=Yuletime,圣诞节),Christmastide(=Christmastime,圣诞节期),Eastertide(复活节周),Whitsuntide(=Whitsun,圣灵降临周)等,这些词或属诗歌语言,或为罕用书面语。tide的今义“潮水”始用于14世纪,是从“时间”一义引申的,这是因为潮涨潮落有定时的缘故。嗣后,tide又进而喻指“潮流”或“趋向”。

小知识
The tide is the daily rise and fall of the sea level. You can count on the regular changing patterns of the tide, unless of course a tsunami is headed your way.
In a figurative sense, tide can mean a rising swell of support or unified feeling about a certain opinion or topic. So you may surf at high tide but also enjoy the rising tide of enthusiasm about surfing. If there is a wave of anything — immigration, inflation, terror — it can be referred to as a tide. No surfboards can navigate those tricky waves.
