[ 2006-03-28 11:37 ]
3月27日，國(guó)家版權(quán)局、海關(guān)總署等有關(guān)部門就聯(lián)合加強(qiáng)知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)行政執(zhí)法等問(wèn)題舉行了發(fā)布會(huì)。國(guó)家版權(quán)局副局長(zhǎng)閻曉宏說(shuō)，打擊知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)犯罪不可能一蹴而就，但政府的諸多努力和措施已頗見成效，知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)保護(hù)正穩(wěn)步取得進(jìn)展。
請(qǐng)看《中國(guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》的相關(guān)報(bào)道：Intellectual property right (IPR) violations cannot be eliminated overnight but China will speed up the process, a top copyright official pledged yesterday in Beijing. The government has been resolute, andmade headway, in cracking down on infringements and piracy of laser discs and software, said Yan Xiaohong, deputy chief of the National Copyright Administration of China.
報(bào)道中的make headway是個(gè)固定搭配，指“取得進(jìn)展”，其近義詞組如：make progress，make an improvement，get ahead。
Headway原屬于航海詞匯，指“前后兩船之間的距離”，后引申為輪船或火車的運(yùn)行速度。舉兩個(gè)例子：The headway between each bus is fixed at three minutes.（每?jī)砂喙财囍g的時(shí)距定為3分鐘。）；Little headway has been made in educational reform.（教育改革幾乎沒(méi)有進(jìn)展。）
