今天我們要學的詞是 cease.
cease 的意思是停止。 Beijing has long advocated a “dual suspension” approach, in which North Korea would halt its nuclear and missile activities, while the U.S. and South Korea cease large-scale joint military exercises. 北京長期以來主張朝鮮停止其核武和導彈活動,同時美國和韓國停止大規(guī)模聯(lián)合軍事演習這種“雙方暫停”的方式。
Ceasing to be 是cease的常用法之一,意思是不再。Physical disability is quickly ceasing to be an obstacle on the path to professional sports, thanks to advanced equipment and technical progress. 由于先進的設備和技術上的進步,身體殘疾很快就不再是專業(yè)運動的障礙。
