Heedless

“Heedless” 是形容词,指一个人不加考虑地行动,完全无视潜在的危险或他人的建议。它常含有“鲁莽”或“马虎”的意思。

  1. “He drove at high speed, heedless of the icy road conditions.” (他不顾冰冻的路面状况,高速行驶。)
  2. “She rushed into the burning building, heedless of her own safety.” (她冲进着火的建筑,全然不顾自己的安危。)
  3. “Heedless of the cost, they decided to renovate the entire mansion.” (不计成本地,他们决定翻修整座大宅。)

源自名词/动词 “heed” (注意)。

  • 词根: “heed” (注意)
  • 后缀: “-less” (没有…的)

在道德寓言中,“heedless” 的角色通常会因为无视老人的智慧或自然的法则而遭受惩罚。它描绘的是一种缺乏远见和自我约束的状态。

  • 副词: “heedlessly”
  • 名词: “heedlessness”
  • 反义词: “heedful”

“Heed” (注意) + “less” (无)。一个没有注意力的人,自然就是“不留心的”、“粗心的”。

“Heedless of the dark clouds gathering on the horizon, the group set off on their boat trip. By noon, they were caught in a violent storm that they could have easily avoided.” (这群人不顾地平线上聚集的乌云,开始了他们的航行。到了中午,他们陷入了一场本可以轻易避开的剧烈风暴中。)
