Feeling confused and worked up, so that you cannot do things calmly. A flurried person is doing several things at once, half-finishing each one — hands moving, mind jumping. The feeling can come from nerves, from hurry, or from happy excitement; the word does not tell you which, only that the person is stirred up and not steady. Note that this word is old-fashioned now. You will meet it in books, especially older stories, much more often than in speech. Today most people say 'flustered' instead, or just say someone was 'in a flurry'. The related noun 'flurry' is very much alive — 'a flurry of activity', 'a flurry of snow' — so students often know 'flurry' and are surprised by the adjective. When you do meet 'flurried', it is usually about a moment, not a personality: someone becomes flurried, they are not flurried as a rule.
慌亂的、手忙腳亂的（帶點興奮或緊張，語感偏老派，現代人多說 flustered）
組成From the noun 'flurry' — a sudden short burst of movement, like a quick fall of snow or a rush of wind — plus '-ed', which turns it into a state someone is in. So: put into a flurry.
