またまた、smart.fmです。
http://smart.fm/
4日目に入りました。
TED Talksの単語の学習していますが、
1レッスンが5または10の単語の学習となっています。
http://smart.fm/lists/87663
10個にした場合、4日目は7、8個は初日または2日目に
学習した単語が現れるようです。
その単語の中には忘れているものもあり、たった2日前に
覚えたものなのに、、、といった忘却ぶりです。
やはり単語は忘れては覚えての繰り返しなのだと思いました。
まだ何回か、繰り返しで復習するような感じです。
恐るべしiKnow!。

■NHKラジオ 実践ビジネス英語 Shady Investment Seminar (6) 5/29 2009
■意味を考えてみよう。今日取り上げる単語が含まれています。
Unfortunately, many older people are easy prey for that
kind of superficially attractive investment scheme.
Afterward, I did some research and found that there are
all sorts of shady investment seminars where older
people are taken advantage of.
I've looked into them too, and many involve real estate
scams in which unwitting victims are sold what they are
led to believe are attractive, fully serviced plots of
land in nice loations, but which turn out to be worthless
lots in inaccessible deserts or swampland.
Yes, it really is a case of caveat emptor, I'm afraid.
