Spelling List for (20th August)

Here is the list for next week's spelling.
Do make an effort to do better. I realised that there is a decline in some of your working and learning attitude. Since I can't be around too often to check on all of you, do be a good pal and remind one another or give each other a nudge when you see your friend trailing behind. (",)

Spelling List:

From Bringing go-kart racing to the heartland article:-

1) Decked out - dressed very well
2) Tie in - one thing that is related to or connected with another. (eg. a Movie tie-in book => books that were made from or made into movies)
3) Awareness - having knowledge of something or being mindful of something

From Suicide figures up - 419 deaths last year article:-

4) Rosy - promising or bright (Note: only when referring to future or prospect)
5) Sobering - serious
6) Upswing - a big increase
7) Outpace - to exceed in speed (Note: in this case, it meant that the increase in suicide is much faster than the increase in human population)
8) Brink - edge
9) Preoccupied - to be absorbed or engrossed in something and ignore other things
10) Captive - made prisoner or be restraint

So, study hard now!
I'll see you around soon!
