词语用法

v. (动词)

1. repair的基本意思是“修理”,指将破损的东西通过一些加工处理后使其恢复原有的功能或价值。用于抽象事物还可指“纠正,补救”。
2. repair主要用作及物动词,后接名词或代词作宾语; 可用于被动结构。偶尔也可用作不及物动词,其主动形式常含有被动意义。
3. repair还表示“经常地或成群地去(某地)”解,是不及物动词,常与介词to连用,往往出现在文学语言或修饰语里。
4. repair有时可用以指妇女修饰自己的面容,作“打扮”解。

n. (名词)

1. repair用作名词的意思是“修理,修补”,表示抽象的“修理行为”时是不可数名词,表示具体的“维修工作”或“维修的地方”时是可数名词。
2. repair用作可数名词时常用复数形式,但不与数词或不定冠词a连用。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

repair, amend, fix, mend, patch

• 这五个词都可表示“修理”“修补”。其区别是：
• 1.fix是口语用词。
• 2.repair是一般用词,凡是损坏、损伤、故障,尤其是收音机、手表、汽车、炉子等这类的机械装置需要“修理”“维修”时用repair。例如:
• We have repaired the motor.我们已经修好了电动机。
• Xiao Wang is repairing desks and chairs in the classroom.小王正在教室里修理桌椅。
• The puncture has been repaired.那个洞被补上了。
• The house must be repaired from top to bottom.这所房子必须彻底进行修理。
• 3.mend多指修补磨损、穿破、撕毁的简单日常用品,也可用于比喻,指改进行为、修改法律、治愈感情创伤等。例如:
• Let me mend the socks for you.让我来给你补袜子。
• The child will soon mend if she has enough to eat.这孩子如果有足够的东西吃就会很快恢复健康。
• The relations between John and David are mending.约翰与戴维的关系在改善。
• It is never too late to mend.改过不嫌晚。
• It is not too late to mend the fold even after some of the sheep have been lost.亡羊补牢,犹未为晚。
• 4.amend是正式用语,含有改造人或法规的缺陷与不足之意。例如:
• You must amend your pronunciation.你必须改正你的发音。
• The thief has amended.这小偷改过自新了。
• It's time you amended your ways.是你改过自新的时候了。
• The regulations are amended.这些规则被修正了。
• 5.patch指用一块材料把有洞的地方、有裂痕的地方、被穿破的地方贴起来。例如:
• The workman patched the ceiling.工人修补了天花板。
• This piece of material is just right to patch the roof.这块材料正好可用来补屋顶。
• He patched all the fences near the house.他把靠近房子的围墙全都修了。

repair, maintain

• maintain的意思是“维修”,以免不发生故障; repair的意思是“更新”“恢复原状”。

下面三个句子的意思相同：

• My watch wants repairs.
• My watch wants repairing.
• My watch wants to be repaired.
• 我的手表需要修理了。

mend，repair，patch，fix

• 这些动词均含“修理、修复”之意。
• mend通常指较简单的修复过程，一般不需要专门技术或特殊工具。
• repair可与mend换用，但一般指需要较高的职业技能和使用较复杂的工具进行修理。
• patch通常指用类似材料修补破洞、裂缝或磨损的地方。
• fix多用于美语，仅用于指带有安装，固定性质的修理。

常见错误

n. (名词)

1. 本店内部整修,暂停营业。

   误 The shop is closed during repair.

   正 The shop is closed during repairs.

   析 during repairs表示“在维修期间”,其中repair表示“维修工作”,是可数名词,并常用复数形式。

2. 这座古建筑正在修缮之中。

   误 The ancient building is under repairs.

   正 The ancient building is under repair.

   析 under repair表示“在修理之中”,其中repair表示“修理”,是不可数名词,不能用复数形式。

3. 尽管那座桥已用了50多年,但仍然维修良好。

   误 Although the bridge has been used for more than fifty years, it is still in a good repair.

   正 Although the bridge has been used for more than fifty years, it is still in good repair.

   析 in good repair表示“维修良好”。在这个词组中, repair是不可数名词,表示“维修状况”,前面不能加a。

4. 我们只好改道,因为前面正在修路。

   误 We had to divert, because the road ahead was in repair.

   正 We had to divert, because the road ahead was under repair.

   析 in repair的意思是in good working condition(状况良好)。“正在被修理”应该是under repair,它相当于being repaired,介词under的意思是“在…中”“在…期间”。

词源解说

• ☆ 14世纪中期进入英语，直接源自古法语的reparer，意为修缮；最初源自拉丁语的reparare，意为修复。
