n. (名词)
save a day, save the day
  • save a day的意思是“省了一天的时间”, save the day的意思则是“反败为胜,转危为安”。例如:
  • We saved a day by taking a plane there.我们乘飞机去那里,因而节省了一天的时间。
  • The team was behind, but at the last minute Tom saved the day with a touchdown.这支球队一直落后,然而在最后的时刻汤姆一次底线得分使球队反败为胜。
  • by day, by the day
  • 前者意思是“在白天”; 而后者意思是“按日计算”。例如:
  • We travelled by day and stayed at inns at night.我们白天旅行,晚上住在客栈。
  • In some countries, most of the workers get their pay by the day.在某些国家里,大部分工人是按日计酬的。
  • of a day, of the day
  • 前者意思是“短促”; 而后者意思是“当时,当代”。例如:
  • It is nothing than a stuff of a day.这无非是昙花一现而已。
  • It was a twice-told tale of the day.这便是当时传诵一时的老话题。
  • day after day, day by day
  • 这两个短语意义和用法都不相同。其区别是:
  • 1.day by day在句中用作副词,作状语; 而day after day除用作状语外,还可用作主语、宾语等。
  • 2.day after day的意思是“每天,天天”,表示动作的重复和时间的长久,强调连续性; 而day by day含有“逐渐转变”的意味,常和turn, grow, change等含有转变意义的动词连用。
  • every day, daily
  • 两者都可作“每天”解。但两者所表达的意境色彩不全一样:
  • We do not have lessons every day.
  • 我们不是天天都有课。
  • We do not have lessons daily.
  • 我们每天都没有课。
  • day, date
  • 这两个词都有“日,天”的意思。其区别在于:
  • 1.date指某种事发生的“日期”,不一定只指某一天,可以统指年、月、日,一般用单数; day指一周中的“某一天,一整天”等,意为“白天,日子”,又专指星期几。例如:
  • Has the date for the meeting fixed?开会的日期决定了没有?
  • The first day of a week is Sunday.一个星期的第一天是星期天。
  • 2.在询问“某天是什么日子”时,两词都可用,但意义不同, date问的是“日期”,而day问的是“星期几”。例如:
  • What day is it today?
  • 今天是星期几?
  • What is the date today?
  • 今天是几号?
  • day, festival, holiday, leave, vacation
  • 这五个词都有“假日”的意思。其区别在于:holiday来源于宗教的节日、假日,是普通用词,多用于英式英语中,指的是一个人在一年中不干工作的那段时间,也可用来表示一两天的短假期; day表示法定节日,多用于专有名词中; festival指民俗或宗教节日,并含有定期欢度的意味; leave指政府工作人员或军人的假期; vacation用于大学停课放假长达多周的假日或法院停止开庭时间,在美式英语中,凡是较长时间的休假都可用这个词。例如:
  • August and September are the months of the year during which most English people take their holidays.一年中8、9两个月是大多数英国人休假的月份。
  • We celebrate National Day every year.我们每年都庆祝国庆节。
  • Christmas is one of the festivals of the Christian church.圣诞节是基督教的节日之一。
  • The soldiers will go home on leave once every two years.士兵们每两年回家休假一次。
  • Three vacations occur in the course of the year, viz, two weeks at Christmas, ten days at Easter and the usual two months in summer.一年中有三个假期,即圣诞节两周,复活节十天以及通常的两个月暑假。
  • date,day
  • 这两个名词均有“日”之意。
  • date指具体的年、月、日,或指年代、时代。
  • day泛指任何一天,或指含有“一昼夜”意义的一天,也可指工作日。可用复数表时代、时期。
