  • larger than, as large as
  • 这两种表示比较的结构在意思上相同,表示2倍或3倍的时候多用as large as。例如:
    This picture is two times as large as that one.
    这幅画是那幅画的两倍大。
    This picture is five times larger than that one.
    这幅画是那幅画的5倍大。
  • large, big, great
  • 这三个词都可表示“大”,常可互换。例如“一棵大树”可说a big tree,也可以说a large tree,还可以说a great tree。它们的区别在于:
    1.big常用于体积、程度、分量; large常用于面积、范围、数量; 而great带有强烈的感情色彩,只可用于抽象事物。例如:
    The sun is a big ball of fire.太阳是个巨大的火球。
    There is a large hall in the middle of the school campus.校园中间有个大厅。
    The great animal crept slowly towards me.这庞然大物慢慢向我爬来。
    He has made great progress.他取得了很大进步。
    2.修饰人时,这三个词含义不同:big指长大或大人物, large指高大肥胖,而great则指(伟)大。例如:
    She is a big girl.她现在是个大姑娘了。
    He's the greatest man I've ever seen.他是我见过的最伟大的人物。
    She is a large woman.她是个高大的女人。
    3.在语气上, big比large通俗; great比large感情色彩浓。
    4.big和great常可用来加强语气,表示强烈的感情。它们可以和别的形容词连用,也可以彼此连用。例如:
    You great age!您真是高龄!
    You big fool!你真是个大傻瓜!
    Move your great big smelly feet!拿开你的臭脚!
    注意只能说great big,不能说big great。
    5.如将“大小”相对,可说big and little, large and small, great and little〔small〕。
  • big,large,great,grand
  • 这些形容词都含“大的”之意。
    big常用词,使用广泛,较口语化。多指体积、重量或容量等方面的“大”,有时也用于描写抽象之物。
    large普通用词,含义广,指体积、面积、容量、数量以及程度等方面的大,具体或抽象意义都可用。
    great普通用词,可指具体东西的“大”,但更常指事物的重要,人的行为、品格的伟大等,带一定的感情色彩。
    grand侧重指盛大、宏大的、有气派。
