Question

cessation n.终止；（短暂的）停止 (1) 轰炸持续不断地进行着。(2) 死亡只是全数梦想的停止。(3) 墨西哥要求立即停止敌对行动。(4) 智者既不会藐视生命，也不会惧怕死亡。(5) 停止工作的铃声一响，我们马上就走了。 Cessation and cease sound alike and have similar meanings because they both come from the Latin word cessare, which means "to delay, to stop." The cessation can be permanent, such as when the protests resulted in the cessation of the use of baby bunnies to test lipsticks (forever ending the bunny torture); or temporary, such as the cessation of the rain during the storm that let us run to the car without getting wet (but rain, like sunshine, always comes back).
