    示範例句 · Example

    In history class we read about the bombing of the old city during the war.

    逐字在歷史課我們讀到戰爭期間那座舊城的轟炸。

    bombing 講的是「用炸彈攻擊一個地方」這件事情,不是炸彈本身——炸彈本身是 bomb。可以想成 bomb(那個東西)→ bomb(動詞:用它攻擊)→ bombing(攻擊這件事)。它可以指一次攻擊(There were three bombings that year.),也可以指持續一段時間的攻擊(The bombing lasted for two nights.),所以有時候前面加 a,有時候不加。要說被攻擊的地方,用 the bombing of + 地點。

Picture bombs coming down on a place and tearing it open — dropped from the air, or left there by someone. Bombing is that event itself: it can name one attack, or a whole stretch of attacks one after another.

可以想成炸彈落到一個地方、把那裡炸開的畫面:可能是飛機從空中投下來的,也可能是有人事先放好的。bombing 指的就是這件事本身——用炸彈去攻擊一個地點。
