  1. city是可数名词,意思是“城市,都市,市”,多指较大或重要的城市。在美国,人口在8000人以上的都可称为city。
  2. city也可表示“全市居民,全城居民”,作此解时是集合名词,常用作单数,可与单数或复数动词连用。
  3. the City的意思是“伦敦商业区,伦敦城”。
  4. “进城”可说go to the city,也可说go to town。注意town前无冠词。
n. (名词)
city, town
  • 这两个词的共同意思是“城市”或“城镇”。其区别在于:
  • 1.city一般指规模较大或较重要的城市; town则一般指比city规模较小的城镇。例如:
  • The big city bewildered the old woman from the countryside.大城市把乡下来的老奶奶弄糊涂了。
  • The old couple will attempt to leave the town as soon as possible.这对老夫妇想要尽快离开这个小城。
  • 2.city在美国比在英国更常用,大小相当于英国的town的市镇在美国都可以叫做 city ; 而town则在英国比在美国更常用,一个在美国可以称之为city的都市,在英国仍可叫做town。
  • 3.town有时也可指城市的商业中心区,还可用以指整个城镇居民。例如:
  • The whole town knew of it.全城(居民)都知道这件事。
    • city，town
  • 这两个名词均含“城市”之意。
  • city一般指大城市或重要城市。
  • town一般指规模小的城镇，也指城市中的市区，有时也泛指城市。

    • 常见错误

    n. (名词)
      杭州是一个富有吸引力的旅游城市。

      误 Hangzhou is an attractive city of tourism.

      正 Hangzhou is an attractive city for tourists.

      正 Hangzhou is an attractive tourist city.

      析 “旅游城市”可说tourist city或city for tourists,不可说city of tourism。

      我从未到过该市。

      误 I've never been to the City.

      正 I've never been to the city.

      析 the City特指伦敦商业区。
