exceptionable/ikˈsepʃənəb(ə)l, ek-/adj. open to objection; to which exception may be taken 可反对的;可除外的 □ exceptionably adv.■ Usage 用法说明 Exceptionable should not be confused with exceptional. Note the difference in meaning between Her new book was unexceptionable (i.e. it contained nothing that would cause objections) and Her new book was unexceptional (i.e. it was mediocre). 不要将 exceptionable 与 exceptional 混淆。请比较以下两句 : Her new book was unexceptionable (她的新书不会引起争议(书中没有什么能引起争论的内容)) ; Her new book was unexceptional (她的新书没有什么特别之处(书很一般)) 。 |
