この場合をかける - This situation burdens me
At the moment I'm about a third of the way through learning the "Core 6k" Japanese words using Anki.
I've run into a lot of words for "situation" 情勢, 状況, 事態, 場合, 場面. If anyone has good examples of the distinction between these I'd love to see.
I also ran in to 書ける which has 24 different meanings according to Jisho.org - I find it impossible to know which one someone means. I'm aware there are probably English words which feel the same to English learners.
Has anyone found a good way to deal with learning synonyms/homonyms/homophones? I'm just listing all the things it isn't on the front of my flashcard :)

ケンブリッジに晴れの週 - A sunny week in Cambridge (日本語/English)
先週、晴れでいる間に会社の友達とパブに行ったりパントをしました。私は映画を見るに行きました。スタートレックは好評を得るでも、良くないでした。片々がいいでも、ほか片々ちょっと。。。最近に私は映画にもっと批判的を成りました。来週、多分姉を訪ねます。最近に彼女の赤ちゃんは動くの始めました。かわいいです！
Last week, when it was sunny, I did things like going to the pub and going punting with my work friends . I also went to see a film. Star Trek has a good reputation, but it wasn't good. Parts were good, but other parts we a bit... Recently I've become more critical of films. Next week, my older sister will probably visit. Recently her recently started moving. Cute!

Is jisho right about 真夏日 and 真冬日?
If I read 真夏日 - I'd guess it meant mid-summer day.
If I read 真冬日 I'd guess it meant mid-winter day.
But http://jisho.org/search/degrees%20centigrade defines them in terms of temperature.
i.e. 真夏日 = day on which the temperature exceeds 30 degrees Centigrade
Is this really how a Japanese person thinks about those words?

する vs している
My online course gives me an English word and asks me for the Japanese one:
"satisfied" = まんぞくしている
"disappointing" = がっかりする
I would translate:
まんぞくしている = "am satisfied"
がっかりする = "was disappointing"
Am I right? And how would you translated "is satisfying"?
