- 1忐忑地、憂心地
You do something apprehensively when you are worried or nervous about what is coming — a test, a visit to the dentist, a talk you have to give, news you have not heard yet. The feeling looks forward: the trouble is not here yet, but you can already feel it.

Though actually, it is not comprehensively (that means “fully, covering everything”), and it is not about the police catching a thief — even though the verb apprehend can mean that. In real use, apprehensively almost always means “in a worried way.”
Though actually不過事實上 it is not comprehensively它不是comprehensively (that means "fully, covering everything")(意思是「全面地、涵蓋一切」) and it is not about the police catching a thief也跟警察抓小偷無關 even though the verb apprehend can mean that雖然動詞apprehend確實可以是那個意思 In real use在實際使用裡 apprehensively almost always means "in a worried way."apprehensively幾乎都是指「帶著擔心的心情」
