例句： The report is underpinned by ample research.
2. 體會這個詞 （進(jìn)階篇）
“underpin”是動詞贯涎，本意表示“用磚石結(jié)構(gòu)等從下方支撐（建筑物）”，也常引申表示“鞏固萄涯、支撐”“構(gòu)成…的基礎(chǔ)”妄帘。underpin 是一個靈活、高頻兄裂、形象的表達(dá)句旱，經(jīng)常可以用來替換 justify, support 等詞晰奖，我們從幾個例句中掌握它的用法谈撒。
這份報道是經(jīng)過充分研究得出的，就可以說成：
The report is underpinned by ample research.
我們常說“先做人再做事”匾南，也就是說價值觀是取得成功和幸福的基礎(chǔ)啃匿，因此可以說成：
Our values underpin our long-term success and happiness.
《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》中也經(jīng)常用到 underpin，比如：
1）You might think that America’s clout comes from its 11 aircraft-carriers, 6,500 nuclear warheads or its anchor role in the IMF. But it is also the central node in the network that underpins globalisation.（這里的 underpin 寫出了美國在全球化中的位置）
2）American officials also made clear that they view Huawei as a threat to national security, since it builds the telecoms networks that underpin modern societies.
3）The security of such systems is likely to be protected by blockchain, the technology that underpins cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.
3. 從認(rèn)識到會用（作業(yè)）
1）翻譯下面的句子： 他用詳實的數(shù)據(jù)支撐他的觀點蛆楞。
