v.(情绪)压倒,使不知所措
He was completely overcome by grief when he heard the news.
听到这个消息,他被悲痛完全淹没了。
语感
overcome = 翻越过去——困难是山,overcome 是爬过去的动作
克服战胜压倒
be overcome with / by 是义项二的核心搭配:be overcome with emotion / grief / joy(被情绪/悲伤/喜悦压倒)。注意介词可以是 with 或 by,两者均正确。overcome difficulties / challenges / obstacles / fear 是义项一的高频搭配,高考作文极常用。区别于 conquer:conquer 更强调「彻底征服」,overcome 更强调「挣扎后翻越」。
陷阱
⚠️be overcome with/by:被情绪淹没(≠ 主动克服)
The audience was overcome with emotion as the final notes of the symphony faded.
✗
overcome with emotion = 努力克服情绪
✓
be overcome with/by + 情绪词 = 被某种情绪压倒、淹没(被动的情绪状态),不是「主动克服」
当交响乐最后的音符渐渐消逝,听众被情绪完全淹没了。(被动,被情绪压倒)
