glare, flare, flash, gleam, glitter 这5个词做“闪光”解时区别1.glimpse主要是指“看、一瞥”而不是主要指“闪光”，glimpse指“闪光”已经是古语（Archaic【古语】A brief flash of light.闪光短暂的闪光）的用法，会出现在古诗和古散文中2.glare既可指“瞪眼”也可指“强光”3.sparkle即可指“（迸发）火星”也可指(酒等的)气泡4.glow即可指“强光”也可指“鲜艳夺目的颜色、红润的脸色”等，意义中只表示“闪光”的很少，你可以结合它们的引申义来记住这些单词，5.glare，被人“瞪眼”的时候就感觉仿佛被“强光”照射一般令人不自在，试比较：the glare of the footlights 舞台上耀眼的灯光；in the full glare of publicity 非常显眼，在众目睽睽之下。--------glare指太阳等发强光The sun glared out of the blue skyGleam 指月亮等发微光The moon gleamed on the lakeGlitter 指珠宝，星辰闪光Glow指（熔铁）发“灼光”Flash 闪光Flare闪耀，闪烁Blink 眨眼，闪亮Shine照耀，发光Spark 流露；显露A small amount of a feeling or quality that can be noticed someone’s expression or behaviourEg Meg’s eyes lacks their usual spark of humour His eyes sparked with anger. （他的双眼射出怒火闪闪发光”。）glisten, glimmer, flicker,glitter,sparkle,twinkle 具体用法如下（包括其他发光词）：1. dazzle: If a very bright light dazzles you, it stops you from seeing properly for a short time. Dazzle是刺眼、晃眼的意思，特别当光线照得人短时间看不清物体时使用，与下文其他的刺眼选手颇有区别。例：a deer dazzled by the headlights2. flash: to shine suddenly and brightly for a short time, or to make something shine in this way; If a light flashes or if you flash a light, it shines with asudden bright light, especially as quick, regular flashes of light. Flash是快速地发出强光，意为闪光，是闪光一族的普通意义，后文还有多个闪光词汇。例：Lightning flashed overhead.3. flicker: to burn or shine with an unsteady light that goes on and off quickly; If a light or flame flickers, it shines unsteadily. 例：The overhead lights flickered momentarily.Flicker也是闪光，但是与flash闪得不同。Flash是闪出强光，闪一下马上消失，再接着闪出强光，比如打雷之前的闪电就是典型的flash；flicker也是闪光门高手，可是它只能闪出不太强的光，并且极不稳定，闪光时忽明忽暗，译为闪烁、摇曳，这个词很浪漫，总令人想到Casablanca中迷人的汽车旅馆和那对恋人一起试过的那个long, hot summers night.4. glare: to shine with a very strong bright light which hurts your eyes; If the sun or a light glares, it shines with a very bright light which is difficult to look at; 这个已经不是闪光门弟子了，这是发出非常耀眼的光芒，让眼睛产生不适，且不适效果大大高于dazzle，有可能出现较长时间的失明。比如氧焊时，如果不戴眼罩看了那种强烈的白光后，好一会儿看不见东西，那就是一种glaring light, 比
