Key Words for Fluency

「HOUSE」
「Verb + HOUSE」
▶ build a house 搭建房屋
They built their own dream house overlooking the river.
▶ share a house 住在一起或者合租
She shares a house with three other nurses.
▶ demolish a house 拆毁，拆除房屋
从英文释义可以看出demolish强调彻底的拆毁、破坏
可以是人为的，也可以是由于事故或者灾害而发生的
那么引申一下，我们在中文中常说的“拆”也可以用这个词
拆除房屋还可以说 knock down/tear down a house
这两个词的动作感和画面感更强一些
▶ renovate a house 翻修房屋
也可以说 refurbish a house
还有一个搭配叫做：decorate a house 装饰房屋
但是我个人觉得这个更倾向于装饰和美化
和翻修还是有一定的区别
根据英文释义，我的理解是：
renovate主要搞硬装？
decorate主要是软装？
refurbish可能是两者都有
▶ break into a house 闯入住宅
强调未经过允许闯入别人家
想象一下小偷或者强盗hhh
▶ move house 搬家
It's stressful moving house.
❗ 注意在这个搭配中，house前不用加任何冠词
这也是我看这本书的时候才意识到的
还可以说 move into/move out of a house
这里就是搬进或搬出某个房子
◉ 其 他 补 充
let out a house 出租房子
「Common expressions」
▶ live in a house 住在某个房子
❗ 注意在房子里面介词一般要用in
▶ stay at someone's house 待在某人家
❗ 注意在这里介词是 at
We stayed/met at Alison's house.
▶ pass someone's house 路过某人家
▶ lock yourself out of the house 把XX锁在外面

◉ 其 他 补 充
▶ dream house 梦中情房

▶ a single-storey house 单层的房子
