Question

quantify v.用数量表示；量化 (1) 这次水灾的损失是无可估量的。(2) 现在有一项新的研究对这一趋势进行了量化。(3) 把太空探索的价值进行量化是很困难的。 If you like math, this word is for you: quantifying is counting or expressing something in numbers. Oddly enough quantify often comes into play when people are trying to count things that can't really be counted. When a doctor asks you to rate your pain on a scale of 1 to 10, he's asking you to quantify for your pain. Michael Jordan won 6 NBA championships, but you can't quantify what made him great: his drive and determination.
