英文解释：make sure that you know all the most recent facts about a subject 确保你了解到了…最新的情况；与…并进或者说能跟得上…的发展

我们来看一道雅思口语常见考题：
-Do you often use the computer?
– I use the computer quite a lot. Actually, I have a MacBook, which is a laptop given by my father on my last birthday. I usually use it to browse some web pages. It’s really a good tool to help me keep abreast of what has happened recently. 我还是经常使用电脑的。我有一台父亲在我上个生日时候送给我的苹果笔记本电脑。我经常用这台电脑浏览一些网页。它是一个让我了解新鲜事物的一个很高的工具。
同样还有其它与KEEP搭配的表达 都可以一起记忆了：
keep it up： used to tell sb to continue doing sth as well as they are already doing it 言外之意就是坚持或者继续做下去不放松的意思
比如：They’ve done well so far. I just wonder how long they can keep it up. 到目前为止他们干得很不错，我只是想知道他们还能坚持多久。
比如雅思口语问到TIME MANAGEMENT：
-Are you good at time management?
-Well, I’m not an expert. I sometimes make a to-d0-list to make sure that I can finish every piece of task on time. But you know it’s pretty hard to keep it up.
对于时间管理来说，我不是一个专家。我有时候会搞一个清单出来，确保每项任务都能按时完成，但是我并不能坚持下去。
Keep sth to yourself: not tell other people about sth 对…保守秘密
比如：I don’t want John to know about this. So, keep it to yourself. 我不想让John知道这件事，你要保守秘密。
还有一个与yourself相关的表达 那就是 Keep yourself to yourself: avoid meeting people socially or becoming involved in their affairs. 不与他人交往的，不卷入他人的事
我们刚刚说的keep sth yourself是保密的意思，那对自己保密，也就是不同他人一起沟通交流的意思了。
比如：My neighbor keeps himself to himself. We smile and say ‘good morning’, but that’s all. 我的邻居不爱与人交往，我们只是相逢一笑，问声“早上好”而已。
下一个表达：I have butterflies in my stomach的意思
