Eyes
“Eyes” 最基本指视觉器官。习语中 “keep an eye on” 表示留意；“in the public eye” 表示受公众关注。复数常强调双眼或多人注视。
- “Her eyes were red after crying for an hour.” (哭了一小时后，她的眼睛红了。)
- “All eyes were on the singer when the lights came up.” (灯光亮起时，所有人都盯着那位歌手。)
- “We need fresh eyes on this design before we launch.” (上线前我们需要别人用新眼光看看这个设计。)
“Eye” 来自古英语 “ēage”，与德语 “Auge” 同源，印欧语系中有悠久的“看”的语义传统。
“Eyes” 为不规则变化：单数 “eye” 以元音结尾，复数加 “-s” 并保留拼写 “eyes”（发音与 “I’s” 不同，整词读 /aɪz/）。
英语文学与歌词里 “eyes” 常象征情感与真相，如 “the eyes are the window to the soul”。隐私讨论中也常见 “digital eyes” 比喻监控。
- 固定搭配: “keep an eye on” (照看、留意), “see eye to eye” (看法一致), “with naked eyes” (用肉眼)
两个 “eye” 就像两个字母 o 画成圆圈，成双成对就是 “eyes”。
“The cat narrowed its eyes and watched the mouse hole without moving.” (猫眯起眼睛，一动不动地盯着老鼠洞。)
