  • 词义辨析
  • charm, allure, attract, captivate, enchant, fascinate
  • 这组词共同的意思是“吸引”。它们之间的区别是：
    1.从词义上说：attract和captivate是“吸引”; allure是“引诱”; charm、enchant和fascinate是“迷惑,使着魔”。
    2.从“吸引源”上说：attract和captivate用的是吸引者所具有的性质或特性; allure用的是美丽的、有魅力的东西或有效的手段、美好的前途等; charm、enchant和fascinate用的是符咒或魔法,更多的是用魔法般的事物。例如:
    Her beauty captivated many.她的美貌吸引了许多人。
    The swindler allured her by hopes.这骗子用希望引诱她。

    The witch enchanted the princess.女巫迷惑了公主。
    The boy was fascinated by all the toys in the big department store.这孩子为大百货店里所有的玩具所迷惑。
    3.从结果上说：attract指被吸引者有感应; captivate指控制住兴趣或感情; allure指被引诱而堕落或克服某人的抵触情绪或冷漠态度; charm指迷住其感官或心灵; enchant指激起羡慕或使其销魂; fascinate则指无法抵抗或不能逃脱。例如:
    He was captivated by Mary.他被玛丽所迷。
    Don't be allured into bars by the pretty waitresses.不要被美丽的女招待引诱至酒吧间。
