She married the playwright in 1582.哈瑟维，安妮：(1556?-1623) 威廉·莎士比亚的妻子，她于1582年嫁给了这位剧作家〔uranium〕The element uranium, whose discovery has been so vital to our nuclear age, owes its name to a preceding scientific discovery, that of the planet Uranus.Sir William Herschel, who discovered Uranus in 1781, named the planetGeorgium sidus, "the Georgian planet,” in honor of George III.Some also called itHerschel, but convention prevailed and the planet came to be calledUranus (the form in Modern Latin and English),the name of a heavenly deity like the rest of the planets.Called Uranus in Latin mythology and Ouranos in Greek,this god of the heavens was chosen because he was the father of Saturn (Greek Cronos), the deity of the planet next in line,who was the father of Jupiter (Greek Zeus), the deity of the next planet.The name of this new planet was then used in the name of a new chemical element,uranium, discovered eight years later by M.H. Klaproth. Klaproth, a German scientist, gave it the Latin nameuranium in honor of the discovery of Uranus. Uranium passed into English shortly thereafter, being first recorded in the third edition of theEncyclopedia Britannica, published in 1797. 元素铀的发现对现今的核子时代是至关重要的。它的名称是据在它之前发现的天王星命名的。威廉·赫歇尔爵士于1781年发现了天王星，并起名为Georgium sidus， “乔治的行星”， 用来纪念乔治三世。有人称之为赫歇尔， 但传统的力量更巨大，最终这颗行星被称之为Uranus （现代拉丁文和英语形式），如用其余的行星一样是用天神的名字命名的。在拉丁神话中被称作优拉纳斯神，而在希腊神话中被作优拉诺斯神，之所以选中这个天神因为他是萨图恩（希腊神话中为克洛诺斯）的父亲，而萨图恩是和他临近的行星；他还是朱庇特（希腊神话中的宙斯）的父亲，而宙斯又是下一颗临近的行星。这颗新行星的名字又用来命名一种新发现的化学元素，铀 是由M.H.克拉普罗特八年后发现的。 克拉普罗特这位德国科学家给予它铀 这种拉丁字母是为了纪念 天王星的发现。 Uranium在这之后不久进入英语， 首次出现于1797年出版的大不列颠百科全书 的第三版中 〔consist〕The beauty of the artist's style consists in its simplicity.这位艺术家的风格上的美在于它的简朴〔get〕The attorney got her client off with a slap on the wrist.这位律师使她的委托人仅受到轻罚就获释了〔charge〕the scientist who had overall charge of the research project.这位科学家全面负责管理这项研究项目〔pensive〕The scholar was reticent, aloof, and meditative.这位学者寡言少语、离群索居而且总在沉思。〔task〕The reporter's assignment was to attend the trial and interview the principals at its conclusion. 这位记者的任务是出席该次审判并在审判结束后采访被审问的几名主犯 〔intelligent〕The scholar's interest in the intellectual and analytical aspect of music didn't prevent her from enjoying concerts. 这位学者对音乐悟性和分析方面的兴趣并不影响她欣赏音乐会 〔doubtful〕the candidate's doubtful past.See Usage Note at doubt 这位候选人过去名声令人质疑 参见 doubt〔orderly〕The methodical housekeeper performs tasks according to a schedule.这位有条不紊的管家在管理其事务上严格遵循日程表。〔prevent〕Only quick thinking on the pilot's part averted a disastrous accident.只有这位飞行员的机智才能阻止这样可怕事件的发生。〔employ〕agreed to employ the job applicant.同意雇佣这位求职者〔lose〕a doctor who has lost very few patients.这位医生鲜有不能治愈的病人〔up〕After receiving the award, the performer was really up.在接受了颁奖后，这位表演者真是喜不自禁〔Piozzi〕British writer whose booksAnecdotes of the Late Samuel Johnson (1786) and Letters to and from the Late Samuel Johnson (1788) recount her friendship with the famed lexicographer. 皮奥齐，赫思特·林奇：(1741-1821) 英国作家，她的作品《已故塞缪尔·约翰逊博士的生活轶事》 （1786年）和 《已故塞缪尔·约翰逊博士的书信》 （1788年）记述了她与这位著名的辞典编撰家的友情 〔kick〕kicked off the promotional tour with a press conference for the author.以记者招待会揭开了这位作家的书籍促销活动的序幕〔teach〕The writer has disciplined himself to work between breakfast and lunch every day.这位作家已能训练自己每天在早饭和午饭之间工作。〔hail〕The crowds hailed the boxing champion.群众向这位拳击冠军喝彩〔trash〕"The . . . professor trashes conservative . . . proposals as well as liberal nostrums"(Michael Marien)“这位教授把保守派骂得一文不值…同时也提出自由主义可解决一切”(迈克尔·马林)〔Dictaphone〕"the master himself, alone and hunched over his dictaphone far into the night"(New Republic)"There's a dictaphone in the lab, so we're talking as we work"(Chicago Tribune)“这位领导自己单独地对他的口述录音机讲至深夜”(新共和国)“实验室里有一口述录音机，所以我们能谈我们工作的东西”(芝加哥论坛报)〔compleat〕"The compleat speechwriter . . . comes to anonymity from Harvard Law"(Israel Shenker)“这位学识渊博的演讲撰稿人…从哈佛的法律谈到无名氏问题”(伊斯雪尔·申克)〔harass〕Reporters hounded the celebrity for an interview.
