gradʹua'tor n.（名词）- The verbgraduate has denoted the action of conferring an academic degree or diploma since at least 1421, as inShe was graduated from Yale in 1980. This earlier pattern of use is still defensible,if slightly old-fashioned,and is acceptable to 78 percent of the Usage Panel.In general usage,however, it has largely yielded to the much more recent active pattern (first attested in 1807): 动词graduate 最晚从1421年起便指授予学位或毕业证书的行为， 如1980年她毕业于耶鲁大学。 最早的使用方式仍然受到辩护，即使有些过时，仍为语言用法专题使用小组百分之七十八的成员所接受。在一般的用法中，该词毕竟已经变为现在更活跃的方式（已证明最早在1807年）： She graduated from Yale in 1980. 她1980年毕业于耶鲁大学。
- This pattern, which no longer bears any taint of incorrectness,is acceptable to 89 percent of the Panel.It has the advantage of ascribing the accomplishment to the student, rather than to the institution,as is usually appropriate in discussions of individual cases.When the institution's responsibility is emphasized,however, the older pattern may still be recommended.A sentence such asThe university graduated more computer science majors in 1987 than in the entire previous decade stresses the university's accomplishment, say, of its computer science program. On the other hand, the sentenceMore computer science majors graduated in 1987 than in the entire previous decade implies that the class of 1987 was in some way a remarkable group. · The transitive use ofgraduate, as inShe graduated Yale in 1980, was unacceptable to 77 percent of the Usage Panel. 这种方式不再有不正确的问题，并为小组百分之八十九的成员所接受，其优点是将成就归功于学生而不是学院，通常在讨论单个事例时是合适的。当学院的责任被强调时，旧方式则可能得到推崇。句子：The university graduated more computer science majors in 1987 than in the entire previous decade。 强调了该大学计算机科学项目上的成就。 另一方面，句子：More computer science majors graduated in 1987 than in the entire previous decade。 指1987级从某种意义上来说是个出色的群体。 至于graduate 的及物用法， 如在她于1980年毕业于耶鲁大学 用法使用专题小组百分之七十七的成员表示不接受
