长释义：
Originally, to spurn was to kick away. Though it’s not used in that context so often anymore, being spurned still feels like a kick in the gut. You can reject someone kindly, or let them down easily, but you can’t spurn someone with anything but malice.
本来，拒绝就是踢开。尽管它不再经常在这种情况下使用，但被拒绝仍然感觉像是在肠子上踢。你可以善意地拒绝一个人，也可以轻易地让他们失望，但除了恶意，你不能拒绝一个人。
