choice和choose的区别题目

choice和choose的区别题目

选择与挑选的区别在生活中,我们经常会遇到“选择”和“挑选”这两个词。

它们的意思似乎很接近,但实际上它们有着不同的用法和内涵。

在这篇文章中,我将从不同角度深入探讨“选择”和“挑选”的区别,以便我们能更加清晰地理解它们的真正含义和用法。

1. 词义和概念让我们来看一下这两个词的基本词义和概念。

“选择”指的是在众多的选项中做出决定,并确定一个或多个方案。

它是一个相对宽泛的概念,可以涵盖各种情境和范围。

“挑选”则更多指的是在众多的选项中精挑细选,寻找最合适的或最优秀的。

2. 取舍和决策当我们面对多个选项时,我们需要进行取舍和决策。

在这种情况下,“选择”更强调的是作出决定的行为,强调对各种因素进行权衡和抉择。

“挑选”则更侧重于对选项进行详细的比较和筛选,以寻找最符合自己需求的。

3. 意义和心态“选择”往往更强调的是一个正式的决定过程,它可能涉及到更多的理性和客观性。

“挑选”则更倾向于个人的主观偏好和情感倾向。

在实际生活中,我们在购物、择业、结交朋友等方方面面都会体现出“挑选”的概念。

4. 经济与效率在商业领域,“选择”和“挑选”可以有着明显的不同。

在采购过程中,一个公司需要从众多供应商中选择合作对象,这时候更注重的是对方案进行权衡和比较,这就是“选择”的概念。

而在市场方面,消费者更倾向于挑选最符合自己需求的产品,这时候更多的是考虑个性化和品质性,这就是“挑选”的概念。

总结回顾在日常生活中,无论是在个人抉择还是商业决策中,我们都会面临各种各样的选择和挑选。

了解“选择”和“挑选”的区别,不仅可以帮助我们更好地理解文字的含义,还可以帮助我们更加灵活和坦然地应对各种情境。

个人观点和理解在我看来,“选择”和“挑选”是一种态度和方法的体现。

选择更多是一种全面性和综合性的决策过程,而挑选更多是一种个性化和精细化的心态。

在面对选择和挑选时,我们应该根据具体情境和需求来灵活运用,以达到最佳的效果和满意度。

通过这篇文章的撰写,我也更加深入地理解了“选择”和“挑选”的区别,希望我提供的内容对你有所帮助。

高考英语3500单词第十一讲(单词速记与拓展)

高考英语3500词第十讲1.choice n. 选择; 抉择【choose的名词】2.choke n. & v. 窒息【元音字母o在重读开音节中读/əʊ/,符合这项读音的拼读模式有--oke等如:--oke/əʊk/coke n. 可口可乐joke n. 玩笑smoke v. 吸烟n. 烟broke v. 打破;打断(break的过去式)spoke v. 说话(speak的过去式)woke v. 醒来】3.choose (chose, chosen) v. 选择【字母oo组合有时读/u:/,符合这项读音规则的拼读模式有--oose如:--oosechoose v. 选择goose n. 鹅loose adj.松的】4.chopsticks n. 筷子【词根词缀:chop快 + stick棍,棒】5.chorus n. 合唱, 合唱队, 齐声【cho + rus】Christ n.基督;救世主【英语单词Christ源自希腊单词khristos,是对希伯来语mashiah的意译。

希伯来语mashiah的意思就是the anointed(被膏立者),大写的Mashiah用来特指上帝指派的救世主。

从Mashiah经过希腊语、拉丁语直接产生了英语单词Messiah(弥赛亚,救世主),而对mashiah的意译则产生了英语单词Christ(基督),其实它们同源同意,只是经历了不同的演变路径而已。

