词义辨析

v. (动词)

reserve, book

• book和reserve都表示“预订(车〔船票,戏院〕等)”,有时两者可通用,但列车上的“老弱病残者”座位不能用book,而只能用reserve。例如:
• Some seats on train are reserved for the old and handicapped.列车上有些座位是留给老人和残疾人的。

reserve, keep, preserve, retain

• 这组词都有“保存”“保留”或“保持”的意思。其区别在于:
• 1.keep指把某一事物置于自己的权力或管理之下; retain和reserve同义,均指继续“保持”或“保存”某事物, retain是较为正式的用语,还可指记住某事; preserve指把某物“收藏”或“保存”好。
• 2.retain含有不失去的意味; reserve则强调继续保持而不致失去; preserve强调防止破坏作用,要采取措施使某物完好无损或质量不变。例如:
• His business has been taken over by a big corporation, but he still retains some control over it.他的商店被一家大公司接管了,但他仍保留部分控制权。
• You'd better reserve your strength for tomorrow's climb.你最好留点力气明天爬山。
• Salt preserves food from decay.盐能防止食物腐烂。

keep，retain，reserve，preserve，conserve，withhold

• 这些动词均有“保持，保存”之意。
• keep最常用词，指长时间牢固地保持或保存。
• retain指继续保持。
• reserve正式用词，指为了将来的用途或其他用途而保存、保留。
• preserve主要指为防止损害、变质等而保存。
• conserve一般指保存自然资源，保全人的精力、力量等。
• withhold指扣住不放，暗示有阻碍。

词源解说

• ☆ 14世纪中期进入英语，直接源自古法语的reserver；最初源自拉丁语的reservare： re (往回） + servare (保持，保护），意为保持起来。
