extremely interesting and absorbing
Very, very interesting and making you want to keep watching, listening, or thinking about it.
用法模式：
to find [something] fascinating
常见错误：
Learners often confuse "fascinating" with "fascinated". Use "fascinating" to describe the thing (a fascinating book), and "fascinated" to describe the person (I am fascinated by this book). Another mistake is using "fascinating" too often where "interesting" is enough; "fascinating" is stronger and should be kept for things that are especially interesting.

boring (Describes something that does not hold your attention at all, the opposite of "fascinating".)
|

very attractive or charming
Very attractive or special, so that you really want to look at or know more about someone or something.
用法模式：
[someone/something] is fascinating
常见错误：
Learners sometimes use "fascinating" only for ideas or facts and forget it can describe people or places too (a fascinating person, a fascinating city). Also, when describing how a person feels attracted, remember to say "I am fascinated by her" (feeling) versus "She is fascinating" (her quality).

charming (Focuses more on pleasant, friendly, or sweet qualities that attract you.)
|
intriguing (Suggests something or someone is mysterious and makes you curious, not always obviously attractive.)
|
alluring (Often suggests a strong, sometimes sensual or glamorous attraction.)

enchanting (Has a more romantic or fairy-tale feel, as if someone or something has a magical charm.)
反义词
unattractive (Directly states that a person or thing does not look or seem appealing.)
|
dull (Suggests that a person, place, or lifestyle feels flat and not interesting or attractive.)
|
off-putting (Means something actually pushes you away or makes you not want to get closer, instead of drawing you in.)
