Q: standing

A: 1) Based on this page:<br /> “standing” means being upright on its feet in one place (not sitting or lying down). Here it describes the tabby cat upright on the corner of Privet Drive.

2) General knowledge (not from this page):<br /> “standing” can also mean having a particular status or reputation (e.g., “in good standing”), but that is not the meaning in this passage.

1）基于本页内容：<br /> “standing” 的意思是“站着、直立地待在原地”（不是坐着或躺着）。这里用来描述那只虎斑猫直立地站在女贞路的街角。

2）常识补充（非本页内容）：<br /> “standing” 也可以表示“地位/声望/名誉”（例如 “in good standing”），但这不是本段文字里的用法。
