  • 词义辨析

    reserve, book

    book和reserve都表示“预订(车〔船票,戏院〕等)”,有时两者可通用,但列车上的“老弱病残者”座位不能用book,而只能用reserve。例如:
    Some seats on train are reserved for the old and handicapped.列车上有些座位是留给老人和残疾人的。

    reserve, keep, preserve, retain

    这组词都有“保存”“保留”或“保持”的意思。它们的区别在于:
    1.keep指把某一事物置于自己的权力或管理之下; retain和reserve同义,均指继续“保持”或“保存”某事物, retain是较为正式的用语,还可指记住某事; preserve指把某物“收藏”或“保存”好。
    2.retain含有不失去的意味; reserve则强调继续保持而不致失去; preserve强调防止破坏作用,要采取措施使某物完好无损或质量不变。例如:
    His business has been taken over by a big corporation, but he still retains some control over it.他的商店被一家大公司接管了,但他仍保留部分控制权。
    You'd better reserve your strength for tomorrow's climb.你最好留点力气明天爬山。
    Salt preserves food from decay.盐能防止食物腐烂。

    keep,retain,reserve,preserve,conserve,withhold

    这些动词均有“保持,保存”之意。
    keep最常用词,指长时间牢固地保持或保存。
    retain指继续保持。
    reserve正式用词,指为了将来的用途或其他用途而保存、保留。
    preserve主要指为防止损害、变质等而保存。
    conserve一般指保存自然资源,保全人的精力、力量等。
