今天我們要學(xué)的詞是 demise.
demise 的意思是消亡、終結(jié)。

Among the main victims of the terrorist militant group ISIS, residents in Syria and Iraq felt relief at the demise of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi who presided over the self-styled “caliphate.” 作為恐怖主義激進(jìn)組織伊斯蘭國(guó)的主要受害者,敘利亞和伊拉克民眾對(duì)曾領(lǐng)導(dǎo)那個(gè)自稱為“哈里發(fā)”的巴格達(dá)迪的暴斃感到欣慰 。
