用法讲解

adj. (形容词)
  1. simple用作形容词,基本意思是“简单的,易懂的”,侧重于事物不复杂,易于迅速解决或很快被头脑接受。simple也可作“朴素的,简朴的”解,一般指生活过得简朴。simple引申可指人“头脑简单的,易受骗的; 迟钝的”或事物“结构单一的,非复合的”解。
  2. simple在作“结构单一的,非复合的”“纯粹的,单纯的,完全的”解时,没有比较级和最高级形式。
adj. (形容词)
simple, easy, facile, simplified
  • 这组词都可以表示“做某事或理解某事没有太大困难”。其区别是:
  • simply是个最一般的词,指不复杂或不难懂,因此能很快被头脑接受; easy也是一个最一般的词,常指事情容易做,不费劲; facile源于法语,几乎等于easy,但在现代英语中它常与一件表面上的甚至是虚假的东西相联系,因而带有贬义色彩; simplified指经过简化变得不复杂、不难理解或不难做。例如:
  • It is very easy to do this thing.做这件事非常容易。
  • There are a lot of simplified novels in our library.我们图书馆里有许多简写本小说。the facile smile of the high-pressure salesman有高度工作压力的售货员脸上皮笑肉不笑
  • 下面两句意思相同:
  • It was simple to do the job.
  • It was a simple job to do.
  • 做那项工作很容易。
  • simple,easy
  • 这两个形容词均含“简单的,轻易的”之意。
  • simple有指(事物结构)简单,简朴。
  • easy指轻松。
  • 用作形容词 (adj.)
