原文
Corruption
When an official of a government or business is acting dishonestly,we say that this person is corrupt.
Corruption is a serious problem in many countries around the world.
There are several different kinds of corrupt practices,including bribes,kickbacks,nepotism and embezzlement.
A bribe is a payment of money or some other benefit in exchange for a decision that would not otherwise be made.
For example,an accused criminal might bribe a judge so that the judge might make a decision of“no guilty”.
Another example is that a business owner might bribe a government official,so that the official would allow the construction of very unsafe buildings.
A kickback is similar to a bribe,except that the official receives some part of the money in a dishonest business deal.
For example,governments sometimes decide which company should build a road.
A company might offer some money to a government official who makes the decision,so that this company will be chosen,even if it is not the best company for the job.
Nepotism happens when an official unfairly gives advantages to his or her relatives.
For example,a government official might hire a brother or sister to do a job even though other people might be much better qualified for that job.
Of course,all of us want to help our relatives,but it is wrong to do this at the expense of the public.
Embezzlement happens when an official secretly steals some money from a company or government.
For example,a manager at a company might secretly move some of the company's money to his or her own bank account,and that manager might lie about his or her expenses in order to receive more payment from the company.
Corruption has very bad effects on people in several ways.
Sometimes it can lead to very dangerous situations.
One example of this is when unsafe construction projects are approved by officials who have been bribes.
Another example is when criminals are freed as a result of bribes.
Also,a country's economy can be damaged by corruption.
For example,if companies must pay bribes in order to do business,then they may decide to leave the country.
Also,if people's tax money is stolen by corrupt officials,this makes the people poorer.
In addition,when company officials are corrupt,it makes the company less able to compete with other companies.
How can corruption be stopped?
An important step is for each person to decide not to act in ways that are corrupt
People must agree to take this problem seriously.
Also,each company and each government must have strict rules about corruption
It must be very clear to all employees-from the lowest to the highest-that corruption is totally unacceptable.
level怎么讀
單詞"level"的讀音是/?l?v?l/。 一、單詞發(fā)音 level的讀音為/?l?v?l/,其中的音標(biāo)表示了每個(gè)音素的發(fā)音。第一個(gè)音素/l/是一個(gè)清晰的輔音音素,發(fā)音時(shí)舌頭輕觸上齒齦發(fā)出。 第二個(gè)音素/?/是一個(gè)短元音,發(fā)音時(shí)舌頭放平,嘴唇稍微張開,舌尖略向前。第三個(gè)音素/v/是一個(gè)唇齒摩擦音,發(fā)音時(shí)唇齒輕觸發(fā)出摩擦聲。最后一個(gè)音素/?l/是一個(gè)中央中元音,發(fā)音時(shí)舌頭放松,嘴唇稍微張開。 二、level的詞源與意義 level一詞源自于中古英語的levell,意為“水平的”或“水平線”。它進(jìn)一步源自于古英語的l?fel,與古日耳曼語的lēwiz或lēza等詞有關(guān)。 在基本意義上,level表示一個(gè)物體或表面的平坦?fàn)顟B(tài)或水平位置。它可以指代水平線、平面或平坦的表面。此外,level還可以用作名詞,表示一個(gè)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)或等級(jí)。 三、拼寫變體與相關(guān)表達(dá) level這個(gè)詞的拼寫變體包括"leveled"和"levelling"(在美式英語中為"leveled"和"leveling")。這些變體在動(dòng)詞部分加上了-ed或-ing后綴,用于表示過去時(shí)或進(jìn)行時(shí)。 level可以用于構(gòu)成多個(gè)相關(guān)表達(dá),例如:ground level(地面水平線,指地面上的平坦部分)、eye level(視線水平線,指與眼睛的高度相同的水平線)、sea level(海平面,表示海洋表面的平坦高度)、level-headed(冷靜的,指思維清晰并沉著冷靜的態(tài)度)。 四、衍生詞匯與用法 level作為一個(gè)基礎(chǔ)單詞,衍生出許多相關(guān)詞匯和短語。以下是一些常見的衍生詞匯和用法:levelness(平坦度,表示表面的平整程度)、level off(趨于穩(wěn)定,表示保持平衡或穩(wěn)定狀態(tài))、level up(提升水平,指通過學(xué)習(xí)或訓(xùn)練提高某人的技能或能力)。
