| 释义 | 〔wait〕To postpone going to bed in anticipation of something or someone.熬夜等候：为等待某事或某人而推迟睡觉〔wait〕For more than a hundred years critics have stigmatized the use ofwait on ( and somewhat less frequentlywait upon ) to mean roughly "await" or "wait for,”as inWe are still waiting on the committee vote. This use is so widespread in both educated speech and reputable writingthat the traditional objections have come to seem unnecessary.一百多年来评论家一直贬低wait on ( 有时也较少使用wait upon ) 作为“等待”或“等候”意义的用法，如在我们仍在等待委员会的投票。 这种用处在演讲和写作中用的是如此普遍，以至于原来的反对已经看起来不必要了〔abode〕from abiden [to wait] * see abide 源自 abiden [等候] * 参见 abide〔induct〕a draftee waiting to be inducted into the army.等候被应召入伍的士兵〔bide〕past tense bided To await; wait for.【过去时态】 bided 等待；等候…〔wait〕The act of waiting or the time spent waiting.等：等的行为或等候的时间〔ride〕waiting for her ride to come.她等候自己的车子开来〔abide〕To be in store for; await:储存备用；等候：〔carhop〕One who waits on customers at a drive-in restaurant.“免下车”餐馆的服务员：在“免下车”餐馆等候顾客的人〔abide〕"I will abide the coming of my lord"(Tennyson)“我将等候上帝的到来”(坦尼森)〔guardhouse〕A jail for the detention of military personnel guilty of minor offenses or awaiting court-martial.军人禁闭室：军队中拘禁犯有轻微过失的军人或等候军事宣判的军人的监牢〔resign〕I resigned myself to a long wait in line.我顺从地在长队中等候〔demure〕[past participle of] demurer [to delay, wait] * see demur demurer的过去分词 [拖延，等候] * 参见 demur〔lay〕Muggers lay for the unsuspecting pedestrian in the dark alley.拦路抢劫者等候在黑暗的小巷中准备袭击那些毫无防范的行人〔tape〕A string stretched across the finish line of a racetrack to be broken by the winner.终点线：拉在一条跑道的终点线上等候优胜者冲刺的一条细线〔casual〕A soldier temporarily attached to a unit while awaiting permanent assignment.暂编人员，分遣员：暂时编入某一单位等候固定任命的军士 |
