〔admission〕It is often maintained that admittance should be used only to refer to achieving physical access to a place (He was denied admittance to the courtroom), and that admission should be used for the wider sense of achieving entry to a group or institution (her admission to the club; China's admission to the United Nations). This distinction is often ignored, though many writers continue to observe it. But admission is much more common in the sense "a fee paid for the right of entry": 通常人们认为 admittance 只用于表示身体进入到某处(他被拒绝进入法庭),而 admission 应用于更广的意义,表示获得加入某个团体或机构(允许她加入俱乐部;允许中国加入联合国)。这个区别通常被忽视,虽然许多作家继续注意这点。但是 admission 更普遍用于表达“为进入权所付的费用”: |
