用法讲解

v. (动词)
demolish, break, destroy, ruin
  • 这组词都含有“破坏”“毁坏”“消灭”的意思。其区别在于:
  • 1.destroy和ruin这两个词所表示的“毁坏”都含有“彻底”的意味,有时可互换。destroy强调“彻底性”; ruin强调不可修复。例如:
  • The rain has ruined〔destroyed〕 the crops.这雨把庄稼全毁了。
  • 2.break, destroy和demolish的主语可以是人,也可以是事物; 而ruin的主语多为天灾人祸等无形的力量。例如:
  • The windshield broke but did not shatter.挡风玻璃裂了,但没有碎。
  • All the intruders were destroyed.所有的入侵者都被歼灭了。
  • That street was demolished a few years ago.那条街于几年前拆除了。
  • She has a very real grievance against the hospital since the operation which ruined her health.自从她做过手术后,健康状况变坏,所以她确实对医院有怨言。
  • 3.break的宾语可以是有形物,也可以是非物质性的事物; destroy和demolish用于具体事物可指“高楼大厦”等; 用于抽象事物时destroy指“名誉”“声望”等, demolish则指某人的论点、论据等。ruin的宾语则多是美好珍贵的事物。例如:
  • His mother's heart will break if he leaves her.如果他离开母亲,她的心会碎的。
  • All his hopes were now destroyed.他的一切希望现在都破灭了。
  • We have demolished all her arguments and she has nothing more to say.我们推翻了她所有的论点,她无言以对。
  • The manuscript was ruined by long exposure in the cold damp cellar.手稿在地下室因长期受阴冷潮湿的破坏而无法辨认了。
  • 4.break可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词; destroy和demolish只用作及物动词; 而ruin多用作及物动词,偶尔可用作不及物动词。例如:

    • demolish, damage, ruin, spoil
  • 这组词都有“破坏,毁坏”的意思。其区别是：
  • 1.damage一般指“部分的破坏”,通常作“损坏”解,意味着损坏后价值减少或作用减小,有时可用于借喻中。
  • 2.demolish是正式用语,指由于巨大外力或急速、猛烈的动作而造成的破坏,其破坏力甚至达到粉碎的程度,往往只剩下一堆废墟或残骸。例如:
  • Many buildings had to be demolished before the new highway could be built.必须拆毁许多建筑物才能修建新公路。
  • The car was demolished in a collision.汽车撞坏了。
  • 3.ruin指把某件东西损害到不能再修理或使用的程度。现在多用于借喻中。例如:

  • Moths ruined good woolen clothes by eating holes in them.蛀虫在很好的毛衣上咬了许多洞,把衣服给毁了。
  • 4.spoil一般指某物受到严重破坏或损伤,基本上失去原有的价值、用途、美观,一般含有不可弥补的意味,作不及物动词用,表示(食物)变坏,腐烂变质等。例如:
