| 释义 | 〔when〕In informal stylewhen is often used after be in definitions: A dilemma is when you don't know which way to turn. The construction is useful,but it is widely regarded as incorrect or as unsuitable for formal discourse.In formal style there is no alternative but to rephrase such definitions to avoidis when : A dilemma is a situation in which you don't know which way to turn. You are in a dilemma when you don't know which way to turn. 在非正式文体中when 常在定义中用在 be 后面： 进退两难就是当你不知道该走哪条路的时候。 这个结构是有用的，但被广泛认为它对正式交谈来说是不正确的或者是不合适的。在正式文体中没有替代词，只能改变措辞以避免is when ： 进退两难就是这样一个你不知道该怎么办的处境。 当你不知道你该做什么时你就处于进退两难的维谷了 〔drop〕To pass or slip into a specified state or condition:落入特定状态或处境：〔check〕The position or condition of a king so attacked.将军：被将军的“国王”的位置或处境〔concern〕an article that concerns the plight of homeless people.关于无家可归者处境的文章〔jam〕A trying situation; a predicament.See Synonyms at predicament 窘境：困难的处境；困境 参见 predicament〔box〕In a very difficult or restrictive situation.处于困境：在一个非常困难或受限的处境〔alleged〕Analleged burglar is someone who has been accused of being a burglar but against whom no charges have been proved. Analleged incident is an event that is said to have taken place but has not yet been verified. In their zeal to protect the rights of the accused,newspapers and law enforcement officials sometimes misusealleged. A man arrested for murder may be only analleged murderer, for example, but he is a real, not analleged, suspect in that his status as a suspect is not in doubt. Similarly, if the money from a safe is known to have been stolen and not merely mislaid,then we may safely speak of a theft without having to qualify our description withalleged. 一个alleged（有嫌疑的） 强盗是指被指控为强盗但并未得到证实的人。 alleged（据称的） 的事件是一件据说发生过但还未被证实的事。 出于保护被指控者权力的热情，报界和执法官员有时误用alleged 这个词。 比如说，一个因谋杀而被捕的人，可能只是个alleged（有嫌疑的） 谋杀犯， 但当他是真正的而不是alleged（据称的） 嫌疑犯时，那么他身为嫌疑犯的处境就是毫无疑问的。 与此相似，如果放在保险箱里的钱已知是被人偷走而不仅仅是放错了，那么我们应该可以毫不犹豫地把它说成盗窃案而不用加alleged 这个词来限定我们的描述 〔judgment〕The capacity to assess situations or circumstances and draw sound conclusions; good sense:判断力，明智，见识：对处境或周围环境作出估计并且得出明智结论的能力；辨别是非的能力：〔pinch〕A painful, difficult, or straitened circumstance:困难，紧迫情况：痛苦、困难或紧迫的处境：〔bay〕The position of one cornered by pursuers and forced to turn and fight at close quarters:穷途末路；困兽之斗：被追捕者逼入困境而被迫转向和战斗，走投无路的处境：〔tightrope〕An extremely precarious course or situation.极其危险的道路或处境〔reference〕A mention of an occurrence or a situation:提及：提到发生的事件或处境：〔situation〕Position or status with regard to conditions and circumstances.情况，处境：与状况或情势有关的地位或位置〔pressure〕An oppressive condition of physical, mental, social, or economic distress.困扰：肉体上，精神上，社交上或经济上痛苦或不适而产生的有压力的处境〔fixed〕Supplied, especially with funds or needs.

Hudson). “邻居告诉我父亲，我们的处境极端危险” (W.H.哈得孙）。〔predicament〕 Jam andfix both refer to trying predicaments from which disengagement presents a problem: Jam 和fix 都是指从其脱离会产生问题的难受处境： 〔downer〕A depressing experience or predicament.沮丧的：令人沮丧的经历或处境〔deficit〕An unfavorable condition or position; a disadvantage:失利：不利的情形或处境；弊端：〔spiff〕"He may need more than spiff to get him through the bad patches ahead"(James Wolcott)“要度过前面的困难处境，他需要的不仅仅是魅力”(詹姆斯·沃尔科特)〔empathy〕Identification with and understanding of another's situation, feelings, and motives.See Synonyms at pity 移情作用：认同和理解别人的处境、感情和动机 参见 pity〔predicament〕These nouns all refer to a situation from which it is difficult to free oneself.Apredicament is a problematic situation about which one does not know what to do: 这些名词都表示难以摆脱的状况。Predicament 是指一种不知该怎么办的疑难处境： 〔hole〕An awkward situation; a predicament.进退两难的处境；困境〔barrel〕In a very awkward position from which extrication is difficult:困境：很难摆脱的艰难处境：〔high〕In a position of helplessness; stranded:孤独无助地：处于无援助的处境；无依无靠地：〔pity〕Empathy is a vicarious identification with and understanding of another's situation, feelings, and motives: Empathy 是一种对他人的处境、感情或动机的认同和理解： 〔pit〕A miserable or depressing place or situation.绝境：悲惨或可悲的处境或境遇〔cup〕A lot or portion to be suffered or enjoyed.际遇：必须忍受或享有的命运或处境〔predicament〕"Werner finds himself suddenly in a most awkward predicament" (Thomas Carlyle).Aplight is a bad or unfortunate situation: “华纳突然发现自己处于一种最为尴尬的境地” （托马斯·卡莱尔）。Plight 是指糟糕或不幸的处境： 〔pretty〕in a pretty predicament; a situation that has reached a pretty pass.处境极为尴尬；处理特别不妙的〔predicament〕The reporter wrote an article about the woeful plight of homeless people.
