The laws are put into effect by the executive, which is a separate group of people and not part of the congress. In a parliamentary system the parliament is the legislature, and the executive is made up of a smaller group of people from within the parliament. * congress与parliament稍有不同,因为congress仅为立法机构(legislature),法律由congress以外的独立行政部门(the executive)实施。在议会制(parliamentary system)的国家,parliament是立法机构,行政部门由parliament内部的一小部分人组成。■senate (usually通常作the Senate) [countable + singular or plural verb, usually singular] one of the two groups of people who are elected to make laws in some countries, for example in the US, France and Australia参议院(美国、法国、澳大利亚等国的两个立法机构之一)◆The bill was passed by the Senate last month.该议案上个月在参议院通过了。ⓘ The Senate is the smaller of the two groups that make up a parliament or congress in some countries, but higher in rank. Many state parliaments in the US also have a Senate.在某些国家,Senate(参议院)是组成parliament或congress的两个机构之一,人数较少但是地位较高。美国许多州议会也设有参议院。■house ( House) [countable + singular or plural verb] a group of people who make the laws of a country, usually one of two groups which make up the parliament of the country议院(通常为议会的两院之一)◆Legislation requires approval by both houses of parliament.立法须得到议会两院的一致通过。■chamber ˈtʃeɪmbə(r) [countable + singular or plural verb] a group of people who make the laws of a country, usually one of two groups which make up the parliament of the country议院(通常为议会的两院之一)◆They are seeking to overturn the Liberal majority in the second chamber(= the upper part of the parliament).他们正设法改变自由党在上议院占多数席位的现状。■legislature ˈledʒɪsleɪtʃə(r) [countable + singular or plural verb, usually singular] (formal) a group of people who make the laws of a country立法机关◆She is the youngest woman to be elected to the national legislature.她是入选国家立法机关最年轻的女性。ⓘ The legislature is the part of a country's government that makes laws.
