issue141 conformity 怎么理解？

scamperingUID: 2165749

141"Most people recognize the benefits of individuality, but the fact is that personal economic success requires conformity."

究竟是指 遵守法律，伦理等，还是说要和一般的人一样，因循守旧呢？？    请教，糊涂了：（

Main Entry:conformity
Pronunciation:k*n-*f*r-m*-t*
Function:noun
Inflected Form:plural -ties
Date:15th century

1 : correspondence in form, manner, or character : AGREEMENT *behaved in conformity with her beliefs*
2 : an act or instance of conforming
3 : action in accordance with some specified standard or authority *conformity to social custom*

不明白的词就查W-M,多条意思带到题目里面分析
和前面individuality对应的是遵守,和他人一致的意思

不要看中文翻译,很多翻译都是网站上相互抄来的,一错百错
可以自己翻译题目,印象更深刻,出错的可能性也少一些
