However, some actors can astonish us with the deep feelings they can inspire in us for a character they are playing.Inspire(vt) sth in sb - sb with sth :to fill sb with thoughts,feelings or aims 激励或鼓舞某人。The father d his son with confidence.= The father d confidence in his son.这个句子中有两个定语从句：they can inspire in us修饰the deep feelings, they are playing 修饰a character。不管怎样，有些演员能用他们所演的角色在我们身上鼓动起深深的感情来震撼我们。cut off: to separate from others; to stop suddenly;切断；隔离；突然中止Eg: They cut off our food supply.cut in插嘴 cut out 剪除；删除cut up切碎 cut through刺穿(名题赏析）He was in hospital for six months.
