Question

spherical adj.球的；球面的；球状的 (1) 球形的和规则的球晶形成相对来说很稀少。(2) 这油灯需配个新的圆灯罩。(3) 地球是一个近似球体的行星。(4) 天然泥沙颗粒不是球状的。 The ball image is a good one since the word sphere comes from very similar-sounding Greek and Latin words, both of which mean "ball." The word sphere, however, has much broader usage: we use it in to discussing astronomy, our earth, even our social rank (as in "one's sphere of influence"). Spherical, by contrast, has a much more limited use. It basically is a description of shape: if it's spherical, it simply looks like a ball.
