Learn Two Words: Dig In and Rile
文章来源: 冲浪潜水员2014-09-29 07:02:17
If you follow the news, you should be aware of the concerning events taking place in Hong Kong. Politics aside, let's learn two words in the news coverage. Both are verbs: the first one is to "dig in", and the second one is to "rile". Do you know what they mean? Take a guess before you read into the articles, though. You'll be glad in case you guessed it right!

BTW, I did look these up in wiktionary.org myself. Although I had guessed correctly their meanings in these two headlines, I did learn something new. Care to find out?
