Rage may be hot or cold, red or white. * rage和fury都可能导致暴力行为，但通常fury比rage容易控制。rage可以用hot、cold、red或white等词修饰◆His face was red / white with rage.他气得满脸通红／脸色煞白。 Fury is only cold and white. * fury只能用cold或white修饰。 ■ outrage / /ˈaʊtreɪdʒ/ / [uncountable] a strong feeling of anger and shock 愤怒；愤慨◆The judge's remarks caused public outrage.裁判的话引起了公愤。◆She was filled with an overwhelming sense of moral outrage.她的心里充满了莫大的义愤。 see also outraged ⇨ furious , outrageous ⇨ outrageous ■ indignation / /ˌɪndɪgˈneɪʃən/ / [uncountable] a feeling of anger and shock caused by sth that you think is unfair or unreasonable 愤慨；愤怒；义愤◆Some benefits apply only to men, much to the indignation of working women.让职业女性愤愤不平的是有些福利只给男性。◆She was full of righteous indignation (= the belief that you are right to be angry even though other people do not agree).她义愤填膺。NOTE 辨析 Outrage or indignation?Both words include a feeling of surprise as well as anger, but outrage is stronger.
