②forget about 意思是“忘记、忘掉”，强调不把某事或某人放在心上，多用于口语。Forget about it! She didn’t mean to hurt you. 把那事忘掉吧！她不是有意伤害你。(即使不一定忘掉，也别放在心上)

3. Once students are clear about the vocabulary, ask them to complete Part D on page 43. More able students can complete the exercise on their own. Less able students can work in pairs or small groups.

2. Explain that for each word in the column on the left, there is a related word in the column on the right. The words may be opposites, synonyms or related words. Point to the first word and ask the class to find the matching word in the right-hand column. Ask volunteers to come to the front of the class and draw a line between two words to link them. Weaker classes might find this task difficult. Go through the words in the two columns with students before asking them to match the words.
