Question

repository n.容器；仓库；贮藏室；智囊 (1) 我在日记中记载著我的一切希望和计划。(2) 图书馆是治疗精神之病院。(3) 那是我们无与伦比的传统智慧宝库。(4) 库是我们的正式的档案。(5) 我父亲有说不完的趣事。 The noun repository has a somewhat formal ring to it — why not just call a storehouse a storehouse, right? Think of a repository as somewhat more important and imposing than just a place to dump stuff. It has more of an air of authority, like the things stored there could change the world. Consider nuclear waste — would you rather store it in a dump or a repository? I don’t know about you, but I'd prefer the latter—sounds safer.
