n. (名词)
purpose, aim, goal
  • 这组词的共同含义是“目的”,常通用,如aim〔goal,purpose〕 in life人生目标。它们之间的区别主要在于:
  • 1.goal指比较宏大的总目标; purpose指近期比较确定的意图; aim指短期内比较具体、实际的目标。例如:
  • He often asked himself what his goal in life should be.他常常自问人生的目标该是什么。
  • Do you come here for the purpose of seeing your family or for business purpose?你来此地是为了看家还是为了做生意?
  • Their aim was to take over industry for her.他们的目标是为她接管产业。
  • 再如下面把aim和goal用在同一个句子里,其区别就更明显易见了：
  • His aim was to pass his examinations this year and go to college so he could eventually reach his goal of being a teacher.他的目标是今年考上大学,以便最终实现当教师的抱负。
  • 2.purpose强调“有意去做”(行动坚决); aim强调“集中精力去做”(联想“瞄准”)。在努力程度上, aim比purpose要弱。例如:
  • I am afraid he did it on purpose.我担心他是有意这么做的。
  • His only aim in life is to make a fortune.他生活的唯一目标是赚钱发财。
  • 3.goal具有理想性,并不强调最后一定要实现; purpose和aim则暗示能够实现,这在动词aim for中体现最明显。例如:
  • The presidency was the goal of his ambition.他的奋斗目标是当总统。
  • His aim is to become a doctor.他的目标是当一个医生。
  • 4.purpose可以由他人来完成; 而goal则往往靠自己去努力。例如:
  • The purpose of a tutorial system was to let each student realize his own educational goal.导师制旨在让学生认清自己的学习目标。
  • 5.aim不如goal和purpose生动。
    • purpose, object, objective
  • 这三个词均可表示“目标”“目的”。其区别在于:object常指基于个人决心的目标,常较抽象; objective常指具体的、直接的或很快可以达到的目标,为正式用语; purpose为普通用词,既可指人们期望出现的结果,也可指为此进行的活动过程。例如:
  • He has a definite object in life.他对人生有明确的目标。
  • My objective this summer is learning to swim.我今年夏天的目标是学会游泳。
  • The purpose was to halt the rise in the exchange rate of the Swiss franc.目的在于制止瑞士法郎兑换率上涨。
    • aim，goal，purpose，end，target，object，objective
  • 这些名词均有“目标、目的”之意。
  • aim从本义“靶子”引申而来，侧重比较具体而明确的目标，但常指短期目标。
  • goal指经过考虑和选择，需经坚持不懈的努力奋斗才能达到的最终目标。
  • purpose普通用词，既指以坚决、审慎的行动去达到的目的，又指心中渴望要实现的目标。
  • end指心目中怀着的某种目的，强调结果而非过程。较正式用词。
  • target指射击的靶，军事攻击目标。引申指被攻击、批评或嘲笑的目标。
  • object强调个人或需求而决定的目标、目的。
  • objective与object基本同义，但语义更广泛，指具体或很快能达到的目的，也可指军事目标。书面用词。
    • 用作名词 (n.)
