Thrilled
“Thrilled” 描述人因期待的好消息或体验而感到非常兴奋、欣喜。语气强于 “happy” 或 “glad”，常与 “to be thrilled”、“thrilled that” 连用。也可来自动词 thrill（使激动）的过去分词用法。
- “We were thrilled to hear you got the scholarship.” (听说你拿到奖学金，我们特别激动。)
- “The kids were thrilled by the surprise party.” (孩子们被惊喜派对搞得兴奋不已。)
- “She looked thrilled when the prototype finally worked.” (原型终于跑通时，她一脸兴奋。)
“Thrill” 源自中古英语 “thrillen”（刺穿、颤动），与强烈的身心震颤感有关，后转为兴奋之义。
动词 “thrill” 的过去分词形式作形容词，“-ed” 表状态。
常见于邀请函答复、采访感言与社交媒体庆祝帖；礼貌用语 “I’d be thrilled to…” 表示欣然接受。
- 固定搭配: “thrilled with” (对……非常满意、激动), “thrilled to bits” (英式口语：高兴极了)
心脏 thrill（震颤）——高兴得心跳加速就是 thrilled。
“He was thrilled beyond words when the rescue team reached the stranded hikers.” (救援队赶到被困徒步者身边时，他激动得说不出话。)
