[請益] wire 跟 prey 在文中的意思

作者: norge (Boston)   2017-12-29 18:44:49
在一篇關於模特兒的文章中
Mr. Teller said that the only time he's porperly been star-struck
was meeting Will Ferrell. But for a man who regularly submits
himself to naked self-portraits in the most undignified positions,
Mr. Teller is unexpectedly prey to performance anxiety.
請問最後一行的 prey 在這裡要怎麼理解比較好呢?
另外
Recently Mr. Teller photographed the Bayern Munich football club.
He took his son on the trip to Germany so that he could meet his
sports heroes, and recalls them both lying in their respective beds
the night before unable to sleep: His son was wired with excitement,
he was anxious over whether he would get his shot.
倒數第二行的wire是什麼意思呢?
