astonished 表示極度驚訝，程度比 surprised 強烈許多，通常用於描述因完全出乎意料或難以置信的事情而感到震驚。

astonished 和 shocked 都表示強烈驚訝，但 shocked 通常帶有更強烈的負面情緒，如不安、厭惡或創傷；astonished 則更側重於純粹的難以置信。

正式寫作注意：在學術或正式商業寫作中，建議使用更中性的詞彙如 surprised、amazed 或 taken aback，以保持客觀語氣。Astonished 在口語中帶有較強的主觀情感色彩，在正式文體中可能顯得過於強烈。

「astonished」通常與介系詞「at」連用，表示對某事感到驚訝，而非「by」。雖然「by」可用於被動語態，但表達驚訝的對象時習慣用「at」。
×It was an astonished result.
✓It was an astonishing result.
「astonished」描述人的感受（感到驚訝的），修飾事物或事件時應使用「astonishing」（令人驚訝的）。這是現在分詞與過去分詞作形容詞的常見混淆。
×I felt very astonished.
✓I was absolutely astonished.
「astonished」本身已表示強烈驚訝，通常不與「very」連用。加強語氣時，常用「absolutely」、「completely」、「utterly」等副詞。
×She astonished when she saw the price.
✓She was astonished when she saw the price.
「astonished」是形容詞，不是動詞。表達「感到驚訝」時，需與 be 動詞連用（be astonished）。動詞形式「astonish」較少用於描述當下感受。
×I am astonishing by his courage.
✓I am astonished by his courage.
主詞是「人」時，應使用「astonished」（感到驚訝的），表示主體的狀態。若使用「astonishing」，主詞應為「事物」，表示該事物令人驚訝。
