Coincide Happen Views Coinciding Theory Biological British V Recip

英语单词 coincide
英美音标 [kəuin'said]
中文释义 vi.一致,符合
vocab简明 When things happen at the same time, they are said to coincide. Often, this is because they're intentionally coordinated––"the bake sale coincided with Parent Day"––but not always.
vocab扩展 Coincide can also mean happen together in other ways. "My mother's views on appropriate teen fashion do not always coincide with mine" is an über tactful way to say she hates your clothes. You could also describe two roads coming together as coinciding––though it's more poetic to talk about when they diverge.
真题原句 Coinciding with the groundbreaking theory of biological evolution proposed by British naturalist Charles Darwin in the 1860s, British social philosopher Herbert Spencer put forward his own theory of biological and cultural evolution.
