近義詞辨析
    beautiful, goodlooking, handsome, lovely, pretty
    這組詞均含有“美麗”、“漂亮”、“可愛”的意思。
    Beautiful指能不僅給人帶來感官上的快樂,而且通過感官產(chǎn)生思想和靈魂的愉悅,在同類詞中層次。
    She was even more beautiful than I had remembered.她比我記憶中的她更漂亮了。
    goodlooking 不如handsome, pretty意思強(qiáng)烈,指一般的“好看”或“悅目”。
    That goodlooking young man visited the house once or twice a week.那個(gè)長相不錯(cuò)的年輕人一星期光顧一兩次。
    handsome 通常是一種客觀的不帶感情色彩的評(píng)價(jià)。一個(gè)人如被形容為handsome,是指此人外貌符合觀察者的要求,但不激發(fā)更深層的感受。
    He looked very handsome in his dark suit.他穿深色西裝顯得非常英俊。
    lovely比感官的快樂更進(jìn)一步,是強(qiáng)調(diào)純粹情感上的愉悅,指覺得某人或某物“可愛”。
    Mary has two lovely daughters.瑪麗有兩個(gè)可愛的女兒。
    pretty也是“漂亮、可愛”的意思。很少形容大而有影響力的事物,多形容事物不以其優(yōu)秀、完美而以小巧、優(yōu)雅、精致見長,使人容易接受并喜愛。
    Her boyfriend believes that she is the prettiest girl in the town.她男朋友覺得她是鎮(zhèn)上最漂亮的女孩。
