A prominent jazz pianist for 50 years, he first gained wide recognition for his recordings with Louis Armstrong in the 1920's.海因斯，厄尔：(1905-1983) 美国音乐家50年一直是显要的爵士乐钢琴家，20世纪20年代与路易斯·阿姆斯特朗联合灌制的唱片使他名声大噪〔mozzetta〕A short, hooded cape worn over the rochet by the pope and by bishops and other dignitaries.有帽短披风：教皇和高级教士及其他显要穿在教袍上的带兜帽短斗篷〔ranking〕Of the highest rank; preeminent.显赫的：最高职位的；显要崇高的〔chivalry〕The Age of Chivalry was also the age of the horse.Bedecked in elaborate armor and other trappings,horses were certainly well dressedalthough they might have wished for lighter loads.That the horse should be featured so prominently during the Age of Chivalryis etymologically appropriate,becausechivalry goes back to the Latin word caballus, "horse, especially a riding horse or packhorse.”Borrowed from French, as were so many other important words having to do with medieval English culture,the English wordchivalry is first recorded in works composed around the beginning of the 14th century and is found in several senses,including "a body of armored mounted warriors serving a lord" and "knighthood as a ceremonially conferred rank in the social system.”Our modern sense,"the medieval system of knighthood,”could not exist until the passage of several centuries had allowed the perspective for such a conceptualization,with this sense being recorded first in 1765.骑士时代同时也是马的时代。马被用精美的铠甲和其它马饰打扮起来，它们显然穿戴得很好，虽然它们可能会喜欢稍轻一些的负担。在骑士时代马被放在如此显要的地位，这从词源学上来看是恰当的，因为chivalry 一词可追溯到拉丁语中 caballus 一词， 即“马，尤其是用来骑的马或驮马”的意思。象与中世纪英国文化有关的许多其它重要的词一样，英语中chivalry 一词也是从法语中借用来的，最初出现在大约写于14世纪初的书籍中， 当时有好几个含义，其中包括：“为一名贵族服务的一队穿着铠甲、骑着马的武士”和“作为一种被正式授予的社会制度中等级的骑士资格”。我们现代的意义，即“中世纪的骑士制度”，是在几个世纪以后对这样一个概念的视角成为可能之时才出现的，这个意义最早出现在文字记载中是1765年〔succession〕The sequence in which one person after another succeeds to a title, throne, dignity, or estate.继承次序，接替顺序：一个人接着另一个人继承头衔、王位、显要职位或财产的次序〔crucial〕Extremely significant or important:关键性的：极其重要的，极其显要的：〔heavy〕Of great import or seriousness; grave:重大的，重要的；显要的：〔important〕Having or suggesting a consciousness of high position or authority; authoritative:显要的，权威的：感觉到或显示出高位或权威的；具有一种权威之神态的： |
