| 单词 | 完全失败 |
| 释义 | 〔founder〕The verbsfounder and flounder are often confused. Founder comes from a Latin word meaning "bottom" (as infoundation ) and originally referred to knocking enemies down;it is now used as well to mean "to fail utterly, collapse.” Flounder means "to move clumsily, thrash about,”and hence "to proceed in confusion.”If John isfoundering in Chemistry 1, he had better drop the course; if he isfloundering, he may yet pull through. 动词founder 和 flounder 常被混淆。 Founder 从拉丁语演变而来， 意为“底部”（如在foundation 中）， 原指将敌人打倒在地；现在亦指“完全失败，崩溃”。 Flounder 指“挣扎，踉跄”，并由此引申出“在困惑中进行”的意思。如果说约翰在化学1中失败， 他最好放弃这门功课； 如果他正在挣扎中， 他可能还能通过这门课 |
