英语阅读：boycott什么意思？

英语阅读，并不意味着我们一定“要懂”它的汉语意思才叫阅读。英语阅读的目的是要我们通过阅读训练我们的“英语思维”能力，把学过的已知的英语用起来，让我们的英语在非英语语言环境下依然能够“学以致用”，“学”“用”结合。

所以，读到英语diplomatic boycott时，千万不要“条件反射”地问：中文什么意思？

这样的英语阅读在非英语语言环境下“读”得再多也是不会转化成英语“学习力”和英语可持续性发展能力的。

一、你读：中文什么意思？

Australia's "diplomatic boycott" of the Beijing Winter Olympics runs counter to its publicly pronounced expectation to improve China-Australia relations, the Chinese Embassy in Australia said Wednesday. The embassy also urged the country to take practical measures to create favorable conditions for improving bilateral relations. The comments came hours after the Australian government announced it was not sending officials to the Beijing Winter Games, which will be held in February 2022.

二、我读：Okay. I got you.

1. Okay. I got you.If you say Australia's "diplomatic boycott" of the Beijing Winter Olympics,you mean the Australian government will not be sending its officials to the Beijing Winter Games.

这就是diplomatic boycott的意思。我们需要记住的是这句英语，而不是boycott“中文是什么？”

2. Okay. I got you. If you boycott sonething or someone, you will not do,or refuse to do something
