It may also be, however, that the term beautiful has no sense except as the expression of an attitude, which is in turn attached by different people to quite different states of affairs. 不过，也可能是另一种情况。美丽这个术语，除了表达一种态度以外，没什么其他意义。于是，不同的人把这个术语加在了许许多多不同事物上。 6. Such a poor state could not possibly have waged war against its neighbour without the backing from other countries. 这样一个穷国如果没有其他国家支持是根本不可能对他的邻国发动战争的。
