華人熟悉的air-conditioned（裝有空調設備的），若改成conditional，就變成「附有條件的」。
民粹政治人物重視的approval rating（民調支持率），若和conditional（附有條件的）搭配，就組成新片語conditional approval（有條件的批准）。
「一字多義」及「搭配詞」是華人在準備TOEIC、TOEFL、IELTS考試時的痛點。
除了勤查字典做學習筆記統整自己的英文盲點外，每日花20-30分鐘閱讀耳熟能詳的國際新聞，亦是擴大自己「一字多義」及「搭配詞庫」有效方法。
閱讀以下擷取於CNN有關美國禽流感conditional approval（有條件的批准）疫苗英文新聞，可以幫助TOEIC（多益）考生學習conditional、approval、vaccine、issue、outbreak、ravage、poultry、flock、contribute、manufacturer、release、existing 12個詞彙。
