短释义
If you look carefully at the word pandemonium, you’ll see the word demon inside it. This makes sense, since the word pandemonium was coined in Milton’s Paradise Lost, where it was the name of the palace built in the middle of Hell. Milton wrote back in the 17th century. Nowadays, pandemonium crops up whenever journalists are describing a chaotic scene. High school students have been heard to use it to describe their lunchroom.
混乱是混乱、彻底、彻底的疯狂——就像你的球队赢得冠军后的踩踏事件,每个人都立刻涌到球场上,互相弹跳。

如果你仔细看“混乱”这个词,你会看到里面有“恶魔”这个词。这是有道理的,因为“混乱”这个词是在弥尔顿的《失乐园》中创造的,它是建造在地狱中央的宫殿的名称。弥尔顿在 17 世纪就曾写道。如今,每当记者描述混乱的场景时,就会出现混乱。有人听说高中生用它来形容他们的午餐室。
