词源记忆法
英语单词jeopardy来自法语，原本是一个游戏术语，表示比赛、游戏时双方势均力敌、胜负难分。该单词的拼写中，jeo表示“比赛”（game），与joke同源；pard表示“部分”（part），因此该词的字面意思就是比赛双方各据一方，势均力敌。由于双方都有或输掉比赛，因此jeopardy一词逐渐衍生出“潜在的危险、风险”的含义。

小知识
To be in jeopardy is to be in danger. Eating three plates of nachos a day may improve your chances of winning your office's nacho-eating contest; unfortunately, it could also put your health in jeopardy.
Jeopardy is a state of being, so this word is almost always preceded by the preposition “in.” The phrase “in jeopardy” is just one of several ways to convey that someone is in trouble. You can also try “at risk,” “in danger,” or — if you're into idioms — “on thin ice,” “out on a limb,” or “up the creek without a paddle.”
