二、詞義辨析:
entire,whole,complete,full,total,gross,all
這些形容詞都表示“完整的,全部的,整個的”之意。 entire除了有whole的意思外,還強調(diào)既不能加一個也不減少一個的含義。 whole比entire更普通,強調(diào)每個組成部分都包括在內(nèi),無一漏掉或舍去。 complete強調(diào)事物在內(nèi)容、程度、或數(shù)量方面已完整,已達標準。 full側(cè)重指內(nèi)容,含有能包括所有的充足內(nèi)容的意味。 total與complete用法相近,但強調(diào)總量。 gross側(cè)重指未打折扣,未除去成本或皮重等與凈重、凈數(shù)相對。 all有時可與whole,entire和total換用。
