Question

demon n.魔鬼；恶魔；精力充沛的人；高手 (1) 村民相信这个女孩着魔了。(2) 这个恶魔用他的魔法控制这个女人。(3) 她丈夫工作起来精力过人。(4) 她是象棋高手。 You might come across a demon in a supernatural fairy tale, or even in the Christian Bible. Demons are often interchangeable with devils, and both words are sometimes used to talk about a cruel, fiendish person. If you're extremely good at something, you also might be described as a demon: "She's a demon at bowling." The Greek root, daimon, doesn't have the same negative connotations — it means "spirit or deity."
