I stopped the car and looked over at my mum.
这是一个完型填空的题,请问 look over at 这个短语什么意思,字典里没有这个短语
刘老师:
▲over在这里不是“反复”之意, 而是“在那边,在近旁”,表明人或事物之间有段距离,不那么直接。
You can use over to indicate a particular position or place a short distance away from someone or something.
例如:
John reached over and took Joanna's hand. 约翰伸手握住乔安娜的手。
He noticed Rolfe standing silently over by the window. 他注意到罗尔夫一声不吭地站在窗户旁边。
She sat over there reading. 她坐在那儿读书。
▲look over at的例句:
I looked over at them. They were sleeping. 我朝他们看过去,他们正在睡觉。
Pretty soon she looked over at the stairs. 过了一小会,她向楼梯望去。
"What time is it?" He looked over at the clock. “现在什么时候了?”他看了看表。
▲关于I stopped the car and looked over at my mum.这句话,从语境看,也表达了上述含义:“我停下车,望着妈妈。”说明车辆离我妈妈有段距离,同时还说明看得不是很直接,有可能含着透过车窗的含义。
黎老师:
look over at 的意思是“反复地看”,其中的 over 是副词,意思是“反复地”。
