| 单词 | 议案 |
| 释义 | 〔compare〕The committee will have to compare the Senate's version of the bill with the version that was passed by the House. 委员会需要将参议院议案的版本与下议院通过的作比较。 〔pocket〕To prevent (a bill) from becoming law by failing to sign until the adjournment of the legislature.否决（议案）：通过直到立法机关休会前还未签署，来阻止（一项议案）成为法律〔omnibus〕an omnibus trade bill.一项综合贸易议案〔item〕A clause of a document, such as a bill or charter.条款：文件中的条款，例如一个议案或者是一个章节〔author〕The verbauthor, which had been out of use for a long period, has been rejuvenated in recent years with the sense "to assume responsibility for the content of a published text.” As such it is not quite synonymous with the verbwrite ; one can write, but not author, a love letter or an unpublished manuscript,and the writer who ghostwrites a book for a celebrity cannot be said to have "authored" the creation. The sentenceHe has authored a dozen books on the subject was unacceptable to 74 percent of the Usage Panel, probably because it implies that the fact of having a book published is worthy of special lexical distinction, a notion that sits poorly with conventional literary sensibilities,and which seems to smack of press agentry.The sentenceThe Senator authored a bill limiting uses of desert lands in California was similarly rejected by 64 percent of the Panel, though here the usage is common journalistic practice,and is perhaps justified by the observation that we do not expect that legislators will actually write the bills to which they attach their names. ·The verbcoauthor is well established in reference to scientific and scholarly publications, where it serves a useful purpose,since the people listed as authors of such works routinely include research collaborators who have played no part in the actual writing of the text,but who are nonetheless entitled to credit for the published results.动词author， 很长一段时间不再使用， 近年来又以“对某一出版作品的内容负有责任”的含义重新起用。因此，它已不完全同动词write 同义； 一个人可以写一封求爱信或未出版的草稿，但不是作者，某一人即使雇人写出一篇杰作也不能说是“创作”了作品。对句子他已就这个论题创作了十二部作品 74%的用法专题小组不能接受， 可能因为它暗示着一个事实，即一本已出版的书一定有特别的词汇意义上区别的价值，这是与传统文学观念不太相容的概念，并带有出版机构的意味。此句参议员提出了一个限制使用加利福尼亚地区沙漠土地的议案 ，同样有64%的用法专题小组成员不能接受， 虽然这里这种用法是新闻界实践的惯用。这恐怕是因为我们并不希望立法人员真的是写作一项议案然后在其上署上他们的名字吧。·动词coauthor 是在科学及学术发表论文的意义上建立的， 这里这个词的使用有一个重要意义，因为创作者名单上列出作为这部作品创作者的人通常包括共同研究人员，既使他们实际上并未参加写作，但不可否认地对出版物的结果做出了贡献〔mutual〕Mutual is uncontroversially used to describe a reciprocal relationship between two or more things, in which use it can be paraphrased by expressions involvingbetween or each other. Thustheir mutual animosity means "their animosity for each other" or "the animosity between them,” anda mutual defense treaty is one in which each party agrees to come to the defense of the other. Butmutual is also widely used where one might expect "common,” as inThe bill serves the mutual interests of management and labor and particularly in the expressionour mutual friend, which was widespread even before Charles Dickens used it as the title of a novel.Critics have often objected to this use,but it is well established in reputable writing.However,mutual in this latter sense is reserved to describe relations that hold between two or more specific parties and a third person or thing. It cannot be used as a substitute forcommon in the sense "general": Mutual 毫无争议地被用来描述两者或者更多事物之间的相互关系， 可以用一些包括between 或 each other 的表达来解释。 