| 释义 | 〔choice〕"An unhappy alternative is before you, Elizabeth. . . . Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins, and I will never see you again if you do ” (Jane Austen). “伊丽莎白，你面前摆着只有两种令人不快的选择。…如果你不 嫁给柯林斯先生，你母亲会再也不愿见到你，而如果你 要 嫁给他，我会再也不愿见到你” （简·奥斯丁）。〔anxious〕Anxious has a long history of use roughly as a synonym for eager, but many would prefer that the distinction between the two words be maintained and thatanxious be used only when its subject is worried or uneasy about the anticipated event. In the traditional view, one may sayWe are anxious to see the strike settled soon but notWe are anxious to see the new show of British sculpture at the museum. Fifty-two percent of the Usage Panel rejectsanxious in the latter sentence. But general adoption ofanxious to mean "eager" is understandable, at least in colloquial discourse,since it provides a means of adding emotional urgency to an assertion,in its implication that the subject's desire for a certain outcome is so strong that frustration of that desire will lead to unhappiness.Note, in this connection, the analogous use of sentences such asI'm dying to see your new baby in informal style. Anxious 在很长一段时间以来，一直大致作为 eager 的同义词来用， 但很多人喜欢保留这两个词之间的区别，即只有当主体对预测事件忧虑不安时才用anxious 。 在传统观点看来，可以说我们渴望看到罢工问题很快解决 ， 但不能说我们渴望在博物馆里见到新的英国雕塑展览。 52%的用法使用小组成员反对anxious 在后一个句子中的用法。 但通常用anxious 来表示"eager"是可以理解的， 至少在口语中是这样，既然它加强了某一主张在感情上的迫切性，它隐喻的一层意思就是，主体对某一特定结果的愿望是如此强烈，以至于这种欲望受挫就会导致不愉快。注意与此有关的类似句子如我很渴望见到你们新出生的孩子 也是非正式的 〔testify〕testified in court that he saw the defendant.在法庭作证说他见到了被告〔sight〕One whom it is a relief or joy to see.乐于见到的人或物〔expect〕I hope to see you soon.我希望不久就见到你。〔like〕I've never seen the likes of this before. We'll never see his like again.我从没见过这样的事。我们将不会再见到他这类人物〔coyote〕A small, wolflike carnivorous animal(Canis latrans) native to western North America and found in many other regions of the continent. Also called prairie wolf 丛林狼：一种产于北美西部的外表象狼，体形较小的食肉动物（犬属 山狗） ，但在北美大陆的许多其他地区都可以见到 也作 prairie wolf〔forward〕looking forward to seeing you.期望将来见到你〔scattershot〕"his habit of scattershot comment on whatever issue catches his eye"(Howell Raines)“他对见到的问题作任意评价的习惯”(豪厄尔·雷恩斯)〔Orton〕British playwright noted for his black comedies, includingEntertaining Mr. Sloane (1964) and What the Butler Saw (1969). 奥顿，乔：(1933-1967) 英国剧作家，因其黑色喜剧而闻名，作品包括《款待斯隆先生》 （1964年）和 《管家所见到的》 （1969年） 〔so〕I stayed so I could see you.我留下来以便能见到你〔gorilla〕Two traditions of exploration come together in the history of the wordgorilla, which also illustrates how knowledge of the classics has influenced scientific terminology.Dr. Thomas S. Savage, an American missionary to western Africa,first described the gorilla in 1847, giving it the New Latin nameTroglodytes gorilla. In doing so he was using his knowledge of Greek literature,in which there exists a fourth-centuryb.c. translation of a report written by Hanno, another visitor to western Africa. This Carthaginian navigator,who voyaged before 480b.c. , went as far as Sierra Leone in his explorations.In the Greek translation of his reporthe tells of seeingGorillai, the name of which he allegedly learned from local informantsand which he thought were members of a tribe of hairy women.In fact they were probably the same creatures that Thomas Savage described about 24 centuries later.在涉及到gorilla 这个词的历史时，传说中的两次探险可以联系在一起， 这同样也证明了古典文学对科学术语命名的影响。汤姆斯·S·萨维奇医生，到西非传教的美国传教士，在1847年第一次描述了大猩猩并给它起了个新拉丁语名字Troglodytes gorilla 。 在命名时他就用了希腊文学知识，这个命名也同样出现在一本公元前 4世纪安诺写的见闻译本里，安诺也到过西非。 这位迦太基航海家，公元前 480年之前开始出航， 在他的探险过程中，最远到达过塞拉利昂。在他写见闻的希腊译本里，他说他见到了Gorillai ， 据他自己声称他是从当地向导那儿学到这个名字的，并认为它是指多毛女人部落的成员。实际上他们可能是大约24世纪以后汤姆斯·萨奇所描述的同样的动物〔year〕it's been years since we saw her.我们已经有好几年没有见到她了〔behold〕To perceive by the visual faculty; see:见到：通过视觉器官觉察；看见：〔shy〕These adjectives mean not forward but marked by a retiring nature, reticence, or a reserve of manner.One who isshy draws back from others, either because of a withdrawn nature or out of timidity: 这些形容词的意思是不向前的，但带有一种孤独的本性、缄默或沉默寡言的举止特征。Shy 的人见到别人退缩， 或者是出于畏惧的本性或者是出于腼腆： 〔glad〕was glad he had seen her.非常高兴他已经见到她了；〔monarch〕"I am monarch of all I survey"(William Cowper)“我是我所见到的一切的君主”(威廉·柯珀)〔bristle〕The cat bristled at the sight of the large dog.一见到那只大狗，猫身上的毛都竖起来了〔after〕I saw them after I arrived.在我抵达之后，我见到了他们〔cat〕"catting around with every lady in sight"(Gore Vidal)“跟见到的每个女人勾搭”(戈尔·维达尔)〔see〕I saw all my aunts and uncles at the reunion.在团聚时我见到了所有的姑姑叔叔〔us〕She saw us on the subway.在地铁站她见到我们了〔previse〕vidēre [to see] * see weid- vidēre [见到，看见] * 参见 weid- 〔sighting〕The act of catching sight of something, especially something unusual or searched for:看到：看见某物的动作，尤指见到不寻常或正在寻找的东西：〔serum〕Watery fluid from animal tissue, such as that found in edema.浆液：来自动物组织的水样液体，如在水肿中可以见到〔Stanley〕British journalist and explorer known for his expedition into Africa in search of David Livingstone, whom he greeted with the words "Doctor Livingstone, I presume?” (1871).斯坦利，亨利·莫顿：(1841-1904) 英国记者和探险家，以其在非洲找寻大卫·李文斯顿的探险而闻名，见到李文斯顿时他说，‘我想，您是李文斯顿博士吧？’(1871年）〔Actaeon〕A young hunter who, having inadvertently observed Artemis while she was bathing, was turned by her into a stag and killed by his own dogs.阿克特翁：年轻猎人，因无意中见到阿耳忒弥斯沐浴而被她变为牡鹿，并最终被他自己的狗群咬死 |
