  • 词义辨析

    size, bulk

    这两个词都可指某物在数量、程度、型号上的“大小”。它们的区别是:
    1.bulk不指准确的度量,只表示相当大的量; size则相对准确些。例如:
    Great bulk does not always mean great weight.体积大并不意味着分量重。
    2.size可指“尺寸,号码”, bulk没有这种用法。例如:
    What size shoes do you want?—I want size seven.你要哪号码的鞋子?——我要7号的。

    size, volume

    这两个词都有“大小”“尺寸”或“体积”的意思。它们的区别是:
    1.size主要指“尺寸”“规模”或“身材”等的大小或“数量”等的多少; volume指某物所占空间的体积或某容器的容积,还可约定俗成地来表达其他任何东西的度量。例如:
    The sheets are made in several sizes to fit different sizes of bed.这些床单有几种尺寸,以便与大小不同的床配套。
    The volume of this container is 1000 cubic metres.这个集装箱的容量是1000立方米。
    2.size强调真实准确性; volume强调精确性。例如:
    They decreased the size of the group from 25 to 15.他们把小组的人数从25人减少到15人。
    That is a room with a volume of 30 cubic feet.那是一个30立方英尺的房间。
    3.volume还可表示声音的高低,而size无此义。例如:
    Turning the knob of a radio one can fade the volume of sound in or out.旋转收音机的旋钮,你就能使音量渐渐增大或减弱。

    下面两个句子的意思相同:

    The two boys are (of) the same size.
    The two boys are of a size.
    这两个男孩子个头一般高。

    下面三个句子的意思相同:

    I take a size eight shoe.
    I take size eight shoes.
    I take a size eight in shoes.
    我穿8号鞋。
