GRE备考中，词汇是考试成败的基础，而其中有一些重点词组是大家必须掌握的，词组的记忆起来也比单个单词的记忆更加容易，今天小编就为大家整理汇总了一些重点词组，希望对大家有所帮助。

释义
Something that impinges on you affects you to some extent.
例句
Events in one country inevitably impinge on others, particularly because of the advances in communications technology.
GRE

spring from 源自
释义
If something springs from another thing, it is the result of it.
例句

GRE
Although remorse is usually thought to spring from regret for having done something wrong, it may be that its origin is the realization that one's own nature is irremediably flawed.

TIPS：GRE词汇零距离：“难以言说”英文释义
根据我们的中文释义，难以言说就是难以用语言来表达的意思，但你知道“难以用语言表达”用英语怎么说吗?
例句：
1.人的一生总有一些难以言说的秘密，无法逆转的悔恨，无可企及的梦想以及难以忘怀的爱恋。
In life we all have an unspeakable secret, an irreversible regret, an unreachable dream and an unfortettablelove.
2.不可言说指无法用语言充分表达的某物。
Je ne sais quoi is something that cannot be adequately described or expressed.
Je ne sais quoi是法语“我不知道是什么”的意思，这个词表达的不可言说之物多为褒义。
