alive, living
这两个词都表示“活着的”、“有生命的”(having life)意思,词义相同,但用法有所不同.
Alive是表语形容词,放在verb“to be”之后,不能放在它所说明的名词之前.例如我们只可以说 The old man is still alive.
Living既可用作表语形容词,又可用作定语形容词,故可放在它所修饰的名词之前.
我们既可以说:
English is a living language.
也可以说:
Is his father still living?
就使用场合而言,alive大都用于人,有时用作比喻或强调时也用于物.例如:
Given the chance to sing on stage,he is very much alive.
有机会在台上唱歌,他显得很活跃.
The bazaar was all alive by the time we arrived.
我们到达时,墟市非常热闹.
Living则人物共用(请参阅上面两例).
就词性而言,alive只能用作形容词,不能作名词;living既可作形容词,又可作名词.例:
Many people were burnt alive in the conflagration that happened in a multi-storeyed building.
在一幢多层大厦内发生的大火中,很多人被活活烧死.
Our living standards are rising steadily.
我们的生活水平在不断提高.
Those who enjoy a good living seldom understand the suffering of the poor.
过着美好生活的人一般都不明白穷人所受之苦.
在某些场合下,living和alive表示的涵义并不相同,尽管它们都用作表语.例如:
At last we found him in a trap in the forest,still living but not alive.
通过对比,可以看出,living之意是“活的”;alive 之意是“有气息的”.这里的not alive表示人虽然还活着,但已“气息奄奄”、“没有生气”了.
Alive有时尚可表示“alert”“感觉到的”、“敏感的”涵义.如:
He is alive to the imminent danger.
他感觉到那迫在眉睫的危险.
