You can picture prepared as 'already made ready ahead of time, so that when the moment comes you are set'. The is done before it is needed: the bags are packed, the answer is thought through, the mind has already said yes. From that one idea — being ready in advance — the word reaches both into things (a prepared speech) and into people (ready, and willing, to act).
可以想成「事先就弄好了,等那一刻一到,你已經就位」。該做的鋪墊在用到之前就做完了:行李打包好、答案想清楚、心裡也早已點頭。從「提早備妥」這一個念頭出發,這個詞一邊伸向東西(事先寫好的講稿),一邊伸向人(準備好、也願意去做)。
