The word in the formtenetz is first recorded in a work written around 1400. The game referred to is what is now calledcourt tennis, or real tennis, which is played on a large indoor court with a specially marked-out floorand high cement walls off which the ball may be played.It seems likely that the Middle English formtenetz is from tenetz, an Anglo-Norman variant of the Old French word tenez, the imperative oftenir, "to hold,” and meaning "receive,” said by the server to his opponent.As this evidence indicates, tennis originated in medieval France,but the French called the game, then as now,la paume. Bytennis we do not mean what tenetz or la paume meant but rather lawn tennis, a term first recorded around 1874, shortly after an early form of lawn tennis, descended from court tennis, was introduced. Unlike court tennis, which is traditionally associated with the rich and the royal, tennis is open to players from a wide spectrum of society,although it certainly is not unconnected with the rich and the royal.令人惊讶的是，尽管人们对这项运动的历史知之甚多，但tennis 一词的起源却不被人所详细了解。 在约1400年，此词以tenetz 的形式第一次出现在书面上。 其所指的运动就是现在所谓的court tennis 或 real tennis ， 这是一种在有标记的地板的室内场地上进行的运动，场地四周有很高的泥灰墙。而中古英语的tenetz 有可能是从 tenetz 这个古法语中的盎格鲁-诺曼变体 tenez 得来的。 而该古法语词又是tenir 一词的祈使式， 意为“抓住，握住”，而发球人对其对手说时意义为“接住”。这一例子似乎说明网球运动起源于中世纪的法国，但是在法语中，这项运动从古至今一直被称为la paume 。 我们用tennis 这一词其实指代的不是 tenetz 或者 la paume 指代的事物，而是 lawn tennis 这一在1874年前后第一次被记录的词语所指代的事物，此时由庭院网球演变而来的草地网球的一种早期形式正在被介绍开来。 不象传统上与富人和贵族联系紧密的庭院网球，网球运动适合社会各阶层的人，当然这并不是说这一运动就与富人和贵族没有联系〔source〕The report is thoroughly sourced.这项报告的来源很完备〔take〕As I take it, they won't accept the proposal.照我看，他们不会接受这项建议〔person〕applied for the job in person.亲自应聘这项工作〔task〕Her stint as a lifeguard usually consumes three hours a day.救生员这项工作每天通常花费她三个小时。〔qualm〕"My father's old-fashioned notions boggled a little at first to this arrangement . . . but his scruples were in the end overruled" (John Galt).“对这项安排，我父亲的老式观念开始时犹豫了一阵，…但是最终他的不安被推翻了” （约翰·盖特）。〔Halas〕American professional football player (1922-1929) and coach (intermittently between 1922 and 1967) who revolutionized the sport with his innovative backfield formations.哈拉斯，乔治·斯坦利：(1895-1983) 美国职业橄榄球选手（1922-1929年），并于1922年到1967年期间不时地出任教练，他以创新的守卫阵形使这项运动发生了巨大变革〔Camp〕American football coach and promoter who developed many of the sport's basic rules.坎普，沃尔特·昌西：(1859-1925) 美国橄榄球教练和推展者，他发展了这项运动的许多基本规则〔kind〕We have all kinds of time to finish the job.我们有充足的时间完成这项工作〔while〕The project wasn't worth my while.这项方案不值得我花工夫，〔last〕the last man for the job.对这项工作最不合适的人〔fit〕Specialized training fitted her for the job.让她做这项工作的专门训练〔decide〕A jury will determine whether the charges are true or false.陪审团将对这项指控的真伪作出裁决。〔effective〕The law is effective immediately.这项法律立即生效〔determination〕approached the task with determination and energy.坚决努力地致力于这项任务〔away〕toiled away at the project for more than a year.这项工程持续了一年多〔natural〕You are a natural for this job.你是这项工作的天才人选〔personnel〕An administrative division of an organization concerned with the body of persons employed by or active in it and often acting as a liaison between different departments.人事部门：一个组织的行政部门，与全体雇佣者或从事这项工作的人有关，并且经常作为两个不同部门之间的联络人而活动〔lead〕took the lead in setting the pace of the project.开始安排这项计划〔indictable〕Evidence suggested that the official was indictable for the crime.证据表明那个官员可被指控犯有这项罪行〔Shigemitsu〕Japanese diplomat who signed the surrender to the Allies, which formally ended World War II (September 2, 1945).重光，葵：(1887-1957) 签署向盟军投降的协议书的日本外交官，这项协议书正式结束了第二次世界大战（1945年9月2日）〔observe〕Celebrate in this comparison emphasizes observance in the form of rejoicing or festivity: Celebrate 在这项比较上强调以欢乐或喜庆形式的遵从： 〔approach〕approached the task with dread.惶恐地开始着手这项任务〔weigh〕The decision weighed heavily against us.See Synonyms at count 1这项决议对我们极为不利 参见 count1〔dismiss〕dismissed the claim as highly improbable.驳回这项极不可能推行的主张〔report〕The committee reported the bill.委员会提出了这项法案〔monopolize〕study that absorbs all her time;这项研究占去了她的全部时间；〔reassign〕reassigned the ambassador to a new post; reassigned the job to more experienced workers.将大使重新分配到一个新的职位上；将这项工作重新指派给更有经验的工人们〔laborious〕spent many laborious hours on the project.这项工程耗费了长期的艰辛劳动〔whatever〕She applied whatever strength she had left to the task.她将所有剩下的精力都用到这项任务上〔unqualified〕unqualified for the job.不适于干这项工作〔endurance〕Through hard work and endurance, we will complete this project.通过努力工作和坚持，我们将会完成这项方案〔employ〕employed much time and energy to the hobby.在这项业余爱好上花了大量时间和精力〔size〕Try this proposal on for size.有能耐就试试这项计划〔dexterous〕"This study [of law] renders men acute, inquisitive, dexterous, prompt in attack, ready in defense, full of resources" (Edmund Burke).“这项 研究指出男人敏锐，机警，进攻果断，随时准备防御、充满机智” （埃德蒙·柏克）。〔vote〕voted yes on the motion; voting against the measure.对这项运动上投赞同票；投票反对提案〔apart〕funds set apart for the project.为这项工程拨出的资金〔ineligible〕considered her ineligible for the job.认为她不适合这项工作 |
