boast
英英释义：(of a person, place, or thing) possess ( a feature that is a source of pride)
例句：Phenomenal English boasts arguably the most driven English learners.
arguably : as can be shown by argument. used when giving your opinion to say that there are good reasons why something might be true. (probably, maybe, possibly, most likely)
" boast" 是“拥有、有”， 只不过这里有一种自豪的意味，可以翻译为“ 以。。。引以为傲”。它是及物动词，后面可以直接接宾语（boast还有一个意思是“自夸”，做这个意思，后面一般要加“ about / of”）
这个词给我们的启发是，学英语有时要避免简单地逐字翻译，不要过于依赖英汉、汉英词典，比如在汉英字典中查“有” 是不太可能查到boast，但boast在一些语境中可以表示“有”，而且比常见的have更准确。
比如：Peking and Tsinghua University boast the most talented students and best faculty members in China. 北大和清华有全国最聪明的学生和最强的师资。
又比如：Shenzhen boasts a large number of fast growing technology companies. 深圳汇集了大量高速增长的科技公司。
再比如：Japan boasts the most Nobel laureates in Asia. 日本的诺贝尔获奖者人数居亚洲第一。
《经济学人》中两个使用了boast的句子，在介绍Instagram的用户数时， 是这样写的：
～The photo-sharing app has grown snappily and now boasts 1bn monthly users.
Snappily : quickly made or done. (quickly)
在写旧金山的垃圾回收率时，是这样写的：
～ San Francisco boasts a recycling rate of 80%, one of the highest of any rich-world city. (这里的boast可以翻译为：“高达”）
1）翻译
