英语单词 conceivable
英美音标 [kən'si:vəb(ə)l]
中文释义 adj.可能的,想得到的,可想像的
vocab简明 If you see yellowish skies on a humid, spring evening in Kansas, it is entirely conceivable that a tornado is in the making. That is to say, it's imaginable or even possible, so make sure you take every conceivable precaution.
vocab扩展 If you conceive of something, you imagine or think of it. So, it makes sense that the adjective conceivable describes things that can be imagined or thought of. People often use the word conceivable in extreme contexts. If you look everywhere for your homework but still can't find it, you might declare, "I searched in every conceivable location! My homework must have disappeared." In response, your teacher might remark that disappearing homework is inconceivable, or "impossible to imagine."
真题原句 Such bodily reaction might conceivably help moderate the effects of psychological stress.
