Question

parenthesis n.圆括号；插入语 (1) 统计数字在括号里。(2) 每当遇上一个括号，就叫人不得不从一种想法下马，然后再次骑上马鞍。(3) 注意这里的名字后面都没有圆括号。(4) 一个常见的语法错误是省略插入语。(5) 在这里我想附带再提一下另外一点。 Parenthesis marks come in pairs: the plural is spelled “parentheses.” Parentheses look like this: ( ). When you use parentheses to set off material in a sentence, you say that the material is “in parenthesis.” Put something in parentheses if it's a comment, an afterthought, or additional information that is possibly interesting but not essential to the subject. You can also describe something as a parenthesis, like a digressive story about horses in the middle of a political speech.
