- 1熱尋標的(幾乎都用來形容飛彈:熱尋標飛彈)
A heat-seeking weapon — most often a missile — can find the hot gas that comes out of a plane or a rocket and fly towards that heat until it hits. The machine is not looking with eyes; it follows warmth. You meet the word in news about war and in action films. Ordinary talk almost never needs it, except there. Though actually, you will sometimes hear a joke, heat-seeking, about a person who always sits next to the heater — that is play. The real home of the word is weapons.
heat-seeking 說的是會追著熱源走的武器,最常見的是飛彈。它靠偵測飛機或火箭噴出的熱氣,一路朝熱源飛過去,直到擊中目標。重點在於機器不是用眼睛看,而是追著熱度走。
這個字最常出現在「a heat-seeking weapon」這樣的說法裡,主要見於戰爭新聞和動作片。日常對話幾乎用不到,除非是在談武器。
另外有人會開玩笑,說某人總愛坐在暖氣旁邊,也叫他 heat-seeking,但那是玩笑,不是這個字的本業。
From the word’s history
Compound of heat + seeking.