不过,Christ现在是基督教的专用名词,专指耶稣(Jesus),因为基督教相信他就是弥赛亚,是上帝的儿子,被上帝派来为世人赎罪的。

而犹太教并不承认耶稣是弥赛亚。

相反,他们对自称“弥赛亚”的耶稣相当愤怒,认为是对上帝的亵渎。

尤其是犹太教中掌权的祭司们,担心耶稣会剥夺他们的领导权,因此他们率领愤怒的犹太暴民,向当时统治耶路撒冷的罗马总督施加压力,逼着他处死了耶稣。

从此以后,基督教就和犹太教结下了梁子,犹太人成了基督教徒心目中杀害耶稣的罪人,这就是基督教世界反犹太人思想的主要原因。

After all, in comparison with packaging, people are more sensitive to price.Last but not least, our resources are limited and some are even non-renewable. Once the products are opened up, the wrapper are useless, so it is expected that designers can develop further uses of packaging materials or at least make them environmental-friendly.第二辑Test 2Topic A: WHAT IS IMPORTANT WHEN ……?Selecting staff for promotion●Attitude to work●Current performance【词汇&短语】空缺职位vacancy 人事部personnel行政管理部administration 公关public relations总部head office 工资wages and salaries管理技能managerial skill 职业前景career prospect人力资源部human resources 团队协作teamwork【句型点击】●常用开始语Thank you for your questionThe answer is…Let me start with….In my viewIt is very likely that….●表达观点常用句What I am thinking is….Let me make my point very clear.It is crystal clear that…..There is no doubt that…..I am into the first opinion..【句型点击】When selecting staff for promotion, several factors should be taken into consideration, to begin with, the attitude to the work is one of the most fundamental elements. I believe attitude is everything. It is not uncommon to find workers who have great talents but are reluctant to make full contribution in their position, the point is, you have to love what you are doing and you have to try your utmost and reserve no effort to do it.Secondly, current performance is also very important, because it is obvious that attitude and effort have to be measured in a certain way so that you can know everyone’s capability.Thirdly, you can’t ignore career potential and adaptability, almost in every company, we can find employees who are excellent individuals but fail to cooperate in a team, these elements are all very essential in one’s career. Admittedly, it is not very likely to find all of them in one person, and then you have to consider about the specific position and grant priority to one of them.Topic B: WHAT IS I MPORTANT WHEN ……?Considering a career change●Further study or training●Opportunities for future promotion【词汇&短语】实际工资real wages 合并merger最终目标ultimate goal 个人收入personal income坏的影响adverse effect 工资价格螺旋上升wage-price spiral精明的讨价还价交易horse-trading 无形资产intangible assets资格qualification 投资回报return on investment【句型点击】●更倾向于某一个选项I would take …….. as my priority 我会把……..作为我的首选项。

(2)用if,unless,before,after,until,although,though,as,since,because,so,so that等构成含状语从句的复合句(这里要注意区分一下复杂句和复合句,复合句是包含在复杂句这个概念里面的,在下文的基础写作部分有提到)。

10个常用口头禅的英文翻译1。

随便Whatever“whatever”原意为“不管怎样,无论什么”。

当你想结束话题停止争吵,或者想表示什么都行,不怎么在意时就可以说“whatever”。

但是有调查显示,“whatever”是美国人最反感的口头禅,使用的时候也要小心谨慎哦。

例句:A:Hey,let‘s go to the cinema tonight。

Or what about the museum?(嘿,今晚一起去电影院吧,或者去博物馆?)B:Yeah,whatever。

(随便吧。

)▼2。

你真是3分钟热度3-minute passion“passion”意为激情、热情,这个短语非常容易记忆,和中文意思也完全符合。

例句:A:I would like to learn piano therefore I will need to buy one。

(我想学钢琴,所以我要去买把琴。

)B:Oh,I suggest that you think carefully before you buy one as you are always a‘3-minute passion’person。

(我建议你考虑清楚,因为你总是3分钟热度。

)▼3。

改天吧Rain check“改天吧”经常出现在懒人或大忙人的口中,相当于英语中的“rain check”。

该短语来源于美国的棒球文化,如果球赛进行时天公不作美,骤然倾盆大雨不得不暂停,观众可领“雨票”,或用原票存根作为“雨票”(rain check),球赛改期举行时可凭之入场。

