基本英英词源例句例句
n.罗马神话中谷类女神;谷神星¹⁰⁰原型cere的三单
Noun:
Roman mythology goddess of agriculture; counterpart of Greek Demeterthe largest asteroid and the first discovered希腊神话中，德墨忒尔Demeter是神王宙斯的姐姐和第四个妻子，掌管农业、谷物和丰产，被称为谷物女神。在罗马神话中，她被叫做刻瑞斯Ceres。
据说冥王普鲁托看上了刻瑞斯的爱女科瑞Core，即希腊神话中的珀尔塞福涅，把她劫到了冥府当了冥后。刻瑞斯四处寻找女儿，不问农事，导致庄稼死亡，饥馑遍地。人们再也没有祭品来供奉神灵。没办法，天神朱庇特命令冥王释放科瑞。冥王不敢违命，但又不甘心，就在科瑞离开之际，偷偷让她吃下石榴籽，使得她无法断绝与冥府的联系。因此，科瑞每年有8个月时间在人间陪伴母亲，4个月时间重返冥府陪伴冥王。在有女儿陪伴的时期，谷物女神心情愉快，世间万物蓬勃生长；而在女儿离开的4个月中，谷物女神心情低落，万物枯竭，这就是人间的冬天。就这样，人间出现枯荣轮回，人类也不能再像黄金时代那样不劳而获，坐等庄稼自己长出来，而是需要去播种耕耘。
英语单词cereal就来自谷物女神的拉丁名字Ceres，表示“谷物”。化学元素铈cerium也是以谷物女神的名字命名的。
cereal：'sɪərɪəl n.谷物，谷类植物，谷类食物，麦片adj.谷物的，谷类的
cerium：'sɪərɪəm n.化学元素铈用作名词Diodorus Siculus recorded that the Atlanteans did not know the fruits ofCeres.狄奥多罗斯叙述亚特兰蒂斯人并不知道谷类女神的果实。
Under the newly proposed criteria,Cereswould qualify as a planet because it is nearly spherical and sufficiently distant from other planets.在最新提议的标准下，谷神星将被命名为一颗行星，原因是它的形状近似球形，并且与其它行星距离遥远。 It was only in 1801 with the discovery of Ceres, the largest of the asteroids, that this gap was neatly plugged.
