chimney, funnel
这两个词共同的意思是“烟囱”。它们的区别是：
1.funnel可指轮船、机车等的“烟囱”,也可指“漏斗”“漏斗状物”。例如:
Some yellow smoke came out of the funnel of the ship on the sea.海上轮船的烟囱里冒出了阵阵黄烟。
chimney指房子的“烟囱”或烟囱高出屋顶的部分,也可指煤油灯、蜡烛等的玻璃灯罩、火山的喷烟口、岩石间可供攀登的管状裂口或裂缝等。
2.funnel可用于比喻,指沟通事物之间的“渠道”,而chimney无此义。例如:
That is a good funnel of information to that company.那是那家公司的一个很好的信息渠道。
The tunnel would be well - ventilated if tall chimneys were built above sea - level.
