有一題題目如下: Bob stayed up late last night,so he had trouble staying _________while he is driving A. alert B. sober
alert指警覺心,sober指清醒,答案是A還是B? stay up :熬夜
stay alert 指保持警覺,是常用的搭配語。 Passengers should try to stay alert at all times. 旅客應該隨時保持警覺!
sober是指清醒,但指的是「沒有藥物或酒精的影響下意識清醒」,而不是「不愛睏」的清醒。 She wanted a drink, but she had to stay sober. 她想喝點酒,但她必須保持清醒。
I need a black coffee to sober me up. 我需要一杯黑咖啡醒酒。
所以答案是A,因為文中沒有提到有喝酒或是用藥的狀況。
這樣有清楚些了嗎?
