The past participlerapt has survived in Modern English, where it has become a separate wordreferring to states of deep delight or absorption,far removed from the hideous cruelties ofrape. The sense involving these cruelties was probably present in Middle Englishand has largely taken over the word.尽管在动词rape 这一词条中,我们列了三个意思, 但实际很多人并不认为该词有这么多意思。Rape 从其起源的拉丁语单词 rapere 甚至有更多的词义, 其中包括“使销魂”这一含意。然而,我们必须记住所有这些词义都同“用武力夺取或抢走”有关,性方面的侵犯只是其中的一个意思。在中古英语中,由拉丁语rapere 一词产生的动词 rapen 的词义已经减少, 不过其中有些词义和现在的词义完全不同。它可以意为“约定或确定时间”(“他不肯 约定时间” )或“由人间带某人进入天堂”( “圣保罗进入天堂 的情景” )。 该词的过去分词rapt 仍存在于现代英语中, 在这里它已成为一个单独的单词,意为一种极其兴奋或被深深吸引的状态,这个意思与rape 一词丑恶的词义相去甚远。 与残酷行为有关的词义可能在中世纪就存在,后来被保留了下来〔act〕This scene acts well.这个情景很适于舞台演出〔apocalypse〕Any of a number of anonymous Jewish or Christian texts from around the second centuryb.c. to the second century a.d. containing prophetic or symbolic visions, especially of the imminent destruction of the world and the salvation of the righteous. 启示文学作品:一种作者不详的,公元前 2世纪至 公元 2世纪左右的犹太教或基督教启示文学作品,包含预言或象征情景,尤指世界末日迫近和正义者救世的内容 〔flaky〕"that slightly flakey quality, in joy as well as in grief, that prepares us subtly for the mad scenes to come"(Village Voice)“那略有些古怪的气质,不论高兴还是悲伤,都在不知不觉中使我们作好准备,以迎接非常情景的到来”(乡村之音)〔drama〕A situation or succession of events in real life having the dramatic progression or emotional effect characteristic of a play:戏剧性事件或场面:现实生活中具有戏剧特点的进程或感情效果的情景或一系列事件:〔mirth〕 Glee applies especially to jubilant delight resulting from a particular circumstance,such as winning a victory ( Glee 特指由某一特定情景导致的欢腾中的快乐,如赢得胜利( 〔mime〕A form of ancient Greek and Roman theatrical entertainment in which familiar characters and situations were farcically portrayed on stage, often with coarse dialogue and ludicrous actions.笑剧:古希腊和古罗马的一种戏剧表演形式,剧中类似的人物或情景在舞台上以闹剧表演出来,通常伴有粗俗的对白和荒唐可笑的动作〔phantasmagoria〕A constantly changing scene composed of numerous elements.变幻无常的情景:由许多情景构成的不断变化的场面〔curtain〕The concluding line, speech, or scene of a play or an act.结语,最后一幕:一场戏或一幕戏的最后一行台词、演说或情景〔mental〕mental images of happy times.See Usage Note at mental telepathy 脑海中浮现出快乐时光的情景 参见 mental telepathy〔picture〕The chief circumstances of an event or time; a situation.情景:事件或时代的主要环境;情形〔pomp〕the solemn pomp of a military funeral.军人葬礼上庄严肃穆的情景〔shambles〕The original sense ofshambles to denote a meat market is by now so obscurein American usage that it must be counted the height of pedantry to insist,as a few critics continue to do,that the word should be used metaphorically only to refer to a scene of carnage.作为指肉市的单词shambles 的原始意义, 现在已很模糊,以致在美语用法中认为这个词只能隐喻地指屠杀情景,若还象一些批评家继续做的那样,准会被看作是极度迂腐的做法〔Fellini〕Italian filmmaker whose works, includingLa Dolce Vita (1960) and Amarcord (1973), combine social satire with elements of fantasy. 费里尼,弗德里奥:(生于 1920) 意大利电影制片人,他的作品结合了社会讽刺和幻想的情景,包括《美满生活》 (1960年)和 《阿马尔德》 (1973年) 〔Huxley〕British writer. His best-known work,Brave New World (1932), paints a grim picture of a scientifically organized utopia. 赫胥黎,阿尔道斯·伦纳德:(1894-1963) 英国作家。他最著名的作品《美丽的新世界》 (1932年)描绘了以科学方式组织的理想社会的恐怖情景 〔cartoon〕A drawing depicting a humorous situation, often accompanied by a caption.卡通画:描绘幽默情景、通常伴有解说词的一幅画〔ballyhoo〕The origin ofballyhoo has been the subject of much speculation. This spelling has actually graced four different words:ballyhoo, "sensational advertising"; ballyhoo, a spelling of balao, a kind of fish; ballyhoo, a part of the name ballyhoo bird, about which more later; andballyhoo, a sailor's epithet for a disliked ship. This lastballyhoo (first recorded in 1836) was thought to be related to, or the same as, the word ballahou, from Spanishbalahú, "a type of schooner common in the Antilles.” First recorded in 1867,ballahou, besides being a term for a specific kind of ship, was also used contemptuously of inferior ships.But the connection between these sailing terms or the name of the fish and our wordballyhoo, first recorded in 1901, has not been established. There may, however, be a tie betweenballyhoo and the creature called a ballyhoo bird. According to a July 1880 article inHarper's, the bird had four wings and two heads and could whistle through one bill while singing through the other.Anyone who has ever hunted a snipe will know what hunting ballyhoo birds was like.单词ballyhoo 的来源一直存在种种推测。 这个词的拼写实际上包含有四个不同的词:ballyhoo, 意为“耸人听闻的广告”; ballyhoo, 是 balao 的一种拼写,是一种鱼; ballyhoo, 是 ballyhoo bird 的一部分,其出现更晚; 还有一个是ballyhoo, 是水手对不喜欢的船的称呼。 这最后一个ballyhoo (最早记载于1836年)被认为与 ballahou 有关或相同, 该词来自西班牙语balahu, 意为“流行于安的列斯群岛的一种纵帆船。” 首次记载于1867年,ballahou 一词除表示一种特殊的船外, 还表示同时代的劣等船。但这些与航海有关的词或鱼类名称的词与我们所使用的、首次记载于1901年的一词ballyhoo 之间尚未建立联系。 然而也许ballyhoo 一词与被称为 ballyhoo bird 的生物之间有某种联系。 根据1880年7月哈帕斯 杂志中一篇文章的描写, 这种鸟有四翅双头,可以用其中一张嘴吹哨,同时用另一张嘴唱歌。任何曾经猎过鹬鸟的人将会知道捕猎“巴里嗬”鸟是怎样的一种情景〔scenario〕An outline of the plot of a dramatic or literary work.情节梗概:戏剧情景或文学作品的梗概〔diopside〕Greek opsis [-opsis] 希腊语 opsis [前缀,表“景色,外观,情景”] 〔cast〕To join or side with for better or worse.同甘共苦:加入或共担更好或更坏的情景〔mythmaker〕One that creates myths or mythical situations.神话创作者;虚构专家:创造神或神话般情景的人〔shambles〕A scene or condition of great devastation.悲惨的情景:大毁坏的景象或状态〔note〕quietly took note of the scene.悄悄地注意情景〔Bellows〕American artist noted for his energetic paintings of sporting scenes, such asStag at Sharkey's (1907). 贝洛斯,乔治·韦斯利:(1882-1925) 美国艺术家,以其充满活力的运动情景绘画而著称,如《夏基斯的公鹿》 (1907年) |
