(1) absent: adj. 心不在焉的; 漫不经心的
*be absent from: 不在......地方;缺席

马丽这次将会失败，因为她太粗心了。
fail in sth. 表示“在某方面失败”。
e.g. I failed in many things I tried last night.
昨晚我的许多尝试都失败了。
②fail to do sth.表示“未能做到某事”。
e.g. She failed to catch the early school bus today.
她今天没能赶上早班校车。

他终于去看了那部电影。
辨析： finally, at last 与 in the end
finally: “最后”,只指一系列事物或论点的顺序,一般不带 感彩。
at last:有时可与finally互换，但往往用于一番拖延和曲折之后，因而带有较浓厚的感彩，如“不耐烦、不放心、不如愿”等。
in the end:“终于”可用于预测未来，finally和at last不能。
He tried many times, but finally failed.
他试验了很多次，最后还是失败了。
At last I passed the math test. 我终于通过了数学考试。
