outspread(形容词/过去分词,亦可作动词 outspread/outspread)
/ˌaʊtˈsprɛd/
The eagle rested with its wings outspread.
鹰停着,翅膀展开。
With arms outspread to block the doorway, she tried to stop the crowd from rushing in, but the pressure pushed her back.
她张开双臂挡在门口,试图阻止人群冲进来,但拥挤的压力把她逼得后退。
由 out-(向外)+ spread(展开、铺开)构成。字面意思就是“向外展开”。该词带有较强的画面感,因此常用于描写翅膀、树枝、帆、布等“摊开”的姿态,尤其在文学与描写性文本中更常见。
