| 释义 | 〔difference〕Divergence suggests an often gradually increasing difference between things originally similar: Divergence 是指原本相似的事物间逐渐增加的差异 〔gap〕A conspicuous difference or imbalance; a disparity:差距，悬殊：明显的不同或不平衡；差异：〔enormity〕the world really become aware of the enormity of Pol Pot's oppression. Fifty-nine percent of the Usage Panel rejects the use ofenormity in the more general sense in the sentenceAt that point the engineers sat down to design an entirely new viaduct, apparently undaunted by the enormity of their task. This distinction betweenenormity and enormousness has not always existed historically, but nowadays many observe it.Writers who ignore it in phrases such asthe enormity of the President's election victory or the enormity of her inheritance may find their words an unintended source of amusement.整个世界也才注意到波尔布特高压政策的穷凶极恶。 用法使用小组的59％成员都反对在如下句子里将enormity 该词用于更广泛的意义， 如在句子当坐下来开始设计一座全新的高架桥时，很明显地工程师们对他们所面临的艰巨工作无所畏惧 中。 这种enomity 和 enormousness 间的差异并不总是在历史上存在， 但现在很多人都观察到了这一点。那些在例如总统竞选的巨大胜利 或 她的巨额遗产 这些短语中忽略了该差异的作者们， 很可能会发现他们的词语无意中变成逗乐趣事的来源〔whatnot〕"family differences, differing social origins, and whatnot"(George F. Kennan)“家庭差异，分化的社会根源，以及诸如此类的东西”(乔治F.凯南)〔inequality〕Social or economic disparity:差异：社会或经济上的不平等：〔intolerant〕Unwilling to tolerate differences in opinions or beliefs, especially religious beliefs.不容异说的：不愿容忍意见或信仰，特别是宗教信仰方面存在差异的〔chasm〕A pronounced difference of opinion, interests, or loyalty.分歧：意见、利益或忠诚上的明显差异〔contrast〕A difference, especially a strong dissimilarity, between entities or objects compared:差别悬殊：被比较的实体或物体之间的差异，尤指悬殊差别：〔deviate〕To cause to turn aside or differ.使偏离：引起偏离或差异〔contrasty〕Having or producing sharp contrasts between light and dark areas in photography.强反差的：在摄影中具有强烈明暗反差或产生强烈明暗差异的〔irreconcilable〕irreconcilable differences.无法调和的差异〔intuit〕This lack of acceptance is often attributed to the verb's status as a back-formation fromintuition, but in fact the verb has existed as long as other back-formations, such asdiagnose and donate, that are now wholly acceptable. The source of the objections most likely lies in the fact that the verb is often used in reference to more trivial sorts of insight than would be permitted by a full appreciation of the traditional meaning ofintuition. In this connection, a somewhat greater percentage of the Panel, 46 percent,does acceptintuit in the sentence Mathematicians sometimes intuit the truth of a theorem long before they are able to prove it. See Usage Note at enthuse 这种观点上的差异通常归咎于这个动词作为源于intuition 的逆构词的地位， 但是事实上这个动词的存在时间与其他现已普遍接受的诸如diagnose 以及 donate 等逆构词的存在时间一样长。 反对的原因很可能在于这个动词常用以指“较差的洞察力”，而此意义是被intuition 传统意义的充分理解所禁止的。 在这方面，小组百分之四十六之多的人，确实接受intuit 用于句中 数学家们能在某些定理被证明以前凭直觉知道定理的正确性 参见 enthuse〔exchange〕The amount of difference in the actual value of two or more currencies or between values of the same currency at two or more places.兑换率的差异：两种或多种币值之差价或同一种币值在两地或多地的价值差额〔diversity〕The fact or quality of being diverse; difference.差异：事实或质量的不同；差别〔lime〕Any of various mineral and industrial forms of calcium oxide differing chiefly in water content and percentage of constituents such as silica, alumina, and iron. Also called quicklime 石灰：氧化钙的矿物形式或工业形式，在水含量和成分构成上与硅、矾土和铁有较大差异 也作 quicklime〔inappreciable〕Too small to be noticed or make a significant difference; negligible:微不足道的, 毫无价值的：太小因而难以觉察或造不成显著差异的；可忽略的：〔racism〕The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others.种族主义：认为人的性格或能力的差异是由种族造成的和有某一种族高于其它种族的观念〔differentia〕Latin [difference] 拉丁语 [差异] 〔difference〕A degree or amount by which things differ.