Question

precinct n.选区；范围；管辖区域 (1) 医院范围内禁止停放车辆。(2) 在上课期间内不要离开学校。(3) 纽顿文化院是约翰内斯堡艺术文化景观的中心。 The word precinct comes from the Latin precinctum meaning "enclosure, boundary line." A precinct is an area that has a clear boundary line around it, making it easier for the police to know where a crime is taking place, or where you should go to vote. The word precinct has also come to mean police headquarters in a particular district. If you're being held at the precinct, you're at the police station local to where you committed your crime.
