1-aerospace 航空航天

2-engulf 陷入,严重影响

3-of its own making 自己造成的

For nearly a year, the world's largest aerospace company has been engulfed a scandal of its own making.

4-link to 与……有关

5-malfunction 故障

6-jetliner 喷气客机

7-unforgiving 难应付的,棘手的;记仇的

8-lens 镜头

The 737 crisis, which unfolded after 346 people died in two crashes linked to software malfunctions in Boeing's newest jetliner, has put the company under an unforgiving lens.

9-scrutiny 仔细检查,认真严格的审查

10-layoff 解雇

11-shatter 使(信念,希望等)破灭,粉碎

Scrutiny from journalists, crash investigators, regulators, Congress, and the department of justice has exposed profound flaws in Boeing's corporate culture-shaking its workforce, forcing supplier layoffs, and shattering fliers' trust.

12-dire 可怕的,迫切的

13-trajectory 轨道,轨迹

What's more, the Max scandal isn't the only dire threat to Boeing's trajectory.

14-plug 填,堵住

15-gaping 漏洞,缺口

Well before the crashes, Boeing had struggled to plug a gaping hole in its product lineup between its single-aisle 737 and larger twin-aisle planes.

16-shelve 搁置,停止

17-scramble 仓促去做(困难的事)

Now, plans to launch an entirely new, clean sheet jetliner for its midsize market has been shelved, as the company scrambles to get the Max back in the air.

18-industry insider 业内人士

19-spring from 由……引起

20-consistently 一贯地

These twin crises, industry insiders say, spring from a culture that consistently put short-term rewards to shareholders ahead of engineering-driven decisions and long-term strategy.

21-in the making 在生产(或形成)过程中,在孕育中

Boeing's culture problems aren't two or even ten years in the making.

22-ethos 精神理念,道德观

Aerospace experts trace them to 1997, when Boeing acquired rival Mcdonnel Douglas, absorbing many of that company's executives along with its finance-first ethos.
