Picture a vertical scale with a marker slid far up it. What the scale measures changes from use to use — how much of a quality there is, how far someone has been trained, how far up an organisation they sit, how well you rate them — but the marker is always near the top. One warning worth carrying: this is not a general-purpose 'very'. English only lets it sit in front of certain words.
可以想成:一根直立的刻度尺,指針被推到很上面。每次量的東西不一樣——某種性質有多強、一個人受過多少訓練、他在組織裡的位置多高、你對他的評價多好——但指針總是靠近頂端。有一件事值得記住:它不是萬用的 very,英文只讓它放在特定的字前面。
