[plɑːnt]n.工厂

Plant常用的意思是植物，其实它还有一个意思是工厂，就是Factory的那个工厂，比如：发电厂是power plant；污水净化厂是treatment plant；核能发电站是nuclear power plant；石油加工厂是processing plant。 我们来看2个例句： In addition to the new factory in Thailand, he said, the company is looking to open a plant in China, India or Brazil.他说，除了泰国的新工厂，公司还考虑在中国、印度或巴西新建一家工厂。 During his senior year, he took a break from school to work as a programmer at a power plant in southern Washington.大四时，他休学去华盛顿州南部的一个发电厂做了程序员。
