| 单词 | 加剧 |
| 释义 | 〔aggravate〕To make worse or more troublesome.加重；加剧；使恶化：使变得更坏或更麻烦〔heat〕"If inflation heats up, interest rates could increase"(Christian Science Monitor)“如果通货膨胀加剧则利率可能会提高”(基督教科学箴言报)〔exasperate〕"a scene . . . that exasperates his rose fever and makes him sneeze"(Samuel Beckett)“一个事件…加剧了他的玫瑰热并使他打喷嚏”(塞缪尔·贝克特)〔paroxysm〕A sudden attack, recurrence, or intensification of a disease.发作：突然的发作、复发或疾病的加剧〔Transvaal〕A region of northeast South Africa. Inhabited by Bantu-speaking Black Africans, the area was settled by Boer farmers who formed an independent state, called the South African Republic, in the 1850's. Great Britain annexed the territory in 1877, but the discovery of gold in 1886 led to an influx of settlers, further tensions between the British and the Boers, and the eventual formation of the Transvaal as a crown colony (1900) after the Boer War. Transvaal became a part of South Africa in 1910.德兰士瓦省：南非东北部一个地区。这一地区居住着讲班图语的非洲黑人，19世纪50年代布尔农民建立此区，布尔人还成立了一个独立国家，称作南非共和国。1877年英国吞并了这个地区，但是1886年在该地区发现黄金后，大批拓居者纷纷涌入，加剧了英国和布尔人之间的矛盾，并最终使德兰士瓦省在布尔战争后成为一个直辖殖民地(1900年）。1910年德兰士瓦省成为南非的一部分〔exacerbate〕To increase the severity, violence, or bitterness of; aggravate:使…加剧，使…剧烈，使…恶化；加重：〔exacerbate〕a speech that exacerbated racial tensions; a heavy rainfall that exacerbated the flood problems.一个加剧了种族间紧张的演讲；一场使水灾更为严重的暴雨〔aggravate〕It is sometimes claimed thataggravate should be used only to mean "to make worse" and not "to irritate.” Based on this view it would be appropriate to sayThe endless wait for luggage aggravates the misery of modern air travel, but not It's the endless wait for luggage that aggravates me the most. But the latter use dates back as far as the 17th century and is accepted by 68 percent of the Usage Panel. As H.W. Fowler wrote, "the extension from aggravating a person's temper to aggravating the person himself is slight and natural,and when we are told that Wackford Squeers [in Dickens'sNicholas Nickleby ] pinched the boys in aggravating places we may reasonably infer that his choice of places aggravated both the pinches and the boys.”有时认为aggravate 应当只被用来表示“加重；使恶化”的意思而不表示“使恼火；激怒”。 根据这种观点，The endless wait for luggage aggravates the misery of modern air travel（无休止地等待行李加重了现代飞机旅行的困难） 这个句子是正确的，而 It's the endless wait for luggage that aggravates me the most（无休止地等待行李最为令我恼火） 这一句则不正确。 但是后一种用法可以追溯到17世纪，并且被百分之六十八的用法使用小组成员所接受。正如H·W·福勒写道，“从使一个人的脾气变得更坏到使一个人恼火的延伸是微小和自然的，当我们看到威克福特·斯贵尔斯［出自狄更斯的小说尼古拉斯·尼克尔贝 ］往令人恼火的地方拧孩子们时， 我们可以合理地推断出他所选择的地方既加剧了拧的疼痛又令孩子们大为恼火。”〔aggravation〕The act of aggravating or the state of being aggravated.加重；加剧；恶化：加重恶化的行为或被加重、恶化的状态〔talkative〕"a natural reserve accentuated by the verbose frankness of her husband" (W. Somerset Maugham). “她天生的缄默少言因其丈夫长篇大论式的坦诚而被加剧了” (W·索马瑟特·毛姆）。〔Saarland〕A region of southwest Germany in the Saar River valley on the border with France. Because of its extensive coal deposits, it was long contested between Germany and France, especially after World War I, when the League of Nations assigned the administration of the newly formedSaar Territory to France. After a 1935 plebiscite Saarland became a German province, but it was again placed under French control in 1945. The notion of an autonomous Saarland was rejected by the populace in 1955, and the region officially became a state of West Germany in 1957. 萨尔州：德国西南部一地区，位于与法国交界处萨尔河谷内。因其广为分布的煤矿资源，德国和法国对它进行了长期争夺，尤其是第一次世界大战后国际联盟规定了新形成的萨尔边界 的行政管理归法国后争夺加剧。1935年公民投票后萨尔州成为德国一个省，但1945年又受控于法国。1955年广大民众拒绝了萨尔州自治的提法，1957年该州正式成为西德的一个州 〔grow〕To increase in amount or degree; intensify:增强：数量或程度上的增加；加剧：〔paroxysm〕oxunein [to goad, sharpen] from oxus [sharp] * see ak- oxunein [刺激，加剧] 源自 oxus [尖的] * 参见 ak- 〔inflame〕To make more violent; intensify:使…更加激烈；加剧：〔flare〕To erupt or intensify suddenly:突然爆发或加剧：〔insubordinate〕 Factious implies the promotion or existence of divisiveness, dissension, or disunity within a group or an organization: Factious 暗指一个团体或组织内部分裂、不和或不团结的存在或加剧： |
