  • 词义辨析

    disgrace, degrade, humble

    这组词都有“使丢脸”“使受耻辱”的意思。它们之间的区别是:
    1.degrade多指因不道德的习惯或行为而丢脸; disgrace指因使人丢脸的、不光彩的行为而丢脸; humble仅指一种敬畏或卑微的心理状态。
    2.degrade指人格受损; disgrace指丧失体面。试比较以下三个句子:
    I degraded myself by stealing.
    我因偷窃而丢脸。
    The contestant did not disgrace her mother- land.
    该选手没有给祖国丢脸。
    I can't see why I should humble myself before others.
    我想不通为什么我在别人面前自卑。

    disgrace, shame

    这两个词都含有“使羞耻、羞愧”“使丢脸”的意思。它们的区别是:

    He disgraced himself last night by drinking too much.他昨晚喝酒太多出了丑。
    The president's former adviser is now in disgrace.总统的前顾问现已失宠。
