三、詞義辨析:
beautiful,fair,handsome,lovely,pretty,fine
這些形容詞均含“美麗的,漂亮的”之意。beautiful普通用詞,含義廣泛,語氣最強,指優美和諧,是一種幾乎接近完美的美。指人時通常形容女人或小孩,很少用於描寫男子。fair正式用詞,多用於文學中,形容女子和兒童,側重外表的美。handsome多用於描寫男性的英俊瀟灑。有時也形容女人,指其五官端正,體態秀麗。lovely普通用詞,描寫人時,主要指女人和小孩的相貌,語氣不如beautiful強。pretty普通用詞,語氣比beautiful弱,多用於描寫婦女、兒童以及小巧玲瓏,精美可愛之物。fine指在容貌、身材或風度等方面令人感到可愛。用於事物時,強調形式或內容的優美。
