visual是一个雅思常考词汇，这个词的常用解释为a. 看的， 看得见的； 视觉的，这个词在很多英文原版小说中怎么应用呢，今天小编就带您了解一下。
在赫尔曼·梅尔维尔的《白鲸》里，有这样的句子出现：
-- But all in vain; those young Platonists have a notion that their vision is imperfect; they are short-sighted; what use, then, to strain the visual nerve?
-- Though, in these cases, the direction taken by any one whale be straight as a surveyor's parallel, and though the line of advance be strictly confined to its own unavoidable, straight wake, yet the arbitrary vein in which at these times he is said to swim, generally embraces some few miles in width (more or less, as the vein is presumed to expand or contract); but never exceeds the visual sweep from the whale-ship's mast-heads, when circumspectly gliding along this magic zone.
-- Moreover, while in most other animals that I can now think of, the eyes are so planted as imperceptibly to blend their visual power, so as to produce one picture and not two to the brain; the peculiar position of the whale's eyes, effectually divided as they are by many cubic feet of solid head, which towers between them like a great mountain separating two lakes in valleys; this, of course, must wholly separate the impressions which each independent organ imparts.
-- A curious and most puzzling question might be started concerning this visual matter as touching the Leviathan.
在戴维·赫伯特·劳伦斯的《恋爱中的女人》里，有这样的句子出现：
-- "Don't you see that it's not a question of visual appreciation in the least," he cried.
在儒勒·凡尔纳的《神秘岛》里，有这样的句子出现：
-- "Well, my boy, I have just constructed two similar right-angled triangles; the first, the smallest, has for its sides the perpendicular pole, the distance which separates the little stick from the foot of the pole and my visual ray for hypothenuse; the second has for its sides the perpendicular cliff, the height of which we wish to measure, the distance which separates the little stick from the bottom of the cliff, and my visual ray also forms its hypothenuse, which proves to be prolongation of that of the first triangle."
