core核心畫面

You can picture 'caught' as the moment 'catch' already happened — the hand has closed, the thing is already held, the person already trapped. It's catch frozen in the past: the grabbing is over and done.

可以把 caught 想成 catch(抓)這個動作「已經發生完」的那一刻——手已經合起來,東西已經在手裡,或人已經被困住。換句話說,它就是 catch 的過去式和過去分詞,重點在於「抓」這件事已經結束、已經成立了。
