conclusion

★★★
🇺🇸 /kʌnklˈuʒʌn/
noun 编号: C02805 牛津3000 BNC #1282 COCA #1666
名词,核心意思是“收尾”或“收拢后的结果”:可以指事情的结束、由过程得到的结果,也可以指经过思考后作出的结论。
💡 记忆钩子
把一件事像合上门一样收拢起来:门合上的那一刻是事情的结束,由前面过程收拢出来的是结果,思考后把线索收拢成的判断就是结论;在逻辑和法律中,也可进一步指由前提推出的结论或正式的终结。
📝 学习建议
  • 建议先按“结束 → 结果 → 判断”这一条线记忆,不要把它只理解成文章最后一段。
  • 阅读时先看上下文是在说时间上的收尾、事情产生的结果,还是人的判断;这三类是最常见、最值得优先掌握的意思。
📖 中文释义
noun
  • core 结束;收尾
    📖 指某件事、某个阶段或某项活动的最后部分,也就是事情像合上门一样完成收尾。它强调结束这一时刻或阶段本身,而不一定强调结束后得到的结果。
    💡 常用“the conclusion of + 活动、阶段或事件”表示某事的结束,也可说“at the conclusion of + 名词”表示在结束时。这个意思比单纯的“最后一点”稍正式,常见于活动、比赛、报告或文章的语境。不要把它误当成只指文章的结论段落。
    countable uncountable
    At the conclusion of the meeting, everyone agreed to meet again next week.
    会议结束时,大家都同意下周再见面。
    The concert ended with a short speech at its conclusion.
    音乐会在最后以一段简短的讲话结束。
  • core 结果;后果
    📖 指一个过程、行动或事件最后产生的结果,是从前面的发展中收拢出来的东西。这里关注的是“发生了什么结果”,不一定是某个人主动作出的判断。
    💡 常用“the conclusion of + 过程或行动”或“draw a conclusion from + 证据”一类结构,具体结构要根据语境区分结果和判断。这个意思在说明实验、调查或事件发展时很有用。中文里的“结果”不总能直接替换成“结论”,尤其当上下文没有推理或判断时。
    countable uncountable
    The conclusion of the investigation surprised everyone.
    调查的结果让所有人都感到意外。
  • core 结论;决定
    📖 指一个人或团体仔细考虑事实后形成的判断或决定,是把各种线索收拢成一个明确看法。它通常可以由某人或某个机构作出,而不是自然发生的结果。
    💡 最常见的句型是“come to/reach the conclusion that + 从句”,也可用“draw a conclusion from + 证据”。说具体的一个判断时通常用可数形式并带限定词;表示一般性的结论概念时可以不用复数。不要常规地说“make a conclusion”,正式英语中通常选用上述动词搭配。
    countable uncountable
    After reviewing the evidence, the committee reached the conclusion that the plan was unsafe.
    委员会审查证据后得出结论,认为这项计划不安全。
  • rare 逻辑结论
    📖 在逻辑学中,指根据一个或多个前提必然推出的命题,也就是推理链条最后收拢出的判断。
    countable uncountable
  • rare 可据以推论的实验或事物
    📖 这是过时用法,指实验或其他可以据此得出结论的事物,可看作“产生结论的材料”。
    countable obsolete uncountable
  • rare 法律文书的结尾
    📖 在法律语境中,指诉状、起诉书等陈述的正式结尾,即文书收束的位置或措辞。
    countable uncountable
  • rare 法律上的禁止反悔
    📖 在法律语境中,指使某人必须受自己先前立场约束、不能再采取相反立场的法律效力。
    countable uncountable
  • rare 安排;和解
    📖 这是边缘用法,指把事情安排妥当或达成和解,也可看作把分歧收拢并处理完毕。
    countable uncountable

🌳 词源
经古法语和中古英语来自拉丁语,原义与“收拢、闭合”有关;现代英语中也可从 conclude 加后缀 -sion 来理解。
From Middle English, borrowed from Old French conclusion, from Latin conclūsiō, from the past participle stem of conclūdere (“to conclude”), from con- + claudō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *kleh₂u- (“key, hook, nail”). By surface analysis, conclude + -sion.
