It seems very unlikely that 级距 can refer to symbols — i.e. ( ) [ ] { } — as in the mathematical sense (#4 above). Examples of usage: 中美棉花分级标准异同分析 美国棉花长度是以1/32英寸（0.794mm）为级距，分为19个级。我国是按1mm为级距，划分了7个长度级。 又將電費級距從原本的4級擴大為5級， the government changed the original four-tier power pricing plan to a five-tier one; 最新捷徑則是增加保費級距、 The latest proposals include a more tiered [health insurance] premium system 超出的部分則把級距加大，也就是用越多，水費越貴； for that portion above the basic use range the fee brackets will increase, that is, the more water you use, the more expensive it will be; 觀察1999到2005年之間不同級距的所得增減，所得最低的第一級家庭，可支配所得呈現負成長的趨勢明顯， Looking at changes in income for the various strata from 1999 to 2005, there is a clear decline in the disposable income of the lowest group (Group 1), 不過，由於我國社會救助審核標準嚴格，部分處於「五等分位所得」級距最低層的人口，生計雖困苦，但因具備工作能力、資產、撫養親屬等要件，無法得到社會救助，而成為近貧者（near poor）。 However, because the criteria for approval for social assistance are quite strict in Taiwan, part of the population that falls into the lowest fifth of the country in terms of income is not, despite their difficult circumstances, eligible for assistance, because they are able to work, have assets, or have family support. These are the "near poor." |
