词义辨析

n. (名词)

in a hole, in holes, in the hole

• 这三个短语的意思不尽相同:in a hole的意思是“处于困境”; in holes的意思是“破了”; in the hole的意思是“经济困难,亏空”。例如:

• 他处境极为困难。

• 他的鞋子已经破烂不堪。

hole, cave, cavity

• 这组词都有“孔,洞,穴”的意思。其区别在于:hole可指正常的“洞,洞穴”,也可指不正常的“破洞,裂口”; hollow主要指凹地、洼地或任何物体的“凹陷部分”,如洞、穴、坑等; den特指“兽穴”,也指动物园中的“兽笼”,有时也可指“匪窝”等。例如:
