agent

noun

agent ♦︎ spy ♦︎ mole ♦︎ double agentThese are all words for a person who tries to get secret information about another country, organization or person. 这些词均表示刺探情报的人。PATTERNS AND COLLOCATIONS 句型和搭配◆an agent / a spy / a double agent for sb◆a / an enemy / foreign / government agent / spy◆to work / act / recruit sb as an agent / a spy / a double agent■ agent ˈeɪdʒənt [countable] a person who is used by a government to find out secret information about other countries or governments （为政府工作的）特工，间谍◆He would have made a good secret agent－a James Bond type.他本可以成为一名出色的特工－詹姆斯•邦德那类的。◆She was operating as an undercover agent in London.她是密探，正在伦敦暗访。ⓘ When agent is used alone, without an adjective, the context must show that you are talking about sb who secretly gathers information. * agent单独使用、没有形容词修饰时，上下文语义必须能显示所提到的人是个密探◆He was convicted of acting as an agent for the Soviet Union.他因给苏联当间谍而被定罪。If it is not clear from the context, an adjective such as secret, undercover, intelligence, government, British or CIA is necessary. 如果上下文语义不明确，则必须使用secret、undercover、intelligence、government、British或CIA等修饰语。 ■ spy [countable] a person who tries to get secret information about another country, organization, or person, especially sb who is employed by a government or the police （尤指受雇于政府或警方的）特工，间谍，密探◆He became a government spy during the war.战争期间他为政府当间谍。◆Video spy cameras are being used in public places.公共场所启用了监控摄像系统。NOTE 辨析 Spy or agent? Spy covers a wider range of uses than agent or secret agent, as it can be used to talk about sb who is employed to get information about a person or organization, not just a country or government. Spy is also often used before another noun to describe things that are used to spy on people. * spy比agent和secret agent使用范围广，不仅可以指受雇搜集国家或政府情报的间谍，也可以指受雇搜集个人或机构信息的密探。spy还常用在另一名词前指用于监控的设备◆a spy satellite / camera / system / plane监控卫星／摄像机／系统／飞机A spy story/novel/thriller is a book or a film about spies. * spy story/novel/thriller是关于间谍的小说或电影。 ■ mole [countable] (especially journalism 尤用于新闻) a person who works within an organization and secretly passes important information to another organization or country （机构里的）间谍，内奸◆A police mole working inside the company had supplied them with the details.警方安插在公司内部的卧底为他们提供了详情。■ ˌdouble ˈagent [countable] a person who is a spy for a particular country, and also for another country which is an enemy of the first one 双重间谍◆They couldn't prove it, but he was almost certainly a double agent.他们虽不能证明，但基本肯定他是个双重间谍。