差异的程度：不同的程度或数量〔difference〕a discrepancy between what was promised and what was done. 所说的和所做的之间的差异 〔nuance〕A subtle or slight degree of difference, as in meaning, feeling, or tone; a gradation.细微差别：意义、感情或音调等的细微差别；程度上的差异〔difference〕Variation is difference between things of the same class or species;often it refers to modification of something original, prescribed, or typical: Vairation 指相同等级或种类的差异，通常指原始的、指定的或典型的事物的变更： 〔discern〕To perceive or recognize as being different or distinct; distinguish.See Synonyms at see 1识别，辨别：觉察到或区别出不同或差异；辨别 参见 see1〔infer〕Infer is sometimes confused withimply, but the distinction is a useful one.When we say that a speaker or sentence implies something,we mean that it is conveyed or suggested without being stated outright: Infer 有时会和imply 混淆在一起， 但它们之间的差异是很重要的。当我们说某个说话人或某个句子暗含有某种东西时，我们的意思是这种东西是含在其中的或暗示的而没有公开说出来： 〔what〕Whenwhat is the subject of a clause, it may be construed as singular or plural, depending on the sense.It is singular when taken as the equivalent ofthat which or the thing which, as inI see what seems to be a dead tree; and it is plural when it is taken as the equivalent ofthose which or the things which, as inHe sometimes makes what seem to be gestures of aloofness. ? When awhat clause is itself the subject of a sentence, it may be construed as singular or plural,but the conditions governing this choice are somewhat more complicated.In general, awhat clause will be taken as a plural when the clause contains an explicit indication of its own plurality. There are two principal cases.First, the clause is plural ifwhat is the subject of the clause and the verb of the clause is itself plural: What seem to be two dead trees are blocking the road. What most surprise me are the inflammatory remarks at the end of his article. If the verb in thewhat clause does not anticipate the plural sense of the predicate in this way, a singular verb is generally used in the main clause as well,though the plural is sometimes found:What truly commands respect is (sometimes are ) a large navy and a resolute foreign policy. Second, thewhat clause is treated as plural when its predicate contains a plural noun phrase that unambiguously establishes the plurality of the clause as a whole, as inWhat traditional grammarians called "predicates" are called "verb phrases" by modern linguists. What the Romans established as military outposts were later to become important trading centers. In the absence of explicit plural marking of either of these types in a subjectwhat clause, the clause is usually treated as singular for the purposes of agreement, regardless of the sense:What she held in her lap was four kittens. What the apparent diamonds turned out to be was paste. In some cases, however, a clause withwhat as the subject may be treated as singular or plural, depending on a subtle distinction of sense. InWhat excite him most are money and power, the implication is that money and power are distinct elements; inWhat excites him most is money and power, the implication is that money and power are taken as constituting a single entity.See Usage Note at which 当what 作为从句中的主语时， 它既可被当作单数也可以为复数，这取决于词义。当被看作是that which 或 the thing which 时它就是单数， 如在I see what seems to be a dead tree（我看到个象棵死树的物体）” 这句话中； 当它被用作those which 或 the things which 的对应词时它是复数， 如在He sometimes makes what seem to be gestures of aloofness（他有时做一些似乎很超然的手势） 中。 当what 从句本身是句子的主语时， 它可被当作单数或复数，但决定这种选择的条件略为复杂些。总体上说，what 从句的含有对其数性明确指示时，它就可以将当作复数。 这有两种最主要的情况：首先，如果what 是从句的主语而该从句的谓语动词本身是复数，从句就是复数： What seem to be two dead trees are blocking the road.