| 释义 | 〔behalf〕Traditionally,in behalf of and on behalf of have distinct senses. In behalf of means "for the benefit of,” as inWe raised money in behalf of the earthquake victims. On behalf of means "as the agent of; on the part of,” as inThe guardian signed the contract on behalf of the minor child. The two senses are quite close, however,and are often confused, even by reputable writers.传统上in behalf of 和 on behalf of 有着不同的意思。 In behalf of 意为“为了…的利益”， 如我们为地震受灾者筹款。 On behalf of表示“作为…的代理人；代表…”， 如监护人代表那个小孩签了合同。 但这两种意思相当接近，因此经常被弄混，连一些名作家也时常混用〔sentiment〕Romantic, nostalgic feeling verging on sentimentality.感伤：接近多愁善感的浪漫怀旧的情绪〔amount〕To add up in import or effect:等同，接近：重要性或效果相当于：〔near〕Closely corresponding to or resembling an original:近似的：非常类似的或接近原形的：〔Shasta〕A volcanic peak, 4,319.4 m (14,162 ft) high, of the Cascade Range in northern California.

Although this story is almost certainly apocryphal,it is true thatbigot was used by the French as a term of abuse for the Normans, but not in a religious sense. Later, however, the word, or very possibly a homonym,was used abusively in French for the Beguines, members of a Roman Catholic lay sisterhood.From the 15th century on Old Frenchbigot meant "an excessively devoted or hypocritical person.” Bigot is first recorded in English in 1598 with the sense "a superstitious hypocrite.” 一个偏执的人往往比人们想象的更接近上帝。传说第一位诺曼底公爵罗洛拒绝亲吻法国皇帝查理三世的脚时，说了bi got 这个词， 他是借用了假设的古英语里的词。其相当于我们今天的by God （老天作证）这一用法。 尽管这个故事肯定不足为信，但bigot 一词是确实是法国人对诺曼底人的蔑称， 然而无宗教色彩。后来，这个词，很可能是同音异义词，在法语中用来蔑指女修道者──罗马天主教姐妹会成员。从15世纪起，在古法语中，bigot 一词意为“过分虔诚或伪善的人”。 Bigot 首次以英语记载是在1598年，其意为“迷信的伪君子。” 〔beacon〕A signal fire, especially one used to warn of an enemy's approach.烽火：信号火，尤指警告敌人接近的〔infinite〕Infinite is sometimes grouped with absolute terms such asunique, absolute, and omnipotent, since in its strict mathematical sense it allows no degree modification or comparison;one quantity cannot be more infinite than another (though technically one infinite set can be larger than another).Unlike other absolute terms, however,infinite also does not permit modification by adverbs such as nearly and almost; mathematically, infinity is not approached by degrees.In nontechnical usage, of course,infinite is often used metaphorically to refer simply to an unimaginably large degree or amount, and here the comparison of the word is unexceptionable: Infinite 有时被一些表示绝对意义的词修饰， 如unique ， absolute 和 omnipotent ， 由于在其严格的数学意义上它不允许表示程度的修饰或比较，一个数不可能比另一个数“更加无穷大”（虽然以技术上讲一个无穷集可以比另一个集更大）。但是，与其它表示绝对意义的词不同，infinite 也不能用 nearly 和 almost 这一类副词来修饰； 以数学上讲，无穷大是不能逐步接近的。当然，在非技术性的用法中，infinite 常常隐喻地仅指明一个难以想象的大程度或数量， 在这种用法下，仍然不能使用比较： 〔barbican〕A tower or other fortification on the approach to a castle or town, especially one at a gate or drawbridge.望楼，碉楼：建在接近城堡或城镇处的塔楼或其他防御工事，尤指建于大门或吊桥附近者〔verge〕To tend to move in a particular direction:接近，濒于：倾向于向某一特定的方向移动：〔Icarus〕An asteroid with an eccentric orbit approaching within 30 million kilometers (19 million miles) of the sun.伊卡鲁斯：一个具有离心轨道的小行星，它在离太阳三千万公里（一千九百万英里）的范围内接近太阳〔access〕A means of approaching, entering, exiting, or making use of; passage.通道，入口，出口，使用途径：接近、进入、出去或使用的方法手段；通道〔preteen〕Being a child especially between the ages of 9 and 12; preadolescent.青春期前的儿童：主要指9岁到12岁之间的儿童；接近青春期的儿童〔superconductivity〕The flow of electric current without resistance in certain metals, alloys, and ceramics at temperatures near absolute zero, and in some cases at temperatures hundreds of degrees above absolute zero.超导电性：在接近绝对零度或在高于绝对零度几百度的温度下，电流在一些金属、合金或陶瓷器中无阻碍的流动〔immediate〕Of or near the present time:即将的：现在的，或接近现在的：〔near〕Just about; almost; nearly:几乎：差不多；几乎；接近：〔heretical〕Characterized by, revealing, or approaching departure from established beliefs or standards.异端学说的：以与已得到承认的信仰或标准分离为特征的，显示或接近这种分离的〔input〕The nouninput has been used as a technical term for about a century in fields such as physics and electrical engineering, but its recent popularity grows out of its use in computer science,where it refers to data or signals entered into a system for processing or transmission.In general discourseinput is now widely used to refer to the transmission of information and opinion, as inThe report questioned whether a President thus shielded had access to a sufficiently varied input to have a realistic picture of the nation or The nominee herself had no input on housing policy. In this last sentence the meaning of the term is uncertain:it may mean either that the nominee provided no opinions to the policymakersor that she received no information about housing policy.This vagueness in the nontechnical use ofinput may be one reason that some critics have objected to it (including, in an earlier survey, a majority of the Usage Panel). Though the usage is well established,care should be taken not to use the word merely as a way of pretending to a scientific precision unwarranted by the facts of the case.名词input 作为一个专业名词在象物理和电子工程领域已经被用了大约一个世纪， 但是它在计算机科学上的最新流行超出了原来的用法，在计算机科学上它指输入系统进行运行或传送的信息和信号。总的来说，input 广泛地用来指信息和观点的传送， 就象在报告怀疑这样保护起来的总统是否能获得接近足够多样信息的机会，从而有一幅这个国家的现实图景 或 被提名人自己没有关于房产政策的任何信息 。 在后一句中单词的定义是不确定的：它既可以指被提名人未向决策者提供任何建议，也可以指她未收到任何有关房产政策的信息。这种模糊在input 的非专业用法中有可能是一些批评家反对它（在一个早期调查中，其中包括大部分用法专题小组成员）的一个原因。 尽管这种用法已完全确立，用这个词时也应谨慎，不能把这个词仅仅用来伪装一种科学的精确性，而在这样的情况下，如此的精确性是不被事实所证明的〔vicinage〕The state of living in a neighborhood; proximity.接近；邻近：临近居住的状态；接近 |
