11/2


1.       Pester- to annoy somebody especially to ask them questions many times
v  He kept pestering me with those stupid questions about Brad and what kind of relationship we were having.

2.       Battered
#old, used a lot, not in a good condition
v  Grandpa refused to sell that battered yellow car of his, saying it was bought with his first salary.

              #attacked or badly damage by weapons and weather
v  The buildings in the heart of the city were battered in the storm, and now what left there are derelicts.

3.       Kook- a person who act in a strange way
v  “He’s a kook. You better stay away from him,” she warned.

4.       Dismay
#a worried, sad feeling after you have received an unpleasant surprise
v  To her dismay, she didn’t make it to Julliard.

              #to make somebody feel shock and disappointed
v  Suho’s suggestion to redo the paperwork for their community service activity was followed by a dismay silence.

5.       Astonishment- amazement
v  Taylor Swift’s closing performance left the fans in astonishment.
