  • 词义辨析
  • depress, oppress, weigh
  • 这组词都可表示“对某物或某人施加压力或重负,令其在重压下倒塌或沮丧”。它们的区别是:
    1.weigh在结果或降低的程度上比depress弱,但更侧重困难或负重,常和down, on或upon连用。
    2.depress指以压力或超重使某物下降,也指因身体原因或精神原因而颓唐,侧重于体力减少或某器官功能减弱,指其他事物时,侧重活动力减少。例如:
    The little girl depressed the button.这个小女孩按下按钮。
    Bad weather depresses me.坏天气使我感到郁闷。
    His defeat in the last cross-country race depressed him.他在上一次越野赛中的失败使他感到沮丧。
    3.oppress即像weigh一样强调重负,也像 depress一样强调结果。
