我也來說說GRE單字與TOEFL單字的關係吧
基本上兩者要求的單字方向的不太一樣的

GRE你要知道的是"單一個"字的字義
TOEFL中單字要能聽說讀寫
聽力的單字範圍 與 說的範圍 或者 閱讀的單字範圍又不一樣了

在GRE中 我建議是由背字彙書來準備
因為這些字是出現頻率較低的 (不然就是考 較偏的字義 很討厭)
但不是說沒有唷 報紙中也會出現的

在TOEFL中 我比較建議由閱讀中學習單字
因為實際要考難一點單字也只在閱讀中嗎 而且一篇只有四題不到
而且還可以從上下文去猜

就一個背完紅寶的我而言 是不是就無敵了呢
老實說 我還是需要不斷的查字典耶 還是有很多單字我沒看過的
不過 當有一定經驗累積後 吸收這些新單字的速度就快多了

不想寫太長 以後再慢慢談吧

extrapolate

extra(outside)-pol(akin to polish)-ate [其實是由 extra-(inter)polate組合而成]

v.推斷 [to infer (an unknown) from something that is known; conjecture.]

ex. We don't know the exact figure for forest damage, but we can
extrapolate from the sample surveys.
我們不知道森林破壞的精確數字，但是我們可以從抽樣的測量來推算。

v. 外推法(或稱外插法)



ps.

interpolate v.插入文字

字源：1612 (implied in interpolation) "to alter or enlarge (a writing) by
inserting new material," from L. interpolatus, pp. of interpolare "alter,
freshen up, falsify," from inter- "up" + polare, related to polire "to
smoothe, polish." Sense evolved in L. from "refurbish," to "alter appearance
of," to "falsify (especially by adding new material)."

interpolate的字義來源是插入一個新的材料才使變大或改變，這邊的pol是polish的意思
，是指磨光打亮之義。想表達的想法是加入個新材料就可以使它看似磨光打亮而變大變好
，後來就引申成插入文字囉。
