n. (名词)
substance, material, matter, stuff
  • 这组词都可表示“物质”。其区别在于:
  • 1.matter泛指构成客观物体或宇宙的所有物质。在物理学上指由很少的几种基本粒子构成的物质; 在哲学上则指与mind(意识)相对的物质。例如:
  • Matter occupies space.物质占据空间。
  • 2.stuff, material和substance都可指构成或制作某物的材料或零件, material特指人造制品的制作原料, substance则指某种可使某物具有某种特性的特殊物质。例如:
  • Hope is the stuff that dreams are made of.希望正是构成理想的材料。
  • The tips of matches are covered with chemical substance.火柴头上包着一层化学物质。
  • 3.material还可指文学创作的素材,而其他的词却无此义。例如:
  • He is now collecting material for a biography of Du Fu.他正在为写作杜甫传记而收集资料。
  • 4.stuff是日常用语,不用于科技文体中,而其他的词则可用作科技术语。例如:
  • He was told to move his stuff out of the room.人家叫他把他的东西搬出房间去。
  • material,matter,substance,stuff
  • 这些名词均含“物质,东西”之意。
  • material通常指组成客观存在物的部分或其原料。

  • substance多指某一种形式的物质,既可指元素也可指化合物。
  • stuff多用于日常生活中,非正式用词,常指构成整体的所有部分、物体或项目,有时指劣等材料,含轻蔑意味。