（象两棵死树的物体挡着路）； What mostsurprise me are the inflammatory remarks at the end of his article.（最令我吃惊的是他文章结尾处的煽动性言词） 。 如果what 从句的谓语动词并不预示谓语是复数， 主句中通常也用单数动词，尽管有时也可以发现有复数：What truly commands respect is（有时 are ) a large navy and a resolute foreign policy（真正博得尊敬的是强大的海军和坚定的外交政策） ； 其次what 从句在其谓语含有复数名词短语，并且其明显可建立整个从句的复数性时是被当作复数的， 如在What traditional grammarians called "predicates" are called "verb phrases" by modern linguists.（那些传统语法家所称为“谓语”的则被现代语言学家称作“动词短语”） What the Romans established as military outpostswere later to become important trading centers.（那些罗马人设为军事前哨基地的地方后来成为了重要的贸易中心）。 当what 从句主语缺乏这两类明确表示复数性的标记时， 从句通常为了一致性而不顾及词义地被当作单数：What she held in her lap was four kittens.（她抱在膝盖上的是四只小猫）。 What the apparent diamonds turned out to bewas paste.（那些看上去象真的钻石结果却是人造宝石） 。 然而，在一些情况下，以what 作主语的从句可被当单数或复数，取决于语义上微妙的差异。 在What excite him most are money and power（最让他兴奋的是金钱和权力）， 这句话中暗含着金钱和权力是不同的成分； 在What excites him most is money and power（最让他兴奋的是金钱和权力）， 这句话中暗含着金钱和权力是作为构成一个单一整体的成分 参见 which〔difference〕Dissimilarity is difference between things otherwise alike or capable of close comparison: Dissimilarity 是指在其它方面很相似或非常类似的事物间的差异： 〔discrepancy〕Divergence or disagreement, as between facts or claims; difference.矛盾，不相符：不符合或不一致，如在事实和宣称之间；差异〔divergency〕Divergence.叉开，背离，偏离，差异〔toward〕Some critics have tried to discern a semantic distinction betweentoward and towards, but the difference is entirely dialectal.Toward is more common in American English; towards is the predominant form in British English. 有些批评家试图明确分辨出toward 与 towards 之间的语义差别， 但这种差异完全是方言性的。Toward 在美式英语中更常见， 而在英国英语中towards 是主要形式 〔plaster〕plastered over our differences.掩盖我们之间的差异〔can〕since it requires the pupil to distinguish explicitly between what is possible and what is allowed,a difference not always apparent to younger children.And even in later life,observance of the distinction is often advisable in the interests of clarity.Thus, the sentenceStudents can take no more than three courses allows the possibility that a student who is unusually capable may take more, whereasStudents may take no more than three courses does not. · The use ofcan to express permission is better tolerated in negative questions, as inCan't I have the car tonight? probably because the alternative contractionmayn't is felt to be awkward. 由于这要求学生清楚地区分可能的和得到许可的两者之间的差异，而这对小孩子们常常是不太明显的。并且在其今后的生活中，为明确起见，体会这种差异常常是很可取的。因此，句子学生们可以选修不超过三门的课程 给能力超常的学生学更多的课程提供了可能性， 然而学生们只能选修不超过三门的课程 则不能提供这种可能性。 can 的用法更可用于否定疑问句中表示许可， 如 我今晚不能使用这车吗？ ， 或许是由于可替代的缩写mayn't 感觉起来有些笨拙的缘故 〔differential〕Constituting or making a difference; distinctive.区别的：构成或制造差异；显著〔sandhi〕Modification of the sound of a morpheme in certain phonetic contexts, as the difference between the pronunciation ofdon't in don't you and in don't we. 词素变音：据上下文产生的一个词素发音变异，如don't 在 don't you 和 don't we 中发音的差异 〔differentia〕An attribute that distinguishes one entity from another, especially an attribute that distinguishes one species from others of the same genus.差异：将一个事物与其它事物区分开的特性，特别是指相同种类的物质区分开的特性〔slip〕The difference between optimal and actual output in a mechanical device.差异：机械设备的理想输出与实际输出之间的差异〔windage〕The difference in a given firearm between the diameter of the projectile fired and the diameter of the bore of the firearm.游隙：某一特定火器枪弹的直径与火器镗孔的直径之间的差异〔logocentrism〕Excessive attention paid to the meanings of words or distinctions in their usage.文字中心法：于文字含义或用法差异的过度专注〔discrepance〕Discrepancy.差异，不符合，不一致〔difference〕a striking dissimilarity between the personalities of the sisters.姐妹间个性的显著差异。〔differential〕A difference in wage rate or in price.工资级差：工资或价格上的差异 |
