Having a vivid imagination is often thought to be a good thing as it enables people to enjoy themselves and to sympathize more with other people by imagining what it is like to be them. Fantasy is usually used to contrast imagined things with the real world, often in a negative way, suggesting that sb is unwilling or unable to face reality. * imagination含义通常比fantasy更正面。拥有vivid imagination(丰富的想象力)常被视为好事,因为它能使人得到乐趣,也能使人对他人的处境感同身受。fantasy通常用以对比虚构的事物与真实的世界,这种对比常常带有贬义,暗示怀抱幻想者不愿或无法面对现实。■ˈmake-believe [uncountable] (sometimesdisapproving) imagining or pretending that things are different or more exciting than they really are; imagining that sth is real, or that you are sb else, for example in a child's game虚构;想象;(儿童游戏等中的)假扮,假装◆They live in a world of make-believe.他们生活在虚幻的世界里。◆'Let's play make-believe,' said Sam.萨姆说:“咱们来玩过家家吧。”
