Usage Note :

Do not confuse sympathetic and friendly. If you have a problem and someone is sympathetic or shows a sympathetic attitude, they show that they care and would like to help you. My boyfriend was very sympathetic. A person who is friendly or has a friendly attitude is kind and pleasant and behaves the way a friend would. ...a friendly woman who offered me cakes and tea. ...a pleasant, friendly smile. Note that people sometimes refer to characters in a play or novel who are easy to like as sympathetic. There were no sympathetic characters in my book. You usually say that real people are 'nice' or 'likable'.

不要混淆 sympathetic 和 friendly。sympathetic 形容人或人的态度时,表示关心并愿意帮助解决问题,例如,My boyfriend was very sympathetic (我的男友富有同情心)。friendly 形容人善良、令人愉快,像朋友一样:a friendly woman who offered me cakes and tea (请我吃茶点的友善妇人),a pleasant, friendly smile (令人愉快的友好的微笑)。注意 sympathetic 有时用来形容戏剧或小说中的人物讨人喜欢:There were no sympathetic characters in my book (我的书里没有招人喜欢的人物)。通常用 nice 或 likable 来形容生活中的人物。
