为了记忆单词“pail”,可以采用“形象联想法”。将“pail”想象成一个“派”(pie),在“派”里填满“水”(water),这样“派”就变成了一个“桶”(pail),因为“派”(pie)和“桶”(pail)在形状上都有一个圆形的底,而“水”(water)则提示了容器里装的东西。这种方法通过将单词与一个具体的、容易记住的图像关联起来,帮助记忆。

- pail (n.)
- mid-14c., of uncertain origin, probably from Old French paele, paelle "cooking or frying pan, warming pan;" also a liquid measure, from Latin patella "small pan, little dish, platter," diminutive of patina "broad shallow pan, stewpan" (see pan (n.)).
Old English had pægel "wine vessel," but etymology does not support a connection. This Old English word possibly is from Medieval Latin pagella "a measure," from Latin pagella "column," diminutive of pagina (see page (n.1)).
