用法讲解
- lean的基本意思是指由于受力的作用,使原本垂直的人或物成为倾斜状态,即“倾斜”,或指两个人或事物相互接触,使二者达到一种平衡状态,即“靠”。引申可指“依赖”。
- lean主要用作不及物动词,作“靠”解时还可用作及物动词。lean后接介词against或on可表示“靠在…上”。
- lean的过去式和过去分词有两种形式,即leaned, leaned和leant, leant。
- lean, emaciated, haggard, spare, thin
-
- 这组词都可表示“瘦”。其区别是：
- spare指人的身材给人以美感的瘦; thin既可指人的身材,也可指人的身体某部位瘦,大多数指因疾病或疲劳而消瘦; emaciated表示的“瘦”主要是由疾病和营养不良造成的; haggard指人的面孔憔悴的,枯槁的,主要是由于忧虑和少眠所致; lean指人天生瘦,是缺少脂肪的意思。例如:
- She was a tall, spare girl.她是个瘦高个儿的姑娘。
- His face was thin.他的脸瘦。
- He was emaciated by long illness.他由于长期生病而瘦弱了。
- The haggard faces of the rescued miners showed what they had suffered.被救出的矿工枯槁的面容表明他们遭受了什么样的苦难。
- He had the lean fit look of a trained athlete.他具有一个受过训练的运动员的清瘦而健康的面容。
- lean, gaunt, slender, thin
-
- 这组词都可形容人“瘦”。其区别是：
- thin指因病、过分劳累或缺乏营养等而缺少正常的肌肉; gaunt指因饥饿或操劳过度而呈现的枯瘦或憔悴的面庞; lean强调缺乏脂肪,指自然的瘦,其肌肉却很结实; slender可指人或动物,作“细长的,苗条的”解,有时含有“纤弱”的意思。例如:
- He has the gaunt face of a starving man.他是一副憔悴的面容的饿汉相。
- The forest ranger is lean.那位森林警察很结实。
- She admired Alice's slender build.她羡慕艾丽斯那苗条的身材。
- lean，slender，slim，slight，thin
-
- 这些形容词均有“瘦的”之意。
- lean侧重缺少脂肪。既可能是因病而瘦，也可能因饥饿而消瘦；也指身体消瘦，但肌肉结实，身体健康。
- slender指身体细长、体态优美、苗条适中，多用于指女性。
- slim指身体的细长，体重轻不着重外形的优美，可用于不同的性别，常用于减轻体重的人。
- slight指身材又瘦又小。
- thin普通用词，指腰细、骨架窄，常因疾病或疲劳而消瘦。
