| Text | The verb "to pass," in this podcast, means to say 'no' to something or to decide against doing something: "I told Mary that I'm going to have to pass on dinner this weekend because I have to go visit my mother." As a verb, "to pass" can also mean to go around something, usually a car or vehicle on the road: "I had to pass the truck on the one-lane highway because it was going so slowly." We can also use "to pass" to mean to be successful on a test or a challenge: "He was worried that he wasn't going to pass the final exam so he studied all weekend." Or, "He passed the driving test even though he made several small mistakes on the road." |
