exploiting(动词 exploit 的现在分词/动名词):

By exploiting the gap between what people believe and what the data show, the campaign shaped public opinion without offering real evidence. 该宣传活动利用人们的信念与数据呈现之间的落差,在缺乏真实证据的情况下塑造了公众舆论。
exploit 源自中古法语 exploiter(“使用、开发、使产生收益”),进一步可追溯到拉丁语词根 explicare(“展开、理清、使明白”)。词义从“把事物展开并加以运用”逐渐引申为“开发利用”,在社会与经济语境中又发展出“对人进行剥削”的含义。
