下面这句话中表示“核对”为什么用“verifying”而不用“checking”?
Whatever it consists of, stamps, records, first editions of books china, glass,
不管收藏品是什么,邮票、唱片、头版书籍、瓷器、玻璃杯、
antique furniture, pictures, model cars, stuffed birds, toy animals,
老式家具、绘画、模型汽车、鸟类标本,还是玩具动物,
there is always something to do in connection with it, from finding the right place for the latest addition, to verifying facts in reference books.
从为新增添的收藏品寻找摆放位置到核对参考书中的事实,总归有事可做。
