二、(1)词义辨析:表示丢失的词语还有
lose, miss, misplace
这些动词均有“丢失,遗失”之意。lose最普通用词,侧重遗失了,难以找回来。miss着重发觉某人或某物不见的瞬间,也可作思念解。misplace指反映东西放错或故意放错地方。
(2)词义辨析:关于女性的词语还有
madam, Mrs, lady, miss
这些名词均表示对女性的尊称。madam夫人、太太,女士,小姐。与尊称男人的用词sir相对,多用于对已婚或未婚妇女的礼貌称呼,如店员对女顾客的称呼,后面不加姓名。如果已知对方的身份或姓名可在此词后面加上姓名职位。Mrs太太,夫人,是mistress的缩略形式,对已婚妇女的称呼。lady女士,夫人,与gentleman相对,是对女性的礼貌称呼,多用于演讲或祝酒时称呼在场的女性。miss小姐,是对未婚或不知婚姻状况的女性的称呼,与姓氏连用时应大写。
