Clever as he was, he didn't pass the exam- ination.虽然他聪明,但他没有考及格。bright，clever，wise，brilliant，intelligent，ingenious，smart，shrewd这些形容词均含有“聪明的”之意。 bright口语常用词，多指年轻人，尤指小孩思路敏捷，理解力强，机灵等。 clever强调头脑灵活，接受新事物快，有智有谋，但不一定暗示全面妥当地考虑问题。 wise侧重不是一般的聪明伶俐，而是有远见，有智慧，能明智地处理问题。 brilliant指人的才华出众，思路敏捷，常令人赞叹不已。 intelligent正式用词，指在理解新的、抽象东西或处理解决问题时，智力超过一般常人。 ingenious指思路敏捷，并暗示有创造与发明的才能和技巧。 smart普通用词，与bright和clever的意思很相近，但更强调机灵。 shrewd指精明老练，有头脑，善于判断和把握有利机会。 来自原始印欧语*gleibh，砍，劈，词源同cleft, glyph。进一步来自原始印欧语*skel，砍，劈，词源同skill, scale。引申词义有鉴别能力的，聪明的。比较science。来自原始印欧语*skei，砍，劈。 cleft来自cleave，劈开。 glyph来自原始印欧语*gleubh，砍，切，刻，词源同cleave, cleft。用于文字学术语。比较cuneiform, hieroglyph。 skill来自中古英语skill，知识。来自古诺斯语skil，区分，鉴别，知识。来自原始日耳曼语*skilja，分开。来自原始印欧语*skel，砍，劈。来自原始印欧语*skei，砍，劈，词源同ski, science。引申词义技术，技能，技巧等。 scale来自古诺斯语skel，贝壳，skal，碗，饮水容器。来自原始日耳曼语*skaela，分开，劈开。来自原始印欧语*skel，砍，切，分开，词源同shell, scallop。由贝壳引申词义碗，饮水器具，由贝壳的钙化性质引申词义水垢，牙石，由碗，饮水容器引申词义秤，天平，即秤的原型，由该印欧语的词根义引申词义鱼鳞，鳞片等。来自拉丁语scala，梯子。来自缩写自scandere，攀爬，攀登。来自原始印欧语*skand，爬，上升，词源同scan, ascend, descend。字母d脱落，类似拼写比较rule, regulate。引申词义规模，范围，程度，等级，比例等。 science来自古法语science，知识，学习，习得。来自拉丁语scientia，知识，学识，专长。来自scire，知道，了解，字面意思即区分，鉴别。来自原始印欧语*skei，砍，切，劈，分开，词源同shed, shin, scythe。词义演变比较intelligence，智能，智商，原义为选择和区分的能力。后词义专门化为科学。

adj.形容词
clever的基本意思是“灵巧”。可指人身体的灵巧,也可指人“心灵思维敏捷、足智多谋”或“手巧”。强调能较快地理解并正确掌握和应用所学的知识或技能。在口语中，clever可作“精明的,耍小聪明的”解,此时常有贬义。clever在句中可用作定语、表语或补语。 clever前可用very修饰。其比较级为cleverer,最高级为cleverest。 clever是具有评价意义的形容词,可接动词不定式来说明主语在哪些方面存在形容词所表示的特点,如该动词不定式另有逻辑主体,则须用介词of引出; 接at表示“擅长某种活动或研究课题”; 接with表示“擅长使用”。 clever单数前加the,表示一类人。
