The nobility or the aristocracy are the group of people in some countries, especially in the past, who were born in the highest social class, below royalty. They have special titles such as Duke, Duchess, Count or Earl. They are usually rich and powerful, and often own land. In the past, the gentry were people with a high social class, just below the nobility in rank, who were usually rich and owned land, but did not always have special titles, and were usually powerful at a local level rather than at a national level. 在一些国家，the nobility或the aristocracy尤指旧时出身仅在皇族之下的贵族。这些人拥有诸如公爵、女公爵或伯爵等封号，通常有财有势，还常拥有土地。在过去，the gentry指社会地位仅次于贵族的上层人士，这些人通常很富有且拥有土地，但不一定有封号，在当地通常非常有权势，但其影响力未达全国范围。■ the ˌupper ˈclass [singular + singular or plural verb] (especially NAmE) ( the ˌupper ˈclasses [plural]) the group of people in a society that are considered to have the highest social status and that have more money and/or power than other people 上流社会；上等阶层◆They produced luxury furniture for the middle and upper classes.他们为中上等阶层生产豪华家具。ⓘ The upper class is sometimes used to refer just to the aristocracy, but is often used with a wider meaning, including the gentry and sometimes also business and professional people with enough money to buy the property, education and culture needed to enable them to mix socially with other members of the upper class. * the upper class有时专指贵族，但其含义常比较宽泛，涵盖绅士阶层，有时甚至包括那些有经济实力的商人和专业人士，他们购置房产、接受高等教育和文化熏陶，进而能融入到上流社会中◆Wealthy industrialists joined the upper class by virtue of their newly acquired spending power.富有的实业家凭借他们刚获得的高消费能力步入了上层社会。   see also class ⇨ class 4 , the middle class ⇨ middle class noun , the working class ⇨ general public , upper class ⇨ aristocratic
