1. 采用：校本课程开发把课程开发的场所界定在学校,就意味着学校不只是采用(adopt)课程,而要调适(adapt)课程. 不仅课程方案制订是一个不断对话的修正过程,课程方案的实施也是在独特复杂情境中的教和学的过程,
2. 收养：收养表示贺家主动自愿地放弃作父母的权力,但贺家从未有任何意向让人收养(ADOPT)贺梅. 事实上,最初当贺家表示接受教堂帮助时,有一对想要孩子但没有的白人夫妇提出要收养贺梅,但被拒绝了. 对这一点,BAKER家是非常清楚的.
3. 接受：但此前协议的各方不是一定要接受(adopt)该议定书,所以有时候它标明为任择议定书(optional protocol),特别是原条约下的多方都不接受的情况下. 例如<>(Kyoto Protocol)是对<>(United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change/UNFCCC)的补充规定.
