2. 体会这个词 (进阶篇)

“shape”作为名词表示“形状”,它也常作为动词使用,意思是“影响”、“塑造”、“决定”。用它可以替换 influence 和 have an impact on。由于“shape”有“形状”的意思,因此作“塑造”的意思形象生动,表示影响的程度很大。

比如,柯林斯词典中就有这样一个简单实用的例句:

Like it or not, our families shape our lives and make us what we are.

1)翻译下面的句子:


很多人认为,我们所讲的语言可以决定我们的思维方式。

Many people yhink that the language we speak can shape our thinking.

(参考翻译:Many believe that the language we speak shapes the way we think.)

2)结合自己的生活、学习、工作、兴趣等,想象在什么语境下会用到这个表达。先简要描述这个场景,再造句。

场景:健身塑形

造句:I exercise everyday to shape myself.

场景:教育

造句:The headmaster has recently shaped up the students in their study and entertainment.
