用法讲解

n. (名词)
  1. anxiety的基本意思是“焦虑,着急(的情绪)”,指因悬而未决或吉凶难卜的事而引起的焦虑与紧张不安,也可指因即将到来的灾难或不幸而产生的恐惧与忧虑。anxiety作“令人着急、焦虑的事”解,是可数名词,引申可表示为某事焦虑,常译成“渴望,热望”,是不可数名词。
  2. anxiety后可接由that引导的同位语从句,从句中的谓语动词多用“should+动词原形”, should有时可省略。
n. (名词)
anxiety, care, worry
  • 这组词都有“忧虑”“担心”的意思。其区别是：
  • 1.care指由于责任重大,担心与恐惧而产生的“忧虑”“担心”; anxiety则指因悬而未决或吉凶难卜的事而引起的焦虑与紧张不安,也可指因即将到来的灾难和不幸而产生的恐惧与忧虑; worry则指由于问题、环境及人而从内心深处产生的“不安”“焦虑”或“烦恼”。
  • 2.anxiety仅指感情上的担忧,而care则除指感情上的担忧外,还可以指理智上对某事的挂念或操心。
  • 3.anxiety常指由于没有获得某物而引起的不安,而care则是获得了某物之后而引起的不安或操心。
  • 4.care的复数形式cares常表示烦恼或引起不安的具体的事; worry的复数形式worries通常指生活中使人操心的事,而anxiety则没有此用法。例如:
  • Care had made him look ten years older.操心使他看起来比实际年龄大了10岁。
  • The rich had their cares also.有钱的人也有他们烦恼的事情。
  • He expressed his anxiety for his son's safety.他说他担心儿子的安全。
  • His anxiety for knowledge deserves our praise.他对于知识的渴望,值得我们赞扬。
  • As his confidence in his work increased, his anxieties about his work is diminished.因为他对工作的信心增加了,对工作的担忧就减少了。
    • anxiety，worry，care，concern
  • 这些名词均含“焦虑、关心”之意。
  • anxiety指对预料中的不祥之事的焦虑。
  • worry侧重对未知事态演变的忧虑。
  • care强调因出于责任感或顾虑等而产生的不安。
  • concern作“关心”用时，是indifference(冷漠)的反义词，侧重对他人健康、安全等的关心，也可暗示对困难、危险或失败等的忧虑。

    • 词源解说

    • ☆ 1520左右进入英语，直接源自拉丁语的anxietatem，意为担心。
