今天我們要學的詞是 premature.
Premature 的意思是尚未成熟、為時過早的。 South Korean officials think it is premature to tell whether the recent activity at some of the rocket facilities in North Korea involved preparation for a missile launch. 韓國官員認為,現(xiàn)在就談論朝鮮某些火箭設施的近期活動是否與準備發(fā)射導彈有關還為時過早。
Environmental monitoring groups said in a recent report that air pollution is the greatest environmental risk to health today, estimating it contributes to 7 million premature deaths every year. 環(huán)境監(jiān)測組織在最近的一份報告中表示,空氣污染是當今對人身健康的最大環(huán)境風險,估計每年造成700萬人過早死亡。
