二、同、近义词辨析

1.likely, possible 与probable

(1)三者均表可能性,但意思有别。possible指客观上有可能性,但往往含有希望很小的意味;probable比possible可能性稍大,有“较为可能、大概”,指有实际依据;likely是从外表迹象判断有可能发生的事。 eg:

It’s possible, though not probable, that he will come tomorrow.

他明天可能来,但也不一定准来。

She is likely to ring me tonight. 今晚她很可能给我来电话。

(2)possible 不能用人作主语。possible 常用于下列句型:

It is possible to do sth. It is possible for sb. to do sth.

It is possible that … eg:

Is it possible to say so?可能这样说吗?

It is possible for me to do it. 我可能做那件事。

(3)probable 也不能用人作主语。一般只用于下面句型中:

It is probable that … eg:

It is probable that he will come. 他很可能要来。

(4)likely 既可用人作主语,也可用物作主语。通可用于“It is likely that …”句型中。 eg:

He is likely to come. = It is likely that he will come.

他可能要来。但不能说:It is likely for him to come.

(5)impossible, improbable, unlikely 用法与上述类似。

2.catch, grasp, seize 与snatch

catch是普通用语,用“设法抓住,捉住”的意思; grasp表示牢牢地“抓住”;seize指“突然用力抓住使不逃脱”;snatch 表示迅速的拉扯动作、出其不意地“抓取”。 eg:

The police caught the thief as he ran. 小偷逃跑时被警察抓住了。

He grasped his gun and rushed out. 他抓起枪就冲了出去。

He seized the gun from the enemy soldier. 他从敌人士兵手中夺过了枪。

3. When I got my master’s degree, I wanted to return home but couldn’t find a company where I could use what I had learnt. 当我获得硕士学位时,我想回到家乡,可是我没能找到学有所用的公司。
