每日一词学英语(108): accolade

今天Google用图标纪念汉斯·克里斯蒂安·奥斯特(Hans Christian Ørsted)232岁生日。So who was Ørsted, and what did he do to deserve the Internet's ultimate accolade? (From National Geographic News, August 14, 2009: Hans Christian Orsted: Who He Was, and Why You Owe Him)

他是谁?有何功勋得获因特网最高殊荣?他是丹麦物理学家、化学家,电流磁效应的发现者。

Noun (formal) praise or an award for an achievement that people admire。
