二、詞義辨析：還有那些詞匯能表示“不幸的”

miserable, wretched, unhappy, sorry

這些形容詞均含“不幸的”之意。

miserable指因貧窮、不幸或屈辱等外部因素給人造成精神痛苦、煩惱或肉體折磨，令人同情和可憐。

wretched多指由于疾病、擔(dān)憂、憂傷等造成的不幸和痛苦，在外表上顯得沮喪、可憐、失望，語(yǔ)氣比miserable強(qiáng)。

unhappy側(cè)重指精神上的不快或失望。

sorry常作禮貌用詞，表遺憾、婉惜。也指說(shuō)話人表示同情、悲哀等，感情色彩較強(qiáng)。

?

三、最后，做個(gè)填詞游戲吧

He decided to help Jan as he felt ______ for her.
他同情簡(jiǎn)的遭遇,決定幫助她。 ?
