本系列文章给出了很多普通词汇的典雅措辞替代,这些典雅措辞并非来自晦涩的英语词汇书,而是全部来自计算机领域顶刊论文,所以是很合适的,并不会给人搬弄英语词汇的感觉。
本篇介绍everywhere 的替代表达ubiquitously。例句:
In the solar system, life doesn’t exist ubiquitously. We haven’t found life anywhere other than the earth.(在太阳系,生命并不是处处存在,我们在地球之外还没发现生命。)
Nowadays, computer technology is applied ubiquitously.(在现代,到处用到计算机技术。)
Once a deadlock occurs, the network will be blocked ubiquitously.(一旦死锁发生,网络到处都会堵塞。)
Information security is based on an assumption that ubiquitous adversaries will eavesdrop on the channel.(信息安全基于一个假设,就是无处不在的敌手会在信道上窃听。)
这一句用了ubiquitously 的形容词。
说明一下,everywhere 可以用做代词,这时是不能用ubiquitously 替代的,例如下句不能替代:
Broadcast is a way of communication such that messages are sent to everywhere.(广播是这样一种通信方式:信息发送到每一个地方。)
