這是個(gè)什么詞墨礁？
詞：proximity
英英釋義：nearness in distance or time
例句：Many residents buy properties for their proximity to excellent public schools.
2. 為什么選這個(gè)詞朦前？
“proximity”是不可數(shù)名詞，意思是“臨近平夜、接近”。proximity 后面一般加介詞 to。這個(gè)詞比較常見(jiàn)梆奈，是較為正式的用法，在口語(yǔ)和寫(xiě)作中都可以使用称开，用來(lái)替換 near亩钟。大家可能認(rèn)識(shí)的 approximately（大約）一詞和 proximity 同詞源，兩個(gè)詞可以放在一起來(lái)記鳖轰。下面通過(guò)幾個(gè)例子來(lái)掌握這個(gè)詞清酥。
東莞的發(fā)展得益于它毗鄰深圳的區(qū)位優(yōu)勢(shì)，就可以說(shuō)：
Dongguan's economic growth is largely thanks to its proximity to Shenzhen, a booming local hub.
很多人在買(mǎi)房的時(shí)候會(huì)考慮到房子和優(yōu)秀公立學(xué)校的距離蕴侣，我們就可以說(shuō)：
Many residents buy properties for their proximity to excellent public schools.
《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》一篇關(guān)于土耳其航空公司和機(jī)場(chǎng)的文章中用到了 proximity：
Finally, Istanbul is helped by its proximity to Europe.
這句說(shuō)的就是土耳其的區(qū)位優(yōu)勢(shì)焰轻。當(dāng)我們想表達(dá)“區(qū)位優(yōu)勢(shì)”的時(shí)候，就可以用 proximity 這個(gè)靈活的單詞昆雀。
《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》一篇關(guān)于歐洲移民的文章中也用到了 proximity：
Ukrainians enjoy the freedom, boosted by a visa liberalisation in 2017, to travel to the EU and hundreds of thousands have exercised this right in the past five years. Most went to Poland, attracted by its proximity, its cultural-linguistic similarities and its booming economy.
在一篇寫(xiě)盧旺達(dá)大屠殺 25 周年紀(jì)念的文章中辱志，《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》引用了一位英國(guó)學(xué)者的話(huà)，其中出現(xiàn)了 proximity：
“No other country today has so many perpetrators of mass atrocities living in such proximity to their victims’ families,” writes Phil Clark of the School of Oriental and African Studies in London.
3. 怎樣學(xué)會(huì)使用這個(gè)詞狞膘？
1）翻譯下面的句子： 天津雖然緊鄰北京揩懒，但它的經(jīng)濟(jì)好像并未因此而獲益。
Despite its proximity to Beijing, the capital city, Tianjin does not seem to have benefited much economically from it.
It seems that Tianjin's economy has not benefited enormously from its close proximity to Beijing, the capital city.
（參考翻譯：Despite its proximity to Beijing, the capital city, Tianjin does not seem to have benefited much economically from it. 或 It seems (that) Tianjin's economy has not benefited enormously from its close proximity to Beijing, the capital city.）
2）結(jié)合自己的生活挽封、學(xué)習(xí)已球、工作、興趣等辅愿，想象在什么語(yǔ)境下會(huì)用到這個(gè)表達(dá)智亮。先簡(jiǎn)要描述這個(gè)場(chǎng)景，再造句点待。
例子： 商業(yè)
場(chǎng)景：Asia is the engine of growth today, he says, pointing to the millions of consumers across the region who are reaching the middle class. UNIQLO will open its first shop in India this year attracted by its proximity and its booming economy and is considering whether to expand into Vietnam and other countries.
