| 释义 | 〔consensus〕Many grammarians have maintained that the expressionconsensus of opinion is redundant, inasmuch asconsensus itself denotes a judgment about which there is general agreement. Consensus of opinion has often been used by reputable writers, however, and has sometimes been defended on the grounds that a consensus may involve attitudes other than opinions;thus, one may speak of aconsensus of beliefs, or a consensus of usage. Nonetheless, the qualifying phrase can usually be omitted with no loss of clarity.The sentenceIt was the consensus of opinion among the sportswriters that the game should not have been played says nothing that is not said by 许多语法学家都认为短语consensus of opinion 这个说法是罗唆的， 因为consensus 本身就表示一种得到大多数同意的意见。 然而consensus of opinion 仍常常被知名作家所使用， 并且有时人们会辩解说它除了意见上的一致外可能还包括态度上的一致；因此，我们可以说consensus of beliefs（信仰一致） 或 consensus of usage（用法一致）。 尽管这样，限定性短语通常可以被省略而不会使表达不清楚。如体育新闻记者们的一致意见是这场比赛本不应该进行的 这个句子并不比 〔inarticulate〕Unable to speak with clarity or eloquence:拙于言辞的：表达不清楚的或不善言辞的：〔thick〕Not easy to hear or understand; indistinctly articulated:含糊不清的：不易听到或理解；表达不清楚的：〔vague〕Not thinking or expressing oneself clearly.模糊的：没有思考清楚的或自我表达不清楚的〔ambiguous〕 Obscure implies that meaning is hidden, either from lack of clarity of expression or from inherent difficulty of comprehension: Obscure 表示意思隐含，或者是因为表达不清楚，或者因为话本身就难以理解： |
