表示“好”的英语前缀：bene
导语：英语单词里面，尤其是前缀部分如果出现bene的时候，一般表示“好，善”，下面跟着小编一起学习一下吧！
例如：benefit利益，benevolence善行，benefactor捐助者，beneficiary受益人，benediction祈福。
①benediction
A prayer that asks for God's blessing, especially a prayer that concludes a worship service.
The moment the bishop had finished his benediction, she squeezed quickly out of her row and darted out the cathedral's side entrance.
In benediction, the bene root is joined by another Latin root, dictio, “speaking” (see DICT), so the word's meaning becomes something like “well-wishing.” Perhaps the best-known benediction is the so-called Aaronic Benediction from the Bible, which begins, “May the Lord bless you and keep you.” An important section of the Catholic Mass was traditionally known as the Benedictus, after its first word (meaning “blessed”). It was St. Benedict who organized the first Christian monasteries; many Christians have been baptized Benedict in his honor, and 16 popes have taken it as their papal name.
和词根bene搭配的词根dict表示“说”，例如dictate命令，dictator***，predict预言，dictionary词典，contradict矛盾。bene+dict+ion=把“好”说出来=祈福。
②benefactor
Someone who helps another person or group, especially by giving money.
An anonymous benefactor had given $15 million to establish an ecological institute at the university.
A benefactor may be involved in almost any field. One may endow a scholarship fund; another may give money to expand a library; still another may leave a generous sum to a hospital in her will. The famous benefactions of John D. Rockefeller included the gifts that established the University of Chicago, the Rockefeller Foundation, and Rockefeller University. Many benefactors have reported that giving away their money turned out to be the most rewarding thing they ever did.
benefactor捐助者，施主，可以是捐钱成立助学基金的人，也可以是出钱建图书馆、建教堂的`人， 1890年由石油大王约翰洛克菲勒投资/捐款创办的芝加哥大学（The University of Chicago），简称芝大，是一所位于美国伊利诺伊州芝加哥的私立、男女同校、无宗教派别的研究型大学，在1892年10月1日正式开课。芝加哥大学是美国最富盛名的大学之一，共有89位获得诺贝尔奖得主在此工作或学习，为世界之最。
③beneficiary
A person or organization that benefits or is expected to benefit from something, especially one that receives money or property when someone dies.
Living in a trailer in near-poverty, she received word in the mail that her father had died, naming her as the sole beneficiary of his life-insurance policy.
Beneficiary is often used in connection with life insurance, but it shows up in many other contexts as well. A college may be the beneficiary of a private donation. Your uncle's will may make a church his sole beneficiary, in which case all his money and property will go to it when he dies. A “third-party beneficiary” of a contract is a person (often a child) who the people signing the contract (which is usually an insurance policy or an employee-benefit plan) want to benefit from it. In a more general way, a small business may be a beneficiary of changes to the tax code, or a restaurant may be the beneficiary when the one across the street closes down and its whole lunch crowd starts coming in.
我们可以看出，beneficiary和benefactor是相对应的，也就是benefactor捐钱最终是给到beneficiary手里的。
④benevolence
Kindness, generosity.
In those financially desperate years, the young couple was saved only by the benevolence of her elderly great-uncle.
Part of benevolence comes from the Latin root meaning “wish.” The novels of Charles Dickens often include a benevolent figure who rescues the main characters at some point—Mr. Brownlow in Oliver Twist, Abel Magwitch in David Copperfield, Mr. Jarndyce in Bleak House, Ebenezer Scrooge in A Christmas Carol. To be benevolent, it helps to have money, but it's not necessary; kind assistance of a nonfinancial sort may turn out to be lifesaving benevolence as well.
