用法筆記
Commonly used with verbs of showing, offering, or describing (display, wave, describe, offer, present), and also frequently before adjectives (temptingly low, temptingly sweet, temptingly generous) where it acts as an intensifier, like 'very' but with a sense of appeal. The adverb usually comes after the verb, at the end of the clause, or directly before the adjective it modifies.
