言之有物
1. 词汇辨析:clever wise smart
→clever adj. 聪明的;聪颖的
英释:able to learn and understand things quickly
强调头脑灵活,接受新事物快,有智有谋,但不一定暗示全面妥当地考虑问题
→wise adj. 充满智慧的;明智的
英释:able to make sensible decisions and give good advice because of the experience and knowledge that you have
侧重不是一般的聪明伶俐,而是有远见,有智慧,能明智地处理问题
→smart adj. 聪明的;机敏的
英释:intelligent or sensible
普通用词,更强调机灵
Lucy is quite clever and does well at school.
露西很聪明,学习成绩很好。
a clever lawyer's tricks
滑头律师所耍的花招
a wise old man
智叟
The wisest course of action is just to say nothing.
最明智的做法就是缄默不言。
His decision to become a director was a smart move (=sensible thing to do).
他决定要成为导演,这是个聪明之举。
活学活用
请用clever/wise/smart 随意造句
