assiduous

基本释义

深入解读

Assiduous 是一个容易与 acidulous （带酸味的）相混淆的单词，该词源自拉丁语 assiduus （不断地出现、不停的、忙碌的、不变的），16世纪30年代进入英语后开始用来表示“勤奋的、刻苦的、坚持不懈的、兢兢业业的、勤勤恳恳的”，常作为正式用语使用，多指坚持不懈、不屈不挠地努力工作，并且非常小心地把每件事都做得尽可能的好或者说非常彻底，比如：

• 他们希望能够效法她刻苦钻研的精神。
  They hope to emulate her spirit of assiduous study.
• 一位该歌剧的一贯赞助者深深凝视着她的眼睛。
  An assiduous patron of the opera gazed into the depths of her eyes.

好书例句
