③ “remote chance” 是固定搭配,表 “微小的可能性”,初中写作中用这个短语能让表达更地道。

Sample Sentences:

关键使用提醒

1.区分 “routine(名词)” 和 “habit”

“routine” 是 “有规律的日常安排”(可主动调整),“habit” 是 “长期养成的习惯”(可能无意识),如 “早上读英语是 routine,咬指甲是 habit”。

2.形容词 “routine” 和 “regular” 的区别

“routine” 侧重 “按惯例进行的”(如例行检查),“regular” 侧重 “固定周期的”(如定期上课),初中阶段可互换,但 “routine” 更强调 “惯例性”,“regular” 更强调 “规律性”。

3.初中写作高频场景

描述日常作息、学习计划、校园生活时,用 “daily routine”“routine task” 等表达,简单又精准,比如 “我的日常惯例帮助我高效学习”→ “My daily routine helps me study efficiently.”
