Perhaps very young girls, who do not know what to do with a superabundance of affection, run up a kind of romantic liking for each other; but it never lasts—one good-looking young man would break up all the female friendships that ever were formed.

也许非常年轻的女孩，不知道如何处理过多的感情，会对彼此产生一种浪漫的爱慕；但这种爱慕不会持久——一个英俊的年轻男子会破坏所有女性之间的友谊。

Younger [Customs] examiners, who, perhaps, have not yet acquired the intuition resulting from years of experience, seem partly responsible for the closer examination of incoming luggage. Not only is this closer scrutiny arousing feelings of resentment among passengers, but it is causing serious delays in the departure of boat trains, many of which have been reaching their destinations two or three hours late.

The move-in area is one of the last, largely unsettled areas of Qinghai suitable for irrigated agriculture. The economic benefits touted by the WB for the project were largely undisputed. Crop yields near the move-in area were already three to four times higher than those in the move-out area, and the WB estimated that, in a few years, settlers would be able to triple or quadruple their incomes and have better health care and educational facilities than they had in eastern Qinghai.⁵¹⁸ While there were no schools for many settler group children in eastern Qinghai,⁵¹⁹ ten schools that would reflect the ethnic and language background of students were to be built for ethnic minority transmigrants.⁵²⁰ Because the settlers were to live in twenty-four compact villages in a small part of the county, they would have left the rest of it undisturbed.⁵²¹ Tibetans were to live in a separate area, near villages inhabited by fellow Buddhist ethnic Tu people.⁵²² The projected increase in economic activity in the county would likely provide some opportunities for those already living there. As pointed out by the Dalai Lama’s nephew, who lives in his uncle’s hometown in Ping’an County (part of the move-out area), those remaining in the move-out area would also benefit from an increase in available land there and from less strain on resources.⁵²³

1996，“No Time”, in Hard Core，演出者 Lil' Kim ft. Puff Daddy:

At 4pm, the phone went. It was The Sun: 'We hear your daughter's been expelled for cheating at her school exams...'
She'd made a remark to a friend at the end of the German exam and had been pulled up for talking.
As they left the exam room, she muttered that the teacher was a 'twat'. He heard and flipped—a pretty stupid thing to do, knowing the kids were tired and tense after exams. Instead of dropping it, the teacher complained to the Head and Deb was carpeted.

下午4点，电话响了。是《太阳报》打来的：“我们听说你女儿因在学校考试中作弊而被开除……”
她在德语考试结束时对一位朋友说了一句话，结果因为谈话而被叫了出去。
当他们离开考场时，她嘟囔着说老师是个“傻瓜”。他听到后勃然大怒——这是相当愚蠢的做法，因为他知道孩子们考试后很累很紧张。老师非但没有放下，反而向校长抱怨，黛布被狠狠地训斥了一顿。

decades

For decades American politicians have assumed that mass incarceration works, wooing voters with ever-tougher sentencing laws. The dramatic fall in crime since the 1990s has persuaded many that they were right. Locking up the worst criminals while they are young, fit and dangerous clearly makes America safer. But keeping sad cases[…]incarcerated past pensionable age serves little purpose. Prison has diminishing returns, and America long ago passed the point where jailing more people makes sense.

几十年来，美国政客们一直认为大规模监禁是有效的，他们用越来越严厉的量刑法来吸引选民。自1990年代以来，犯罪率的急剧下降让很多人相信他们是正确的。在最严重的罪犯还年轻、身体健康、危险的时候把他们关起来，似乎会让美国更安全。但让可悲的案例 […] 超过退休年龄的人继续服刑，却毫无意义。监狱的收益递减，美国早就过了监禁更多人的合理时间点。

skateboarder

The streets of Ukraine are scarred by war, but that isn’t stopping many young skateboarders from doing what they love to do. […] “It’s a way of feeling alive, even when everything around you is falling apart,” Vasilkan, a skateboarder from Odesa, told French photojournalist Robin Tutenges.

乌克兰的街道被战争所伤，但这并没有阻止许多年轻的滑板运动员做他们喜欢做的事情。 […] “这是一种活着的感觉，即使你周围的一切都崩溃了，”来自敖德萨的滑板运动员瓦西尔坎告诉法国摄影记者罗班·图滕热。

militaria

字面上等同於 military + -ia (“事物的集合”)。

/ˌmɪlɪˈtɛrɪə/

According to Denby, who has a store at 20 Birch Ave., the militaria market has grown up in recent years. "It used to be that only school boys were interested in collecting these things." Now with cap badges going for up to $4,000, the market has matured to the point where the collector has to know what he's doing or he can get "stung."

2014，Ross Skoggard，The Compleat Collector:


Higgs boson

源自 Higgs + boson; 以英國物理學家彼得·希格斯命名，他因提出現在所謂的希格斯機制而受到讚譽。由韓裔美國的理論物理學家Benjamin W. Lee 被普遍認為是這個術語的創造者。

The existence of a Higgs boson would be the simplest solution to the problem of electroweak symmetry breaking.

