perfect作为动词意为“to make (something good) perfect or better”，使……完美、提高，可以和 improve 同义替换。略有不同的是，perfect 更能体现一个人的决心和持久力，有精益求精、匠人之心的意思。从 perfect 的动词意思也可以看得出，它后面经常会接 skill, technique 等词。

注意：perfect 作形容词的读音是/ˈpəːfɪkt/；作动词时，它的读音和重音都会发生变化，读成/pəˈfɛkt/。

例句：

① 日本寿司之神小野次郎穷尽一生精进寿司手艺，用英语可以这么表达： Jiro Ono, arguably the best living Japanese sushi chef, has devoted his entire life to perfecting the art of sushi. （这句话中的 art 也有 skill 的意思，比如还有 the art of public speaking, the art of persuasion, the art of acting 等）

② 奥巴马是在大学时期不断提高自己的口才的，就可以说： It was in college that Barack Obama perfected the art of oratory/public speaking.

③ Sherry 老师一直在找机会精进自己的咖啡拉花（latte art）技术，我们就可以这么写： Sherry has taken every opportunity to perfect her latte art.

④ NBA 球星史蒂芬•库里以出色的运球技能闻名，可能没有谁比他在运球上更追求精益求精了： When it comes to perfecting the dribbling technique, perhaps no other basketball player has worked harder than Stephen Curry, a six-time NBA All-Star.

1）翻译下面的句子：

他是在德国读本科期间提高了自己的德语能力。

It was ring his undergraate years in Germany that he perfected his German.

He has perfected his German ring his undergraate years in Germany.

2）结合自己的生活、学习、工作、兴趣等，想象在什么语境下会用到这个表达。先简要描述这个场景，再造句。

例子： I need to perfect my spoken English before going to a foreign company for an interview.

场景：在去外企面试之前要不断练习提高我的口语能力。
