See also: back, long, wayCambridge International Dictionary of Idioms ? Cambridge University Press 1998to know someone for a long time. 817. aviatophobia = aviophobia Fear of flying is a fear of being on a plane while in flight. It is also sometimes referred to as aviatophobia or aviophobia. OverviewFear of flying may be a distinct phobia in itself, or it may be an indirect manifestation of one or more other phobias, such as claustrophobia (a fear of enclosed spaces) or acrophobia (a fear of heights). It may have other causes as well. It is a symptom rather than a disease, and different causes may bring it about in different individuals. Fear of flying receives more attention than most other phobias because air travel is often difficult for people to avoid―especially in professional contexts―and because the fear is widespread, affecting a significant minority of the population. A fear of flying may prevent a person from going on vacations or visiting family and friends, and it can cripple the career of a businessperson by preventing him from travelling as part of his job. Despite its ubiquity, commercial air travel continues to cause a significant proportion of the public to feel anxiety. When this anxiety reaches a level that significantly interferes with a person's ability to travel by air, it becomes a fear of flying.818. bale out/bail outVarious meanings, including 'making an emergency parachute escape from an aeroplane' and 'ladling water from a boat'. The pilot who has to bail out hurriedly from a crippled or burning planeIf you bale out and land in water... a smart rap will release the whole lot and you can swim free.819. antioxidant抗氧化剂; 硬化防止剂1. A chemical compound or substance that inhibits oxidation.2. A substance, such as vitamin E, vitamin C, or beta carotene, thought to protect body cells from the damaging effects of oxidation.820. Wingsuit flyWingsuit flying is the art of flying the human body through the air using a special jumpsuit, called a wingsuit, that shapes the human body into an airfoil which can create lift. The wingsuit creates the airfoil shape with fabric sewn between the legs and under the arms. It is also called a birdman suit. A wingsuit can be flown from any point that provides sufficient altitude to glide through the air, such as skydiving aircraft or BASE jumping exit points. The wingsuit flier wears parachute equipment designed for skydiving or BASE jumping. The flier will deploy the parachute at a planned altitude and unzip the arm wings so they can reach up to the parachute control toggles and fly to a normal skydiving or BASE jumping landing.821. ayahuasca从南美卡披木树根提取的一种致幻药Ayahuasca (Quechua, pronounced [a.ja.?wa.ska]) is any of various psychoactive infusions or decoctions prepared from the Banisteriopsis spp. vine, native to the Amazon Rainforest (which is also called ayahuasca). The resulting drinks are pharmacologically complex and used for shamanic, folk-medicinal, and religious purposes.822. Minamata diseaseDisease first identified in 1956 in Minamata, Japan. A fishing port, Minamata was also the home of Nippon Chisso Hiryo Co., a manufacturer of chemical fertilizer, carbide, and vinyl chloride. Methyl mercury discharged from the factory contaminated fish and shellfish, which in turn caused illness in the local inhabitants who consumed them and birth defects in their children. The sometimes fatal disease was the first whose cause was recognized as industrial pollution of seawater. It aroused worldwide concern and stimulated the development of the environmental movement. 1956年在日本熊本县水俣(yu3)湾附近渔村中首次发现。其病状为神经失常,四肢麻木,语言障碍等。对胎儿或婴儿发育的损伤比较严重。其原因是附近化工厂排出污水中的有机汞为鱼、贝类摄入并在体内富集,致使食用此类鱼贝者发生中枢神经疾病。预防措施为不向环境排放汞及其化合物。823.
