Picture a line drawn to mark how far something may go — a speed, a budget, a weight — and something going past it. Exceed always needs that line to exist first; the word is about the crossing, not about being big. When the line marks how much power someone has been given rather than how much of something is allowed, crossing it is the same act.

可以想成:有一條線標著「最多到這裡」——速限、預算、重量——而某樣東西越過了那條線。exceed 一定要先有那條線才更多收起可以想成:有一條線標著「最多到這裡」——速限、預算、重量——而某樣東西越過了那條線。exceed 一定要先有那條線才成立;它講的是「越過去」,不是「很大」。而當那條線標的不是數量,而是某人被授予的權力範圍時,越過去也是同一個動作。
