词义辨析

v. (动词)

unite, combine, connect, join

• 这组词都有“连接”的意思。它们之间的区别在于:
• 1.connect指两个不同的、分离着的事物在某一点上相互接触(可依靠媒介物),但各自仍保持原有的特性及独立性; combine指两个或多个东西“搅拌”“渗透”或“混合”,合而为一,但已失去原有的特性; unite意思是“联合”“结合”“合并”,指把两件以上同种类的东西紧密地结合在一起,重新组成一个整体,使其合而为一,也可用于无形事物的结合; join意为“联合”“联结”,指使两个分开的东西联结起来或把一个东西加入到另一个里面去,使它们合在一起,但个体形象仍然存在。例如:
• Africa is connected with Asia at the spot where the Suez Canal was dug.非洲在开凿苏伊士运河的地方与亚洲相连。
• She combined some sugar, flour and butter to make some cookies.她把白糖、面粉和黄油和在一起做小甜饼。
• Let us unite to fight poverty and disease.让我们同心协力与贫穷和疾病作斗争。
• They danced and danced until a lot of us joined in.他们不停地跳着舞,直到我们中间许多人都参加了进去。
• 2.combine还可表示“联合”或“合并”; connect还可表示事物之间的因果、逻辑等关系。例如:
• Let us combine our two firms against our competitors.让我们两家公司联合起来,对付和我们竞争的那些公司。
• The radio will not work unless you connect these two wires together.除非你把这两根线接上,否则收音机就不会响。
• 3.从结合的紧密程度来说, join要比connect密切。例如:
• Make sure the machine is connected properly.务必核实这台机器是否确已接通电源。
• The first stage of the operation was to join up the bones.手术的第一步是把骨头接上。

下面两句话意思相同:

• Let's unite to fight poverty and disease.
• Let's unite in fighting poverty and disease.
• 让我们团结起来向贫穷和疾病宣战。

join，combine，unite，connect，link，attach，couple，associate，relate

• combine指两个或两个以上的人或物结合在一起。
• unite指联合、团结、结合在一起，构成一个整体。
• connect指两事物在某一点上相连接，但彼此又保持独立。
