The excessive number of meetings left the team little time for project work. → Too many meetings left the team little time for project work.
此處 excessive number 表示次數超過合理程度，too many 保留會議過多及其影響。
The supervisor displayed excessive anger during the briefing, shouting and pounding the table. → The supervisor displayed more anger than was appropriate during the briefing, shouting and pounding the table.
excessive anger 表示憤怒程度超過合理限度；改寫保留過度憤怒、吼叫與拍桌，不將 excessive 等同於失去約束。
