记忆方法
联想:从我比说明抽象出明显的,不含蓄的。一定要很明显的说出来,所以obvious就是明显的意思。
所以引申为明显的、显然的。
双解例句
小知识
Something obvious is plain to see and easily understandable. It was obvious that you didn't enjoy your meal because I found it rolled in a napkin and shoved under the rug.
There's nothing vague about the adjective obvious — it's right there in front of your eyes! It describes something that's easy to figure out or the most straightforward option. If someone states the obvious, you're likely to respond with a sarcastic “No duh!” or “Thanks Sherlock.” If obvious isn't the obvious word of choice, you can try a synonym such as “evident” or “apparent.”

evident:指根据事实成为显然的。
clear:普通用词,侧重清楚明白。
plain:普通用词,含义与clear很接近,可通用,但plain着重简单明了,不复杂。
