Word of the Day
這個單元停擺到我都害羞它再次的出現了
所以特別挑了這個單字,大家的心願阿
sinecure \SY-nih-kyur; SIN-ih-\, noun:
An office or position that requires or involves little or no responsibility, work, or active service. (閒差)
就是一個錢多事少離家近,位高權重責任輕的"閒差"...
這個重要的單字,請大家牢記了....^^

I was fortunate to receive the. . . offer, which in
practical terms was a sinecure.
--David Freeman, [1]One of Us
Julian Poe, a wealthy old Estonian, offers what looks like
a sinecure: Bennett will live in comfort in Monte Carlo and
pretend to be Poe, thus enabling Poe to fulfill his
residency requirement in Monte Carlo while continuing to
live in Provence without paying French taxes.
--"Eat, Drink and Be Wary," [2]New York Times, June 9, 1996
When they married, Pu Yi was, officially, employed as a
gardener at the Peking Botanical Gardens. In fact this
sinecure... only lasted three years, during which time he
did very little actual gardening.
