这三个词共同的意思是“地球,世界”。它们的区别是:
earth是区别于其他星球或天堂、地狱而言的; globe主要强调地球的形状是圆形的。例如:
There is no place on the globe where the name of Shakespeare is unknown.地球上没有一个角落不知道莎士比亚这个名字的。
world则强调全体人类或世事。例如:
All the world hopes the conference will be successful.全世界都希望会谈能取得成功。
My holiday did my health a world of good.
My holiday did my health the world of good.
My holiday did my health worlds of good.
我的假期对我的健康有很大的益处。
He is a very well-meaning person, but he is out of this world.
他的用意相当好,可就是不切合实际。
The performance was simply out of this world.
那场演出简直再好不过了。
谐音记忆法
谐音:我讴的(我用这些单词,叙述了我的内心世界),所以引申为词义:世界;世事
单词解说
world的基本意思是“世界,天下”,常与介词in连用,其前面可加不定冠词a。world也可指“天体,星球”,尤指可能有生物的星球,作这两种意思解时,可用作可数名词,也可用作不可数名词。world可表示“范围,…界”;也可表示“全世界的人,人类,公众,群众”,这时其前须加定冠词the;还可表示“人世生活,世面,眼界,世俗”。作以上解时,常用作单数形式。world还可作“大量,无数”解。
