听君一席话，胜读十年书

1.elder 与elderly

两者都为“年老的”，但有细微的差别。 elderly 指中年与暮年之间的年龄，表示人已过中年，因此，这词常用来代替 old。如：an elderly gentleman. 一位年长的绅士。elder指年龄稍长者，适用于家庭的兄弟姐妹之间。如： Tom is the elder of the two. 汤姆是两个孩子中较大的一个。

2.precious 和 expensive

expensive 表示“昂贵的”。如：the drink was cheap , but the food was very expensive . 饮料很便宜，但食物很贵。 precious 表示“珍贵的，宝贵的”。如：the children are precious to me . 孩子们对我来说很重要。

3.regret to do 和 regret doing

egret doing 表示“做了某事而感到遗憾或后悔”，v-ing 动作发生在regret 之前。如：i regretted missing the train. 我为没有赶上火车而感到很懊恼。 regret to do 指“当时或现在遗憾地做什么”。如：i regret to tell you that we can't stay here any longer. 我遗憾地告诉你，我们不能在这儿多呆了。

4.day by day 和 day after day

两词组意思很近，但有区别：day by day 只用作状语，表示“一天天地”, 有逐渐转变的意思。如：day by day she seems to grow a little taller.她似乎一天天地长高了。 day after day 可作主语，宾语等，亦可作状语，表示“一天又一天”，强调动作的重复，表示时间的长久。如： we do the same work day after day. 每天我们做着同样的事情。/ day after day went by , and i still don't receive her letter. 一天天过去了，我还是没有收到她的来信。

5.damp 与 wet

两者都表示“潮湿的”，但有细微差别。wet 指曾浸泡在液体中或布满了液体的东西，或指多雨的天气。如： it's a wet day. 今天是一个雨天。/ wet clothes 湿衣服。 damp 指未湿透但潮湿的东西。 the damp in the air makes me uncomfortable. 潮湿的空气使我感到不舒服。

6.hunger 与 starvation

两词都表“饥饿”。 hunger 指人对食物的迫切要求，是一种正常的生理现象。如： hunger is the best sauce. 肚子饿了吃什么都香。而 starvation 指长时间缺乏食物引起痛苦，与 hunger 相比是不正常的生理现象，而是人为的灾难。如： the old man died of starvation. 那个老人活活饿死了。

7.boring 与 dull , tiresome

三词都为“令人厌烦的”，但有区别：boring 概念最广，尤指引起人厌倦、枯燥的谈话文章，也指令人生厌的人。 如：the talk was very long and boring. 这篇谈话冗长，毫无趣味。 dull 与 boring 极为相近，也指因呆板或缺乏趣味性而令人感到厌倦。如： a dull book 一本枯燥的书。 tiresome主指单调沉闷而产生疲倦厌烦。如：it's tiresome to be funny for a whole evening整晚上都逗笑取乐是很疲劳的。

8.gift 与 present

两词都为“礼物”，但有细微的差别。 gift 既指免费捐赠给团体或机构的物品，也指亲友间互赠礼品。如： a gift to the museum一件捐给博物馆的赠品。present 指亲友间互赠, 如： here is a little present for you. 这儿有你一份小小的礼物。

9.handsome 与 beautiful

两词都表“美丽”，但有区别。 beautiful 指优美和谐、高贵，多形容妇女、地方、事物，很少用来形容男子。如： a beautiful woman 一位美丽的妇女 / a beautiful scene美景。而 handsome 用于形容男人，表示英俊潇洒。如： he is a tall and handsome man. 他是一个高大英俊的男人。

10.country 与 nation

country 表示国家，包括领土和人民，着重指疆土。该词概念极为广泛，可用于各种文体，有时作“祖国”讲，带感情色彩。如：china is a great country with a long history .中国是一个历史悠久的伟大国家。/ his fathers country was france. 他父亲的祖国是法国。/ after many years abroad,he wanted to return home to his country. 在国外呆了多年以后，他想回到自己的祖国去。country 来源于拉丁文contra，是对立的意思，即某地区与其他地区极不相同从而独立存在。nation指在某一国土上定居的人民，以及代表他们的独立政权。nation 来源于拉丁文nasci,意思是出生，nation原指具有相同血源的民族，因此它强调一个国家中的人民，概念较country 狭窄。如: the chinese nation 中华民族。the whole nation rose to resist aggression. 全民奋起抗击侵略。/ the president spoke on radio to the nation. 总统通过广播向全国人民讲话。 但在国际交往正式场合下，ation 语体庄重，较country 用得多。如：the united nations 联合国/ a most favoured nation 最惠国 / the law of nations 国际公法
