单词 | 仔细检查 |
释义 | 〔scrutinize〕To examine or observe with great care; inspect critically.细看,仔细检查:详细检查或仔细观察;很挑剔地检查〔scan〕In the 1969 edition ofThe American Heritage Dictionary a dead issue was buried by our Usage Panel, 85 percent of whom thought it was acceptable to usescan in the sense "to look over quickly,” though the note stated that this was less formal usage.The usage issue was raised becausescan in an earlier sense meant "to examine closely.” From a historical perspective it is easy to see how these two opposite senses ofscan developed. The source of our word, Latinscandere, which meant "to climb,” came to mean "to scan a verse of poetry,” because one could beat the rhythm by lifting and putting down one's foot.The Middle English verbscannen, derived from scandere, came into Middle English in this sense (first recorded in a text composed before 1398). In the 16th century this highly specialized sense having to do with the close analysis of verse developed other senses,such as "to criticize, examine minutely, interpret, perceive.” From these senses having to do with examination and perception,it was an easy step to the sense "to look at searchingly" (first recorded in 1798),perhaps harking back still to the careful, detailed work involved in analyzing prosody.But a thorough search can change into a quick one, as it seems to have done in the case of the verbscan. 在1969年版的美国传统词典 中,我们的用法委员会放弃了一个已废弃的争议, 其中85%的人认为scan 意为“快速浏览”是可接受的, 虽然注释上说这是非正式的用法。之所以这么用是因为scan 在较早的意义上表示“仔细检查”。 从历史的角度了解scan 的两个相反意思如何发展是容易的。 这个单词的词源是拉丁语scandere ,意为“攀登”,后又演化为“标出诗之格律”, 因为人们可以通过抬起或放下脚来打拍子。中世纪英语动词scannen 即是在这个意义上从 scandere 转化而来的(首次被记载在一本1398年之前编辑的教科书上)。 在16世纪这个已经高度专门化并且用来表示仔细分析诗歌的词语又发展出了其它的意项,如“批评、细致入微地检查、翻译或理解”。从这些表示检查和察觉的意思,很容易就过渡到“细察”(1798年首次被记载)的意义,也可能返回到仔细分析诗体的细微工作。但就象这个动词scan 一样,彻底地搜查可能变成快速地浏览 〔minute〕held a minute inspection of the grounds.See Synonyms at detailed 对地面进行仔细检查 参见 detailed〔rummage〕To search thoroughly by handling, turning over, or disarranging the contents of.彻底搜查,仔细检查,通过搬运、翻动或弄乱来搜寻〔con〕To study, peruse, or examine carefully.精读:研究、探究或仔细检查〔meticulous〕A careful examination of the antique bronze showed it to be a forgery.对古董铜像的仔细检查证明它是件赝品。〔rummage〕To make an energetic, usually hasty search.翻找,仔细检查:积极(通常又匆忙地)寻找〔study〕Attentive scrutiny.研究:仔细检查〔dissect〕To examine, analyze, or criticize in minute detail:详细分析,仔细剖析:仔细检查、分析或详细评论:〔discuss〕 Discuss involves close examination of a subject with interchange of opinions: Discuss 涉及对某一问题交换意见并仔细检查: 〔go〕went through the students' papers.仔细检查学生的论文〔parse〕To examine closely or subject to detailed analysis, especially by breaking up into components:仔细检查,细致分析:仔细检查或细致分析,尤指分解成各组成部分:〔viewing〕The act of seeing, watching, or examining carefully.观看,察看:看、观察或仔细检查的行为〔check〕the careful check of each unit before sale; gave the car an oil check.在出售之前对每一部分所做的仔细检查;检查一下汽车的汽油〔winnow〕To examine closely in order to separate the good from the bad; sift.筛选,选取:为把好的从坏的中分开而仔细检查;筛分〔canvass〕To examine carefully or discuss thoroughly; scrutinize:仔细检查:仔细检查或详尽地讨论;审查:〔case〕To examine carefully, as in planning a crime:踩点:仔细检查,如策划一项犯罪时:〔sift〕To examine and sort carefully:审查:仔细检查和挑选:〔pose〕Short for appose [to examine closely] from Middle English apposen alteration of opposen * see oppose appose的简写 [仔细检查] 源自 中古英语 apposen opposen的变化 * 参见 oppose |
