单词 | wear out(wear well) |
释义 | wear out : wear well — 1148 由于 wear 这个动词既可作“经穿”讲,又可作“不耐穿”讲,所以一经搭配了 out 或 well 这两个副词,就分别作“不经穿”和“耐穿”讲了。 例如: Our productions must wear. 我们的产品一定要耐用。(这句话有语病,因为 wear 又可作“不耐用”讲。) Our production must not wear. 我们的产品一定要不易用坏。(这句话也有语病,因为 not wear 又可作“不耐用”讲)。 It is better to wear out than to rust out. — Cumberland. 宁愿穿破,也不能听其霉烂。 A cloth like this will wear out. 这种布不耐穿。 比较: A cloth like this will wear out. 这种布不耐穿。(没有别的解释) A cloth like this will wear well. 这种布经穿。(只有这一种解释) |
