宝宝心里苦：tired的用法你知道吗？

Men marry because they are tired, women because they are curious; both are disappointed.

——Oscar Wilde

——奥斯卡·王尔德

一、下面我们来看看tired有几种含义 

adj.

1.疲劳的，累的 feeling that you would like to sleep or rest; needing rest

Man was made at the end of the week’s work when god was tired.

人类是上帝在工作了一周已经疲劳的时候创造出来的。

2.厌倦的，厌烦的 feeling that you have had enough of sb / sth because you no longer find them / it interesting or because they make you angry or unhappy

He is tired of his city job and dreams of getting back to the land.

他厌倦城里的工作，渴望回去过田园生活。

二、词义辨析：还有什么词能表示“疲倦的”的意思呢？

weary, tired

这两个形容词均有“累的，疲乏的”之意。weary侧重指由于连续不断进行某项活动而造成的疲劳，以致感到厌烦。tired普通用词，泛指因工作紧张，劳动过度，休息不足等而引起的疲乏。

三、学会tired的用法了吗？来做个填词游戏吧

He dragged his ____ feet slowly along.

他拖着疲倦的步子慢慢地走着。
