词义辨析

v. (动词)

hunt, explore, search, seek

• 这四个词都有“寻找”“搜索”的意思。其区别在于：第一, hunt和search都是指搜寻具体的人或某一具体事物,而seek则指对崇高目的或抽象事物的追求或向往; explore指对未知事物或新生事物的探索、观察与研究。第二, hunt含有急切的意味,也常指无结果地寻找,而另外三词没有此种意味。例如:
• A police patrol was organized to search for him.警察巡逻队被组织起来去寻找他。
• We must explore all the possibilities.我们必须探讨所有的可能性。
• We are earnestly seeking after the truth.我们在认真地寻找真理。
• I've hunted high and low for my socks.我到处在找我的短袜。

hunt, track

• 这两个词的共同意思是“追捕”,其区别是：
• track强调跟踪或顺着线索追查; 而hunt既可指猎取动物,也可泛指搜寻人或其他事物。例如:
• The men had gone to the forest to hunt wild game.男人们已去森林中打野味了。
• They hunted everywhere for her.他们到处寻找她。
• She hunted the house over for her lost ring.她在屋子里翻箱倒柜,到处寻找那只丢失的戒指。

pursue，follow，chase，hunt，trace，track，trail

• 这些动词均含“跟随、追踪”之意。
• pursue指坚持不懈、毫不动摇地紧跟、追赶某人、某物或某个事业。
• follow普遍用词，含义最广，多指跟随起引导作用的人或物，跟随的动机可以是善意的，也可能是恶意的。
• chase指快速追赶或决心追踪，褒义贬义均可用。
• hunt原义为“追猎、猎取”，现用于指追捕或搜寻逃犯等。
• trace指根据线索或足迹进行跟踪。用于抽象意义时指找到某事物的根源。
• track指沿着人或动物留下的印迹或行迹追踪。
• trail一般指跟踪追击。

词源解说
