詞義辨析

n. (名詞)
quarter, district, section, tract
  • 這組詞都有“地區”“區域”的意思。其區別是:
  • district通常指行政上的區域,又指具有顯著特色的地方; section指一個國家或城市自然形成的地區; quarter一般指一個城市中的具有同一性的地區,尤指特殊一層人所居住的區域; tract指大片的土地、地域、地帶或住房開發區。例如:
  • The city has a busy Chinese quarter.這個城市有個熱鬧的華人區。
  • The famous man's mail came from the corners of the globe.那位名人的信件來自世界各地。
  • Large tracts of sandy land were reclaimed.大片大片的沙質荒地被開墾出來了。

  • 下面四句表達的意思相同:
  • I bought it for a quarter of the price.
  • I bought it for quarter of the price.

  • I bought it for quarter the price.
  • 我是以1/4的價格買的。
  • v. (動詞)
    quarter on, quarter with
  • 這兩個短語有時都可譯為“同…一起住”。其區別是:
  • quarter on指“住到(某人)那里”, on的賓語是原本就住在那里的; 而with的賓語原本并不住在那里,而是與主語一同住到那里去的。
  • district,region,area,section,zone,belt,quarter,neighbourhood
  • 這些名詞均有“地區”之意。
  • district多指由政府等機構出于行政管理等目的而明確劃分的地區。
  • region常指地球上、大氣中具有自然分界線的區域,特指按照氣候、人體或其他特征鮮明、自成一體的地區。

  • section指城市、國家或天然界線形成的地區。
  • zone科技用詞,指圓形或弧形地帶,尤指地圖上按溫度劃分的五個地帶。用作一般意義時,也可指具有某種特征的其它地區。
  • belt從本義“帶,帶狀物”引申而指任何廣闊的長條地帶,也可指種植某種作物的地區。
  • quarter指城市里具有相同性質或獨特風味的地區,比section范圍小,但劃分更精確。
  • neighbourhood指比section的劃定更清楚,范圍更小。具體指城市中的住宅區,也可指附近一帶。
  • 常見錯誤

    n. (名詞)
      我們必須在黃昏前找到住處。

      We must find a quarter before nightfall.

      We must find quarters before nightfall.

      quarter作“住處”“宿舍”解時要用復數形式。

      他們等了一刻鐘,但是沒看見一輛公共汽車。

      They waited for a quarter, but no bus came in sight.

      They waited for a quarter of an hour, but no bus came in sight.

      當quarter表示時間“一刻”,不能只說a quarter,須接介詞of,應該說a quarter of an hour。

      這個方案遭到了各方面的批評。

      The scheme met with criticisms from all quarter.

      The scheme met with criticisms from all quarters.

      quarter作“方面”解時是可數名詞,表示“各方面”應說all quarters。

      他不愿饒恕他的敵人。

      He refused to give quarters to his foe.

      He refused to give quarter to his foe.

      quarter作“寬恕、饒恕”解是不可數名詞,沒有復數形式。

    詞源解說

    • ☆ 1300年左右進入英語,直接源自古法語的quartier;最初源自古典拉丁語的quartarius,意為第四部分。
