1.8 hypothesis

1. 在科学领域,hypothesis(假设,假说)既不是wild guess,也不是well-established theory,而是an idea or explanation that you then test through study and experimentation,所以只有经过大量的research,科学家方能prove/confirm a hypothesis(证实一个假说)

2. 在非科学领域,如果 somebody has a hypothesis about sth=somebody makes a guess about sth,比如:由于缺乏证据,警方只能have a hypothesis about the crime

3. hypothesis的形容词是hypothetical(假定的),比如:The question is purely hypothetical(这个问题纯属假设)
