v. (动词)
seize, seize on〔upon〕

  • 1.arrest指官方依法对罪犯或犯罪嫌疑人予以拘捕、收审; seize指突然有力地抓住,其引申意义可指抓住转瞬即逝或难以捉摸的东西; capture强调用武力手段,克服一定的困难或抵抗后而“捕获”“抓获”,也可指竞赛中的“夺标”或在军事上对某地的“占领”; catch属常用词,多指通过追踪、武力、计谋、突然袭击等方式“抓住”某人或某物。例如:
  • The bandit was caught red-handed.
  • 这个歹徒当场被捉。

  • 明亮的灯光吸引了婴儿的注意力。
  • The unusual panelling on the walls caught my attention.
  • 墙上不同寻常的镶板引起了我的注意。
