This spelling has actually graced four different words:ballyhoo, "sensational advertising"; ballyhoo, a spelling of balao, a kind of fish; ballyhoo, a part of the name ballyhoo bird, about which more later; andballyhoo, a sailor's epithet for a disliked ship. This lastballyhoo (first recorded in 1836) was thought to be related to, or the same as, the word ballahou, from Spanishbalahú, "a type of schooner common in the Antilles.” First recorded in 1867,ballahou, besides being a term for a specific kind of ship, was also used contemptuously of inferior ships.But the connection between these sailing terms or the name of the fish and our wordballyhoo, first recorded in 1901, has not been established. There may, however, be a tie betweenballyhoo and the creature called a ballyhoo bird. According to a July 1880 article inHarper's, the bird had four wings and two heads and could whistle through one bill while singing through the other.Anyone who has ever hunted a snipe will know what hunting ballyhoo birds was like.单词ballyhoo 的来源一直存在种种推测。 这个词的拼写实际上包含有四个不同的词：ballyhoo， 意为“耸人听闻的广告”； ballyhoo， 是 balao 的一种拼写，是一种鱼； ballyhoo， 是 ballyhoo bird 的一部分,其出现更晚； 还有一个是ballyhoo， 是水手对不喜欢的船的称呼。 这最后一个ballyhoo （最早记载于1836年）被认为与 ballahou 有关或相同， 该词来自西班牙语balahu， 意为“流行于安的列斯群岛的一种纵帆船。” 首次记载于1867年，ballahou 一词除表示一种特殊的船外， 还表示同时代的劣等船。但这些与航海有关的词或鱼类名称的词与我们所使用的、首次记载于1901年的一词ballyhoo 之间尚未建立联系。 然而也许ballyhoo 一词与被称为 ballyhoo bird 的生物之间有某种联系。 根据1880年7月哈帕斯 杂志中一篇文章的描写， 这种鸟有四翅双头，可以用其中一张嘴吹哨，同时用另一张嘴唱歌。任何曾经猎过鹬鸟的人将会知道捕猎“巴里嗬”鸟是怎样的一种情景〔key〕An outline of the distinguishing characteristics of a group of organisms, used as a guide in taxonomic identification.检表：一组生物的明显特征的概括，用于指导分类检查〔Gilbert〕American biologist. He shared a 1980 Nobel Prize for developing methods of mapping the structure and function of DNA.吉尔伯特，沃尔特：(生于 1932) 美国生物学者，他因发展测定DNA的结构和功能的方法而分享了1980年的诺贝尔奖〔bioelectronics〕The application of the principles of electronics to biology and medicine.生物电子学：电子学原理对生物学和医学的应用〔biosatellite〕An artificial, recoverable satellite that is designed to carry and support humans, animals, or other living organisms.生物卫星：设计用于运送和搭载人、动物或其他生物的、人造可返回式卫星〔biodiversity〕The number and variety of organisms found within a specified geographic region.生物多样性：在特定地理区域的生物数量及种类〔inborn〕Possessed by an organism at birth.See Synonyms at innate 天生的：生物天生固有的 参见 innate〔Neotropics〕The biogeographic region of the New World that stretches southward from the Tropic of Cancer and includes southern Mexico, Central and South America, and the West Indies.新热带区：新世界生物地理区，从北回归线向南延伸包括墨西哥南部，中、南美洲与西印度群岛等地区〔pollute〕To make unfit for or harmful to living things, especially by the addition of waste matter.See Synonyms at contaminate 污染：使对活的生物不适宜或有害的，尤其是指通过废物的增加 参见 contaminate〔animatism〕A belief that all animate and inanimate objects are infused with a common life force.万物有灵论，泛灵论：相信所有的生物和非生物都具有共同的生命力〔critter〕Critter, a pronunciation spelling of creature, actually reflects a pronunciation that would have been very familiar to Shakespeare:16th- and 17th-century English had not yet begun to pronounce the-ture suffix with its modern (ch) sound. This archaic pronunciation still exists in regional Americancritter and in Irishcreature, pronounced (krāʹtŭr) and used in the same senses as the American regionalism. The most common meaning ofcritter is "a living creature,” whether wild or domestic; it also can mean "a child" when used as a term of sympathetic endearment,or it can mean "an unfortunate person.”In old-fashioned regional speech,critter and beast denoted a large domestic animal. The more restricted senses "a cow,” "a horse,” or "a mule" are still characteristic of the speech in specific regions of the United States.The use ofcritter among younger speakers almost always carries with it a jocular or informal connotation. Critter 是 creature 这一词的发音拼法， 实际上反映了一种莎士比亚极其通晓的发音法：16和17世纪的英语中还没有开始用现代英语中的(ch)音来发-ture 这一后缀的音。 这一古发音法仍存在于地区性美语critter 中， 而且在爱尔兰语中creature (kra'tur)的发音和用法与地区性美语相同。 critter 这一词的最通用的意思是“生物”，无论是野生的还是家养的； 作为昵称时，它可以作“小孩”解释；它还可以指“一个不幸运的人”。在老式的地区性语言中，critter 和 beast 意指大型的家畜。 它的更狭窄的含义“牛”、“马”或“驴”则仍然是美国某些特定地区的方言中的特有含义。年轻人对于critter 的用法则几乎总认为是带有恢谐或非正式的含义 〔rem〕The amount of ionizing radiation required to produce the same biological effect as one rad of high-penetration x-rays.雷姆：产生和一拉得强渗透的X光射线等量的生物反应的致电离辐射的数量〔biotron〕A climate-control chamber used for studying a living organism's response to specific environmental conditions.生物人工气候室：用于研究生物对具体环境条件的反应的气候控制室〔cladist〕One who classifies organisms according to the principles of cladistics.生物分类学家：依据生物分类学原理将有机体分类的人〔biostratigraphy〕The study of the spatial and temporal distribution of fossil organisms, often interpolated with radiometric, geochemical, and paleoenvironmental information as a means of dating rock strata.生物地层学：对有机体化石空间及时间分布的研究，常插入显示岩石地层时期方法的辐射探测仪信息、地球化学信息以及古代环境信息〔Notogaea〕A zoogeographic region including Australia, New Zealand, and the islands of the southwest Pacific Ocean.南界的：包括澳大利亚、新西兰地区以及西南太平洋岛屿的生物地理界的〔Perutz〕Austrian-born English biochemist.
