  2. waste还可作“荒地”解,指没有开垦或没有耕种的土地,作此解时是可数名词,可用于复数形式。
  3. waste后可接of短语作其定语。
v. (动词)
  1. waste的基本意思是“浪费”,即对人、财、物等使用不当或没有节制。其特征表现在主观方面是粗心或奢侈,表现在客观方面则是白白付出而没有取得成就或好处。
  2. waste主要用作及物动词,接名词或代词作宾语。当表示人在某人〔物、事〕上浪费时间〔金钱、精力、话语〕等时,其宾语后常接介词on+ n. 或接(in〔on〕+) v -ing。
  3. waste用作及物动词时还可以表示人〔战争、灾荒〕等使土地〔建筑物〕等荒芜、废弃,也可以表示疾病〔忧虑、高龄〕等使人或其体力〔面容〕等变得衰弱、消瘦。作这两种意思解时常可用于被动结构。

n. (名词)
waste, refuse, rubbish
  • 这三个词都有“废弃物”的意思。其区别是：
  • waste 作“废物”解时,是最普通用词,指失去原使用价值的、陈旧、破损了的物品; refuse通常指积聚成一堆的废旧物品或垃圾; rubbish 通常泛指垃圾,包括一切废物,这些废物已毫无用处,毫无价值。例如:
  • There are many heaps of refuse along the street. 沿街有许多垃圾。
  • The rubbish here must be cleared away as soon as possible.这儿的垃圾必须尽快清除。
    • v. (动词)
    waste on, waste in
  • waste后可以接介词on,也可以接in。用on时偏重于“在…上面浪费了…”; 用in时则偏重于“在…的过程中浪费了…”。因此,接时间、金钱、精力或某物时多用on,而接动名词或具有动词意味的名词时多用in。
    • waste, consume, dissipate, fritter, squander
  • 这组词都有“浪费”的意思。其区别是：
  • waste指任意地挥霍,通常是花费而不见成果; squander的意思比waste强,强调胡乱花费,含有花光而导致贫困的意思; dissipate指因奢侈而丧失东西,犹如随风撒东西一样,强调将存有的东西用光或几乎用光; fritter常和away连用,指一点一点地花费,或花费在不重要的东西上,含有逐渐用光的意思; consume强调吞食或毁坏,但也可指完全浪费或挥霍掉,用于金钱或财产时,指频繁地减少,偶尔用于时间或精力时,指无益地花费。例如:
  • The council has been squandering the ratepayers' money.市议会一直在挥霍房地产纳税人的金钱。
  • He dissipated his large fortune in a few years of heavy spending.他在几年的大肆挥霍中把自己一大笔财产都花光了。
  • She fritters away all her money on clothes and trips to the cinema.她把所有金钱都浪费在穿衣服和看电影上了。
  • The fire soon consumed the wooden buildings.大火很快就把那些木制建筑物吞没了。
    • waste, spend
  • 这两个词都可表示“耗费时间、金钱、精力等”,其区别是：
  • spend是“花有所得”,而waste则是“徒劳无益”。试比较:
  • He spent a lot of money on〔in〕 enter- taining friends.
  • 他在招待朋友上花了许多钱。
  • (含有“真朋友,需要时会给予帮助”)
  • He wasted a lot of money on〔in〕 enter- taining friends.
  • 他在招待朋友上花了许多钱。
  • (酒肉朋友,吃你、喝你不帮你)
    • waste，garbage，rubbish，litter，debris，junk
  • 这些名词均含“废物，垃圾”之意。
  • waste普通用词，概念广泛，指任何被丢弃的东西。
  • garbage主要指有机废料，包括厨房的剩菜剩饭或不能再用的食物。也可作引申用。
  • rubbish普通用词，指任何成堆的、破损的、用过的或无用的东西，尤指弃掉的垃圾堆。也可作引申用。
  • litter是四下乱丢物品的总称，尤指散落于地，有碍观瞻的废物。
  • debris着重指分解、分裂或破坏后剩下的碎片，也指零散的普通废品。
  • junk指回收的旧汽车或大型机器，也指毫无实用价值，或破烂物体，但不指垃圾。
    • 用作名词 (n.)
