  • 词语用法
    v. (动词)
    1. contemplate的基本意思是“深思,细想”,指对某事进行仔细的考虑,也可指安静而庄严地对某人或某物“注视,凝视”。contemplate可接名词、代词、动名词或wh-从句作宾语,有时还可接as短语充当补足语的复合宾语。
    词义辨析
    v. (动词)
    contemplate, consider, study, weigh
    • 这四个词都可表示“考虑”。contemplate指沉思默想,强调持久的、冷静的、注意力集中的思维,但不包含思维的目的、方法或结果; consider是一般用语,指某人在对具体事情作出决定之前进行更自觉、深度和广度更大、目的性更强的思索; study语气比consider更强些,指某人对某问题进行持久的、有目的的、慎重而细致的研究,根据此项所得的结果作出计划或采取某一行动; weigh指某人在作出决策前把一事物和别的事仔细进行比较,在心中权衡,考虑其利害和全局需要,再选择对其有利的东西。
    study,consider,ponder,weigh,contemplate
    • 这些动词均有“考虑、思考、估量”之意。
    • study普通用词,指对各方面考虑,在制订出计划或采取具体动作之前作认真检查。
    • consider既指一时的对某事的考虑,也指长时间的深入的思考。
    • ponder侧重仔细、深入、连续地考虑问题,以作出认真的估计和正确的抉择。
    • weigh指作出决策前把问题的各个方面进行比较,权衡利害得失,取有利的方面。
    • contemplate通常指长时间思考某事,有时含无确定的实际目的。
