Question

lair n.(野兽的)巢穴；(人的)藏身处 (1) 受伤的狼躺在自己的巢穴里养伤。(2) 猎人追捕野兽直到兽穴。(3) 绑架者的藏身处是一座山上的旧农场。(4) 警察跟踪小偷找到他们的巢穴。 The noun lair has its roots in the Old English leger, meaning “bed, couch, place of lying down.” It eventually became an “animal’s den” in the early 15th century. A person can have a lair, too, like the photo-covered basement of a serial killer, or a less scary person might have a cozy lair lined with plush carpet. Always poke a stick into a lair before going in, because you never know what sort of beast is lurking inside.
