Question

telescope n.望远镜v.缩短；压缩；套叠 (1) 他通过望远镜看到了一头四处觅食的饿狼。(2) 这架望远镜的有效距离多大?(3) 他太穷了，买不起天文望远镜。(4) 我建议将研讨会缩短为一个小时。(5) 把二百年的历史浓缩在一个讲座中很是困难。(6) 你可以把这个架子折叠一下以便它可以放进狭小的空间里。 Galileo is often credited with the invention of the telescope, but this is incorrect. Although he did not invent it, he did improve it — a lot. He didn't name the telescope either. That honor went to Greek mathematician Giovanni Demisiani, who gave the instrument its name when Galileo presented the instrument at the Accademia dei Lincei, a science society in Italy, in 1611. Telescope is from the Greek roots tele (meaning "far") and skopos (meaning "seeing"); so the word literally describes what the instrument does.
