词义辨析

n. (名词)

tea, breakfast, dinner, lunch, meal, supper

• 这组词均为餐名,一般不加冠词。其区别是：
• dinner指正餐,多在晚上吃,也可指宴会; breakfast指早餐; lunch指午餐; meal指任何一餐; supper指晚餐; tea在英国,指下午茶。例如:
• He asked me to dinner tonight.他邀请我今天晚上吃饭。
• The dinner we had was excellent.我们吃的晚餐很丰盛。
• I hope you will honour us with your presence at the dinner.我希望您能光临此次晚宴。
• I have breakfast at seven.我在7点吃早餐。
• We have lunch at noon.我们在中午吃午饭。
• He had a light meal at home.他在家吃了顿便餐。
• I have supper at six.我6点吃晚饭。
• They are having tea in the garden.他们正在园子里喝下午茶。

下面两个句子的意思相同：

• He invited us to tea.
• He invited us for tea.
• 他请我们去喝茶。

常见错误

n. (名词)

1. 她走进厨房,沏了一壶红茶。

   误 She went into the kitchen to make a fresh pot of red tea.

   正 She went into the kitchen to make a fresh pot of black tea.

   析 “绿茶”是green tea,但是“红茶”是black tea,不是red tea。

2. 我该放多少茶叶?

   误 How many teas should I put?

   正 How much tea (leaves) should I put?

3. 他是一个鉴别茶叶的专家。

   误 He is an expert in tea.

   正 He is an expert in teas.

   析 tea是物质名词,通常不可用复数,但作“各种茶”解时,可用复数。
