  • 词义辨析
  • right, correct
  • 这两个词意思相同,都表示“正确”,多数情况下可互换。例如:
    Your answer is right〔correct〕.你的答案是正确的。它们的区别是:
    1.correct含有按标准或规则往往是“正确”的意味; 而right含有按道德规范往往是“正确”的意味。例如:
    This sentence is grammatically correct but idiomatically wrong.这句话从语法上讲是对的,但不符合习惯用法。
    I don't think it's right to leave children alone in a house.我认为把小孩独自留在房里是不对的。
    2.right有“正常的”“正义的”“井井有条的”等意思,而correct没有。例如:
    He invited the right persons.他邀请了该请的客人。
  • 下面各句意思相同:
  • She was right to refuse.
    It was right of her to refuse.
    It was right for her to refuse.
    It was right that she should refuse.
    她拒绝是正确的。
  • right, rightly
  • 这两个词在意思上基本相同。它们的区别是:
    1.在修饰全句时要用rightly而不用right。例如:
    Quite rightly,Fannie referred the complaint to the director.芬尼把一肚子苦水向主任倾诉这是完全正确的。
    2.如果修饰的是动词,两者都可以使用,但right要放在动词之后,而rightly多放在动词之前。例如:
    If I remember right,Robert died two years ago.要是我没记错的话,罗伯特两年前就去世了。
    These prisoners were rightly punished for their crimes.这些犯人罪有应得。
    3.修饰介词短语时要用right,不用rightly。例如:
    The nail went right through the plank.钉子恰好钉穿木板。
    4.修饰另一个形容词或副词,要用right,不用rightly。而且,这样使用时, right要放在另一个副词之前。例如:
    The policeman has knocked the blackguard right out.民警已把这个坏蛋打倒在地。
    5.right作为副词,可以用在介词短语之前,意思是“正好”, rightly不能这样用。例如:
    The snowball hit him right on the nose.雪球正好打在他鼻子上。
  • right away, at once, directly, immediately, instantly, presently
  • 这组词(组)共同的意思是“立即”“马上”。它们的区别在于:
    1.at once主要指动作迅速,但中间多有一段距离,且at once比immediately意味更强。例如:
    I'm leaving for Rome at once.我马上去罗马。
    He gave orders for the work to be started at once.他下令立即开始那项工作。
    2.immediately侧重指时间“紧接着”。例如:
    I came immediately after I'd eaten.吃过饭我立即就来了。
    Please close your books immediately and answer these questions.请立即合上书,回答这些问题。
    I left immediately when the clock struck twelve.钟刚打12点我就离去了。
    3.right away经常出现在美式英语中。例如:
    I'll do it right away.我立即去办。
    He had written down a list of things to do right away.他已写下须立即做的事情。
    Don't expect them to approve of the design right away.不能期望他们马上批准这项设计。
    4.instantly也是指动作迅速,但它更强调的是同时发生,中间有很短的距离或无距离。例如:
    The electrician went instantly in answer to the phone call.电工师傅一接到电话马上就去了。
    He was killed instantly in a car accident.在车祸中,他当场死亡。
    5.directly强调“直接地”,多与“迂回绕过”相对。例如:
    Whether he sailed directly across the bay or coasted round it is uncertain.他是径直驶过海湾,还是沿海岸迂回绕过的,现在还无法确知。
    6.presently强调过一会再去做某事。例如:
    I will do the dishes presently, but I want to finish the story first.我过一会去洗碟子,不过我想得先看完这篇故事。
  • 下面各组中两个短语意思不同:
  • on the right 在右边
    on one's right 在某人的右边
    to the right 向右边
    to the right of 朝…的右方
    on the right 在右边
    to the right 向右边
  • 下面两句意思相同:
  • He knows the right from the wrong.
    He knows right from wrong.
    他知道对错。
  • accurate,exact,precise,right,true,correct
  • 这些形容词都含“准确的,正确的”之意。
    accurate指通过谨慎的努力达到符合事实或实际,侧重不同程度的准确性,与事实无出入。
    exact着重在质与量方面的准确,语气比accurate强。
    precise侧重极端准确,更强调细节的精确无误。
    right使用广泛,可与这些词中的correct换用,但常暗示道德、理解、行动等方面的正确。
    true暗指绝对准确,尤指复制品与原件丝毫不差。
    correct最常用词,主要指按一定标准或规则来衡量,没有谬误和差错或无缺点错误。
  • right,privilege
  • 这两个名词都含“权利”之意。
    right普通用词,指某人或某物拥有符合法律、道义或道德的权利。
    privilege指特许或恩施的权利,也指一般人或物所没有的有利条件。
  • very,right,just
  • 三者都含有“正好;就是”之意。
    very是形容词,用来修饰名词,位于the, this,my等限定词后。
    right作副词,用来修饰谓语(常为动词be)或作状语的介词短语等,须放在the, this,my等限定词之前。
    just作副词与right类似。
