2. 体会这个词 （进阶篇）
“tangible”是形容词，根据它的英英释义我们可以知道它的意思是“真实的”“可触摸的”，常常可以用来替换 real，actual 等词。它的实际用法比词典中的解释更加灵活，比如当我们想表示“实实在在的利益”“确凿的证据”时，都可以用到 tangible，这也是外刊中常见的用法。我们通过几个例子掌握它的用法。
比如你换了份新工作，这份工作可以让你享有实实在在的好处：
His new job comes with tangible benefits, including an increase in salary and a cut in working hours.
我们常说的“实锤”“实实在在的证据”，就可以说成 tangible evidence/proof，比如如果我们要采取法律行动，就需要有实实在在的证据：
We need tangible evidence if we're going to take legal action.
再比如一个应用程序经过优化，产生了显著的效果，就可以用到 tangible results：
The optimized algorithm has produced tangible results, enabling the customer service department to serve more clients at the same time.
《经济学人》中也经常用到 tangible，比如：
1）The generals' absence may therefore have less tangible effect than many fear.
2）But it would go a long way toward rebuilding trust in the ability of liberal democracy to deliver tangible benefits for ordinary citizens.
3）Logging, mining and other resource-development activities offer the prospect of tangible economic benefits; conservation does not.
3. 从认识到会用（作业）
1）翻译下面的句子： 这项政策还没有为穷人带来任何实质性的好处。
（参考翻译：The policy has not yet brought any tangible benefits to the poor.）
2）结合自己的生活、学习、工作、兴趣等，想象在什么语境下会用到这个表达。先简要描述这个场景，再造句。
As trust in village-head incumbent wanes, there is higher expectation for the incoming village-chief to offer something tangible, not the say-so of sb/those in authority; and the new team
of leadership will be under great pressure to turn their newfound momentum into tangible contributions.
