今天我們要學的詞是 clarion.

Clarion 是指中世紀時期的一種銅號，因在戰(zhàn)場上使用而引申為號角的意思。 Clarion常與call連用，意思是號召： Nobel laureates and experts, in a clarion call on Sunday, urged governments to promote active aging to ease the burden on social security systems. 諾貝爾獎得主和專家們星期日發(fā)出號召，呼吁政府推動積極老齡化，以減輕社會保障體系的負擔。

A clarion call by China's legislature to implement a property tax scared investors into dumping real estate developers' stocks, even if the legal basis for the tax is at least five years away. 中國立法機構發(fā)聲要落實財產稅后，即使稅法至少需要五年確立法律基礎，投資者們仍出于擔心而拋售房地產開發(fā)商的股票。
