Ellipsis
Ⅰ, In compound sentences
?电压的单位是伏特，电流的是安培。
Voltage is measured in volts and current in amperes.
?地球吸引月球，月球也吸引地球
The earth attracts the moon and the moon the earth.
?A great many kinds of transistors exist,and many
versions of each kind.
?电子被注入 P区，而空穴被注入 N区。
Electrons are injected into the P region,and holes into
the N region.
? In the table,a notation(标记 ) of infinite impedance
indicates that the terminating impedance should be a
minimum of 10 to 100 times the nominal(额定 )
impedance at the specific port,and zero that it should
be well less than a tenth the nominal impedance at the
port and less than a hundredth if possible.
