thwarted
🇺🇸 /θwˈɔɹtɪd/
thwarted 是形容词,表示某人的计划、努力或愿望受到阻挠,因而未能如愿。
💡 记忆钩子
把它想成一条路:你正要走向目标,却被一道障碍挡住了;这道外来的阻力让计划、行动或愿望都“走不通”,所以 thwarted 不仅是失望,更强调事情被阻止或挫败。
📝 学习建议
- 不要只把 thwarted 记成“沮丧”:它重点指计划或行动受到阻挠、没有实现,人的失望感只是可能的结果。可先掌握“计划或努力受阻”这一核心,再扩展到愿望和企图受挫。
📖 中文释义
adj
-
core 受阻而未能如愿📖 指原本想做成的事被人、情况或其他障碍挡住了,因此计划、努力或愿望没有实现;它强调“被阻挠”的过程和结果。💡 常见搭配是“thwarted plans”“thwarted efforts”或“thwarted ambitions”,也可说“某人的计划 was thwarted by 某事”。它多用于描述具体行动或目标受阻,正式程度比日常的“没成功”略高。不要把它直接当作表示人的情绪的词;若要说“感到沮丧”,需要另加表示感受的表达。Their plans to open a café were thwarted by a sudden rise in rent.他们开咖啡馆的计划因租金突然上涨而受阻。She made one last attempt, but her efforts were thwarted by the locked gate.她做了最后一次尝试,但她的努力被锁住的大门挡住了。
