深入解读
Pore 一词对不少小伙伴来说是个熟词，常作名词表示皮肤上的“毛孔”或植物的“气孔、孔隙”，这个含义源自希腊语 poros （小孔），比如：
- 她浑身上下每个毛孔都散发着性感。
She oozes sexuality from every pore.
每个毛孔都散发着性感，其实就是说非常性感，所以 from every pore 或 at every pore 的意思也就是喻指“极度、非常”，比如：
- 我见他非常暴躁。
I see him very chafe and fret at every pore.
另外， pore 同小站之前推过的 loom, faction, swallow, staple, founder, lurch 等一样，也是个同形异义词，它还有一个动词含义可能源自英语单词 peer ，表示“凝视、注视”，比如：
- 她凝视着孩子乌黑油亮的头发。
She pored on the child’s sleek black hair.
不过这个动词含义更多的是用 pore over sth 这个动词短语来表示“仔细阅读、认真钻研”，比如：
- 他的律师们正在审阅合同上的小号字。
His lawyers are poring over the small print in the contract.
值得注意的是， pore 的英式发音与 poor 相同，而美式发音与 poor 相近，在听的时候要注意区别。
