老師-辭典第133天

133(2016/7/5)：第1321頁：possibility,probabilitypossibilityprobabilitypossibilityitmightbethecaseanditmighthappen.相比之下《牛津高階》的解釋則強調(diào)“不太確定的可能性”（…butisnotcertainto）而probability則強調(diào)那種可以用數(shù)值表現(xiàn)出來的可能性，看來probability翻譯成“幾率”更為合aprobabilitythatsomethingwillhappenwhenitislikelytohappenislikelytohappen，而possibility的解釋是mighthappen，看來在表示可能性的時候，probability的幾率還是要大一些。說起兩個詞的差異，還有一段無從考證的軼事，1996年關系緊張，通過公司對臺海進行判斷，公司在素以預測準確著稱，其中比較準確的預測是1950年的，當時花費高價請公司預測否參戰(zhàn)公司的結論是一句話中國將出兵那么1996年關系是否到達開戰(zhàn)的邊緣呢？公司的回答很有意思：開戰(zhàn)有possibility，但是沒有possibility用于寫作possibility,記住一個短語結構Itisbeyondthepossibilitythat，然后在后面加句子就可以了，然后再用Asamatteroffact：Inavirtualworld,itisbeyondthepossibilitythatoneendsupathomeforhisdailylife communication.Asamatteroffact,Internetisdeprivingtheopportunityoflivinganormallifefromthosepeoplewholackself-control.（在虛擬世界內(nèi)，一個人不可能宅在家homeforhisdailylifewithout