1987，Robert N. Cahn，“The Search for a Heavy Higgs Boson at the SSC”, in New and Exotic Phenomena: Proceedings of the Seventh Moriond Workshop，頁 468:

We also know other things about the Higgs boson. If it were much more massive, a problem would occur. Since Higgs bosons interact with particles with a large mass, Higgs bosons would also interact with themselves (as they have mass too). This “self interaction” puts an upper limit on the mass of the Higgs boson as less than about 500-1000 GeV.

2004，Don Lincoln，Understanding the Universe: 源自Quarks to the Cosmos，頁 239:

In the higher Higgs boson mass domain, the Higgs boson decays dominantly to a pair of b-quarks.

2011，Christopher G. Tully，Elementary Particle Physics in a Nutshell，頁 255:

Have you ever heard about the Higgs Boson Blues? / I'm going down to Geneva, baby / Gonna teach it to you

bozon

Chain book sellers are, by and large, bogon and bozon emitters like nothing you've ever seen.

1996，John Novak，“Re: TOR is Fucking with Us All”, in rec.arts.sf.written.robert-jordan (Usenet):

One bozon is the exact amount of stupidity and lack of scientific knowledge needed to confuse joules with watts.

2000，Jeffrey Yu，“[Fanfic] Flame Wars!!!”, in alt.startrek.vs.starwars (Usenet):

Riling people to the point of stupidity is a poor litmus test of their decency, no matter how red and blue their faces get. The result of these trolls seems only to show that the collision of large egos results in the ejection of energetic bozons.

2000，Dirt First!，“Re: Thanks for all the fish, but I'm vegetarian”, in comp.lang.perl.misc (Usenet):

There might be a superhigh concentration of bozons which will create a Stupid Hole and suck them all in.

axis of evil

由大衛·弗魯姆在2002造出 並於 2002 年由喬治·沃克·布希總統在國情咨文中首次公開使用。可能與德意日軸心的歷史類似。擴展到天文物理學 由若昂·馬蓋若在2005。

AOE

由於優先軸導致的宇宙微波背景溫度異常可能影響了宇宙的發展。

被喬治·沃克·布希指控支持恐怖主義和尋求大規模殺傷性武器的一組國家，最初定義為伊朗、伊拉克和北韓。

I discussed Iraq with Gerhard during his visit to the White House on January 31, 2002. In my State of the Union address two days earlier, I had outlined the threats posed by Iraq, Iran, and North Korea. “States like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world,” I said. The media seized on the phrase “axis of evil.” They took the line to mean that the three countries had formed an alliance. That missed the point. The axis I referred to was the link between the governments that pursued WMD and the terrorists who could use those weapons. There was a larger point in the speech that no one could miss: I was serious about dealing with Iraq.

2002 年 1 月 31 日，當格哈德訪問白宮時，我與他討論了伊拉克問題。兩天前的國情咨文中，我概述了伊拉克、伊朗和北韓所構成的威脅。我說：「這些國家以及他們的恐怖主義盟友構成了邪惡軸心，武裝起來威脅世界和平。」媒體抓住了「邪惡軸心」這個詞。他們認為這句話意味著這三個國家已經結盟了。但那並沒有抓到重點。我提到的軸心是追求大規模殺傷性武器的政府與能夠使用這些武器的恐怖分子之間的連結。演講中還有一個更重要的要點是任何人都不會忽略的：我對處理伊拉克問題持嚴肅態度。

2010，喬治·沃克·布希，抉擇時刻, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL，頁 233:

Communist China is on a mission for dominance. At the helm of the New Axis of Evil, China has indicated they will invade independent countries and destroy democratic leadership to achieve that end. My recent visit to Taiwan made it abundantly clear that the leaders in Taiwan want the United States and our allies to stand with them as they fight to keep their independence.

共產中國正肩負著稱霸的使命。作為新邪惡軸心的掌舵人，中國已表示他們將入侵獨立國家並摧毀民主領導層以達到這一目的。我最近對台灣的訪問非常清楚地表明，台灣領導人希望美國和我們的盟友與他們站在一起，共同維護台灣的獨立。

One morning we had vast quantities of sea-horses about the ship, which neighed exactly like any other horses.

1789，Olaudah Equiano，章號 9, in The Interesting Narrative，卷 I:

Instead, it seems to be a unique case that ends in the tail of a hippocamp or seahorse, although with one fin now missing. Ultimately, the form might have been inspired by bent-leg vases produced in Greece.

2013，Richard Daniel De Puma，Etruscan Art in the Metropolitan Museum of Art，頁 107:

乔治五世国王统治期间发行的一系列高价值英国邮票之一，描绘了不列颠尼亚乘坐战车在波涛汹涌的大海中航行的场景

As most authors mention the hippopotamus under the names of the sea-horse, or the sea-cow, he has sometimes been confounded with the latter, which inhabits only the northern seas.

1830, Georges Louis Le Clerc (Count de Buffon), The Natural History of Quadrupeds (page 331)

The sea-horse teeth (so called) are the tusks of the hippopotamus.
