This post was last edited by Pingsha on 2012-3-1 15:26. Recently on Weibo, a friend came up with a new interpretation of the saying “One apple a day, keep the doctor away”: If you use an iPhone every day, you won’t be able to get a PhD. Interesting, right? For this issue’s topic, we would like to use this opening to discuss synonyms in chemical engineering English. Maybe it can be continued as an activity. The rules of the game are tentatively as follows: 1. Each participant must provide synonyms for the English words given above, along with relevant explanations and translations. Related expansions that provide a knowledge background are available; 8 wealth points are awarded for each one, with a maximum of 30 wealth points. 2 Then, a word with a synonymous or similar meaning is provided as a basis for answering the question below. 3 To avoid confusion during simultaneous responses, for multiple entries for the same word, the first responder is considered the valid one. The repeater is given 3 points of wealth as an incentive prize, and the question they submitted will be invalidated. The administrator retains the right to edit this building.

\"Press\" means to apply pressure; \"crush\" means to crush something completely, haha. Down below: LG – it has many meanings; it depends on how you interpret it.

LG: level gauge refers to a liquid level meter; I use level indicator for displaying the liquid level, and level transmitter for transmitting the liquid level data. Downstairs, please use spiral