因此他们相互的敌意 意思为“他们彼此之间产生的敌意”或者“他们之间的敌意”， 相互防御条约 意为一个政党同意帮助另一政党进行防御的条约。 但是Mutual 也广泛地用来表示“共同的”， 就象在这个议案满足劳资双方的需要。 特别是在短语我们共同的朋友， 甚至在查理·狄更斯把它作为一本小说名之前就已经广泛应用。评论家们一直以来常常反对这种用法，但是在规范的写作中它已被完全确定下来了。但是mutual 后来产生的意思被用来描述两个或者更多特定元素及物和第三者之间的关系。 当意为“普遍的”时，它不能代替common 来表述“总体”的含义： 〔moot〕To bring up as a subject for discussion or debate.提出…作为议案：提出议题以供讨论或辩论〔railroad〕railroad a special-interest bill through Congress.促成一项特殊利益议案草率通过国会〔table〕Two new proposals are on the table.两个新议案正有待讨论〔for〕Were they for or against the proposal?他们支持这项议案还是反对呢?〔meet〕The housing bill met with approval.住房议案被通过了〔motion〕A formal proposal put to the vote under parliamentary procedures.提议：一种在议会程序下进行的向投票席做出的正式议案〔markup〕A session of a U.S. congressional committee at which a legislative bill is put into final form.最终审定：美国国会委员会最终通过某项法律议案的一种会议形式〔incentivize〕"This bill will help incentivize everybody to solve that part of the problem"(Richard A. Gephardt)See Usage Note at -ize “这个议案有助于鼓励人们来解决问题的那一部分”(理查德A.格法德) 参见 -ize〔commitment〕The act of referring a legislative bill to committee.交付：将立法议案交归委员会的行动〔Byzantine〕a bill to simplify the Byzantine tax structure.一项简化错综复杂的财税结构的议案〔passage〕Enactment into law of a legislative measure.（议案）通过：把立法议案制定为法律〔veto〕An official document or message from a chief executive stating the reasons for rejection of a bill.否决理由书：由主行政官给出的一份官方文件或者咨文，表明反对议案的原因〔vote〕a heavy vote in favor of the bill.赞成议案的压倒多数〔sledding〕"The bill . . . faces tough sledding in Congressional conference"(New York Times)“那个议案…面临议会会议的巨大阻挠”(纽约时报)〔supermajority〕A percentage higher than 50 percent required for approval of a motion or an action determined by vote, as among the shareholders of a company.极大多数：投票表决通过一动议或议案的票数，多于50%，如一公司的股东们投票的情况〔commit〕To refer (a legislative bill, for example) to a committee.把（例如立法议案）提交委员会〔pass〕The legislature passed the bill.立法机关通过了这项议案〔report〕The committee reported the new tax bill out.委员会呈了交新的纳税议案〔pass〕The bill passed the House of Representatives.这项议案被众议院通过了〔veto〕The vested power or constitutional right of one branch or department of government to refuse approval of measures proposed by another department, especially the power of a chief executive to reject a bill passed by the legislature and thus prevent or delay its enactment into law.否决权：政府的分支或部门的既定权力或宪法权利，用以否定另一个部门提出的法案，特别是指行政官的否决由立法部门通过的议案的权力，如此阻止或耽误议案生效并成为法律〔boost〕a bill intended to boost local charities.一项意在刺激地方慈善事业增长的议案〔logrolling〕The exchanging of political favors, especially the trading of influence or votes among legislators to achieve passage of projects that are of interest to one another.互投赞成票：交换政治上的赞同意见，尤指议员之间的政治影响或选票交易，目的在于促成对彼此都有利的议案的通过〔urge〕urge passage of the bill; a speech urging moderation.竭力推行这个议案的通过；极力主张适度的讲演〔Lee〕American Revolutionary leader who proposed the resolution calling for the independence of the American colonies from England (1776).李，理查德·亨利：(1732-1794) 美国独立战争期间的领导人，提出北美殖民地脱离英国(1776年）获得独立的议案〔sponsor〕A legislator who proposes and urges adoption of a bill.倡议者，提案人：提出和促使议案被采纳的立法者〔kill〕kill a congressional bill.否决一项国会议案〔pensive〕The judge looked thoughtful, then granted the motion.法官沉思了一会儿，然后批准了这一议案。 |
