一.表主动和被动的不同。

有些由动词词根派生而来的形容词与该形容词所修饰的词之间存在这逻辑上的主动或被动关系,其中以-able,-ible,和-ed后缀结尾的形容词往往含有被动意味,而以-ful,-ous,或-tive结尾的往往含有主动意味。

例如:It’s not respectable to get drunk in the street.在大街上喝的醉醺醺的是有失体统的。

Respecting常用作介词,表示“关于,,,,在,,,方面”之意。

例如:Problems respecting air pollution in cities should be considered seriously.关于城市空气污染问题应给与认真考虑。

Respective表示“各自的,分别的”的意思。

Go to your respective places.各就各位。

2.imaginative 与imaginable(imaginary)imaginative 意思是“富于想象力的”,和他所修饰的人之间含有主动的关系。

例如:teachers like imaginative children.老师喜欢富有想象力的孩子。

Imaginable意思是“可想象的”,还有可以被想象出来的意思,即被动意味。

托福考试中容易用混的词(2)

托福考试中容易用混的词(2)

托福考试中容易用混的词(2)2015年托福考试中容易用混的词Mr. Smith is a lawyer, but Mr. Thompson is not my attorney.counsel是指给当事人出主意并代当事人在法庭说话的法律顾问或辩护律师,在法庭上,法官称呼参与审讯的律师也用counsel。

由于lawyer一词使用太多,加上西方社会对律师时有讥讽和诽闻,这个词多少带有贬义,因此律师一般自称attorney。

实际上这三个词经常可以互换。

avenge, revengeavenge更多地含有“伸张正义”的意义revenge侧重“报复”用avenge时,主语往往不是受害者;受害者或具体事件作为avenge的宾语。

revenge,主语通常是受害者本人,因此后可接反身代词,He revenged himself.banquet, feast从词源上看,banquet原意是bench(长凳),古时西方人同坐在长凳上吃喝就是“宴会”了,出席者一般有一定的身份,因而banquet带有正式和庄重的意味。

因此banquet多用于宴请外国首脑或较正式的公务、商务宴请。

feast则用于娱乐性的宴请,或家宴。

base, basis, foundationbase做名词时意为“底部”、“底座”等,多用于具体事物。

basis一般用于抽象事物。

base也可用于抽象事物,如:the base of a theory(理论基础),这时它和basis区别不大,然而basis在现代英语中用得越来越广泛。

尤以on a .. basis为甚:on a countract basis (合同制)foundation指具体事物时和base相似,但一般指高大建筑物的'基础;用于指抽象事物时与basis相似。

无论指哪一种,foundation 均给人以坚实和牢固的感觉。

bona fide, bona fidesbona fide: adv. adj. in good faithbona-fide enquiries 诚意的询问bona fides: n. good faithHis bona fides is beyond dou我是远方的一颗尘埃capital ,capitolcapital: the seat of government 首都、首府capitol: the buliding in which the government sits 政府大楼the Capitol --- 美国国会大厦chef , cookchef 来自法语,似乎身价更高一些,多指大酒楼的厨师cook 源于古英语,多指一般的厨师或炊事人员childish , childlikechildish 孩子气的,指孩子不如人意的地方,如不懂事、幼稚、傻气等,带有贬义childlike 孩子般的,多指孩子讨人喜欢的方面,如天真、纯洁、真诚等company , firm根据英美企业法,firm只是指partnership(合伙公司)或unincorporatedbusiness(非责任有限公司),company则可指corporation(责任有限公司)。
