《纸牌屋》只用了5800个单词，为啥过了英语6级还是听不懂

首先，用Python对《纸牌屋》第一季的英文字幕进行词频分析：

(代码不知道怎么放进去)

《纸牌屋》第一季居然只有大概5800个单词，而且还包含了：①系动词，助词，连词，②动词的时态变化，③名词的单复数变化，④人名，地名

合并①~④后估计只有3000核心词汇，掌握3000词，就能把英语说得和《纸牌屋》里的人一样流利？据说Trump说话、演讲的常用词只有500多个。

关键是英语中有很多简单词，一词多义，简直是万能般的存在，比如make和take，下次说英语卡壳时直接用这两个词替代，不知道外国人会不会懵？

《纸牌屋》第一季中出现频率超过50的高频词：make，take, come, look, way, over, down, bill ，talk，put, keep, thing, thought,

都是很简单的词，但我们不一定会用。中文里也有这类词，比如“搞”：搞定，搞好，瞎搞，搞钱，怎么搞...

外国人学中文，估计也不会用“搞”这个词

高频词No1：make/made 本意是“做”，可以衍生很多和“做”相关的联想

高频词No.2：take/took/taken，本意是“带”，可以衍生很多和“带”相关的联想

以上的句子，有些make和take是可以替代的，感觉把握不大的情况下，还是不要随便用make，take这种万能词，用精准的动词替代make和take，否则搞出歧义就麻烦了
