(CNN 기출) 고급 어휘 모음 & 예문

소개

제가 2년 반동안 CNN방송으로 영어공부를 하면서 만든 어휘모음입니다.

CNN을 시청하다가 모르는 단어가 나올때마다 인터넷이나 사전을 찾아 만들었습니다.

어휘 고유의 뜻과 CNN 특유의 생생한 예문들로 채워져있습니다.

고급 어휘를 익히시는데 이 자료만큼 효과적인 자료가 있을까 싶습니다.

2년동안 혼자 cnn방송으로 공부를 하면서 너무 공을 들인 자료라 가격을 좀 높게 잡았지만

토익 950,ibt105점 이상을 노리시는 고득점 목표 수험생들과 보다 세련된 영어표현을 구사하고 싶은 신분들게 유용한 자료가 될겁니다..
