今天我们要学的词是 apprehend。
Apprehend 的一个解释是拘捕、拘押,The U.S. Border Patrol apprehended nearly 400,000 people who were attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border during the 2018 fiscal year. 美国边境巡逻队在2018财政年度逮捕了近40万试图越过美墨边境的人。
Apprehend的另一个意思是理解、领会, The Saudi Crown Prince is suspected of playing a significant role in the death of Khashoggi, while appears to be unable to apprehend the international rage over his Murder. 沙特王储被怀疑在沙特记者卡舒吉遇害事件中发挥了重要作用,但他似乎无法理解国际社会对这一谋杀事件的愤怒。
