effectʹer n.(名词)effectʹible adj.(形容词)effect, consequence, result, outcome, upshot, sequel- These nouns denote something, such as an occurrence, a situation, or a condition, that is brought about by a cause.Aneffect is produced by the action of an agent or a cause and follows it in time: 这些名词表示由某种原因引起的事物,如事件、情况或条件等。effect 是由行为者的行为或原因产生并随后产生的: "Every cause produces more than one effect" (Herbert Spencer).Aconsequence also follows a cause and is traceable to it, but the relationship between them is less sharply definable: “每个原因可产生多个结果” (休伯特·斯宾塞)。consequence 也由原因引起并可追溯到该原因, 但两个词间的关系并不能严格界定: "Servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt" (John P. Curran). Aresult is an effect, or the last in a series of effects, that is viewed as the end product of the operation of the cause: “强制劳动立即成为他犯罪的结果和对其罪行的惩罚” (约翰·P·卡伦)。result 是一种结果,或系列结果中最后一个,被认为是原因作用下产生的最后结果: "Judging from the results I have seen . . . I cannot say . . . that I agree with you" (William H. Mallock).Anoutcome is a result but more strongly than result implies finality and may suggest the operation of a cause over a relatively long period: “从我看到的后果来看…我不能说…我同意你” (威廉·H·马洛克)。outcome 作为一种结果比 result 要强烈, 表示最终结果或原因作用了较长一段时间以后的结果: If you had refused, the outcome would probably not have been very different. Anupshot is a decisive result, often of the nature of a climax: 如果你拒绝的话,结局也许也不会有什么不同。 upshot 是一种决定性结果,常用于形容高潮: "The upshot of the matter . . . was that she showed both of them the door" (Robert Louis Stevenson).Asequel is a consequence that ensues after a lapse of time: “事情的结局…是她把两人都赶出了门” (罗伯特·路易斯·史蒂文森)。sequel 是一种在一段时间之后再产生的结果: "Our dreams are the sequel of our waking knowledge" (Ralph Waldo Emerson).See also Synonyms at perform “我们的梦想是我们清醒时意识的继续” (拉尔夫·瓦尔多·爱默生) 参见同义词 perform
