短释义
Scrutiny comes from the Latin scrutari, which means “to search,” but which originally meant, “to sort trash.” When you turn in a draft of your essay, you are subjecting it to your teacher’s scrutiny — and there’s a good chance that she’ll find some sentences that can be “trashed” as well as sections that could be improved.
审查是指您非常仔细地观察某件事,例如检查测试中是否有错误。审视也可以是一种强烈的目光,就像当你的母亲看着你时——试图判断你是否在撒谎。

长释义
Scrutiny comes from the Latin scrutari, which means “to search,” but which originally meant, “to sort trash.” When you turn in a draft of your essay, you are subjecting it to your teacher’s scrutiny — and there’s a good chance that she’ll find some sentences that can be “trashed” as well as sections that could be improved.
审查来自拉丁语 scrutari,意思是“搜索”,但最初的意思是“对垃圾进行分类”。当你提交论文草稿时,你正在接受老师的审查——她很有可能会发现一些可以被“废弃”的句子以及可以改进的部分。

词源
scrutiny (n.)early 15c., “the formal enumerating of the votes in an election to an office or dignity” (according to OED, “Now chiefly in Canon Law”), from Late Latin scrutinium “a search, inquiry” (in Medieval Latin, “a mode of election by ballot”), from Latin scrutari “to examine, investigate, search” (from PIE root *skreu- “to cut; cutting tool;” see shred (n.)). The meaning “close investigation or examination” is recorded from c. 1600.Perhaps the original notion of the Latin word is “to search among rubbish,” via scruta (plural) “trash, rags, rubbish” (“shreds”); or the original sense might be “to cut into, scratch.”Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
scrutiny (n.)early 15c.,“正式枚举选举职位或尊严的选票”(根据《牛津英语词典》,“现在主要在教会法中”),源自晚期拉丁语 scrutinium“搜索、调查”(在中世纪拉丁语中,“通过选票进行选举的一种方式”),源自拉丁语 scrutari“检查、调查、搜索”(来自 PIE 词根 *skreu-“切割;切割工具;”参见 shred (n.))。 “仔细调查或检查”的含义记录自c。 1600.也许拉丁语单词的原始概念是“在垃圾中搜索”,通过scruta(复数)“垃圾,破布,垃圾”(“碎片”);或者原义可能是“切入、刮擦”。相关条目及更多
