Motivated

“Motivated” 是 “motivate” 的过去分词,作形容词表示有积极性的、有内在或外在动力的。常用于描述学习、工作或团队状态,如 “highly motivated students”。

  1. “She is highly motivated to finish her degree on time.” (她非常有动力按时完成学位。)
  2. “A motivated team can overcome many obstacles.” (有积极性的团队能克服许多障碍。)
  3. “Clear goals keep employees motivated and focused.” (明确的目标让员工保持干劲和专注。)

“Motivate” 来自拉丁语 “movere”(移动)的过去分词 “motus”,经 “motivation” 发展而来,核心概念是给予行动的动力。

词根 “motiv-” 与运动、动力相关;后缀 “-ate” 构成动词,“-ed” 作形容词表示“已被激发动机的状态”。

职场与教育中 “stay motivated” 是高频鼓励语;管理学强调内在动机(intrinsic motivation)与外在奖励(extrinsic rewards)对保持 motivated 状态的作用。

  • 动词: motivate
  • 名词: motivation, motive
  • 副词: motivationally
  • 固定搭配: “highly motivated” (积极性很高), “motivated by” (受……驱动), “self-motivated” (自我驱动的)

“motive” 动机加上 “-ated” 被赋予了动机——motivated 就是干劲十足的。

“Motivated by her dream of becoming a doctor, she studied every evening after work.” (成为医生的梦想激励着她,每天下班后都坚持学习。)
