这是一部超级厚重的词典

将近两千页，两公斤。2011年到手，如今过去三年，几乎是全新的。问zt看完这部词典要多久，她说绝无可能。我说花上一年多看完一遍应该没有问题吧。发现，看完也是一个大坑，每天看10个页码需要将近200天，但昨天尝试看了一页，花了我半个小时时间。每天没有可能花上几个小时看这个没有用的东西。翻阅这部书纯粹是无聊，不为无益事何以遣生涯？或许过了一年以后看完了，抑或仍然是新书，回头转手时发现已经出了第二版了。谁会花时间去看一部字典？毫无目的的。20140527

连续几天忙各种事情，没有翻过任何一页，昨天为了查单词看了眼，authoritarian resilience，authoritarian是not allowing personal freedom；resilience是the ability to become strong, healthy,or successful again after something bad happens, the ability of something to return to its original shape after it has been pulled, stretched, pressed ,bent, etc.译为威权韧性，是哪门子的韧性？0605
