今天我们要学的词是 sporadic.
sporadic 的意思是零星的，偶尔发生的。Libya descended into chaos after the overthrow of leader Moammar Gadhafi in 2011. Since then, thousands of people have been killed in sporadic fighting between factions in the east and west. 利比亚在其领导人卡扎菲2011年被推翻之后陷入混乱。之后有数千人在东部和西部各派系之间的零星冲突中丧生。
Iran’s official news agency reported sporadic protests erupted in cities across the country one day after the government announced a surprise decision to ration gasoline and lift its price. 伊朗官方通讯社报道，政府出人意料地宣布了对汽油进行定量供应并提高油价的决定，一天后伊朗各地爆发了零星抗议活动。