后来,这短语就不局限在体育赛事方面了,保留了原义运用到生活中,就变成了“改天吧”。

例句:A:How about a cup of coffee?(去喝杯咖啡?)B:Rain check。

(改天吧。

)▼4。

看着办吧play it by ear及时行乐的人经常会将“看着办吧”挂在嘴边,英语的说法是“play it by ear”。

Soapy's Choice Soapy sat on a seat in Madison Square, New York

Soapy's Choice Soapy sat on a seat in Madison Square, New York

Soapy’s ChoiceSoapy sat on a seat in Madison Square, New York, and looked up at the sky. A dead leaf fell onto his arm. Winter was coming, and Soapy knew that he must make his plans. He moved unhappily on his seat.He wanted three months in a nice, warm prison, with food and good friends. This was how he usually spent his winters. And now it was time, because, at night on his seat in the square, three newspapers did not keep out the cold.So Soapy decided to go to prison, and at once began to try his first plan. It was usually easy. He ate dinner in an expensive restaurant. Then he told them he had no money and they called a policeman. Nice and easy, with no trouble.So Soapy left his seat, and walked slowly along the street. Soon he came to a bright restaurant on Broadway. Ah! This was all right. He just had to get to a table in the restaurant and sit down. That was all, because, when he sat down, people could only see his coat and his shirt, which were not very old. Nobody could see his trousers. He thought about the meal – not too expensive, but good.But when Soapy went into the restaurant, the waiter saw Soapy's dirty old trousers and terrible shoes.Strong hands turned him round and helped him out into the street again.So now he had to think of something different. Soapy walked away from Broadway and soon he found himself on Sixth Avenue. He stopped in front of a shop window and looked at it. It was nice and bright, and everybody in the street could see him. Slowly and carefully he picked up a stone and threw it at the window. The glass broke with a loud noise. People ran round the corner and Soapy was happy, because the man in front was a policeman. Soapy did not move. He stood there with his hands in his pockets, and he smiled. 'I'll soon be in prison now,' he thought.The policeman came up to Soapy. 'Who did that?' he asked.'Perhaps I did,' Soapy replied.But the policeman knew that people who break windows do not stop to talk to policemen. They run away. And just then the policeman saw another man, who was running to catch a bus. So the policeman ran after him. Soapy watched for a minute. Then he walked away. No luck again! He began to feel cross.But on the opposite side of the road he saw a little restaurant. 'Ah, that'll be all right,' he thought, and he went in. This time nobody looked at his trousers and his shoes. He enjoyed his meal, and then he looked up at the waiter, smiled and said, 'I haven't got any money, you know. Now, call the police. And do itquickly. I'm tired!''No police for you!' the waiter answered. 'Hey! Jo!'Another waiter came, and together they threw Soapy out into the cold street. Soapy lay there, very angry. With difficulty, he stood up. His nice warm prison was still far away, and Soapy was very unhappy. He felt worse because a policeman, who was standing near, laughed and walked away.Soapy moved on, but he walked for a long time before he tried again. This time it looked easy.A nice young woman was standing in front of a shop window. Not very far away there was also a policeman. Soapy moved nearer to the young woman. He saw that the policeman was watching him. Then he said to the young woman, with a smile, 'Whydon't you come with me, my dear? I can give you a good time.'The young woman moved away a little and looked more carefully into the shop window. Soapy looked at the policeman. Yes, he was still watching. Then he spoke to the young woman again. In a minute she would call the policeman. Soapy could almost see the prison doors. Suddenly, the young woman took hold of his arm.'OK,' she said happily. 'If you buy me a drink. Let's go before that policeman sees us.' And poor Soapy walked away with the young woman, who still held on to his arm. He was very unhappy.At the next corner he ran away from the woman. Suddenly he was afraid. 'I'm never going to get to prison,' he thought.Slowly, he walked on and came to a street with a lot of theatres. There were a lot of people there, rich people in their best clothes. Soapy had to do something to get to prison. He did not want to spend another night on his seat in Madison Square. What could he do? Then he saw a policeman near him, so he began to sing and shout and make a lot of noise. This time they must send him to prison. But the policeman turned his back to Soapy and said to a man who was standing near, 'He's had too much to drink, but he's not dangerous. We'll leave him alone tonight.'What was the matter with the police? Soapy was really unhappy now, but he stopped making a noise. How could he get to prison? The wind was cold, and he pulled his thin coat around him.But, just then, inside a shop, he saw a man with an expensive umbrella. The man put his umbrella down near the door, and took out a cigarette. Soapy went into the shop, picked up the umbrella, and, slowly, he began to walk away. The man came quickly after him.'That's my umbrella,' he said.'Oh, is it?' Soapy replied. 'Then why don't you call a policeman? I took it, and you say it's your umbrella. Go on, then. Call a policeman! Look! There's one on the corner.' The umbrella man looked unhappy. 'Well, you know, perhaps I've made a mistake. I took it from a restaurant this morning. If it's yours, well, I'm very sorry . . .' 'Of course it's my umbrella,' Soapy said.The policeman looked at them - and the umbrella man walked away. The policeman went to help a beautiful young girl to cross the road.Soapy was really angry now. He threw the umbrella away and said many bad things about policemen. Just because he wanted to go to prison, they did not want to send him there. He could do nothing wrong!He began to walk back to Madison Square and home - his seat.But on a quiet corner, Soapy suddenly stopped. Here, in the middle of the city, was a beautiful old church. Through one purple window he could see a soft light, and sweet music was coming from inside the church. The moon was high in the sky and everything was quiet. For a few seconds it was like a country church and Soapy remembered other, happier days. He thought of the days when he had a mother, and friends, and beautiful things in his life.Then he thought about his life now - the empty days, the dead plans. And then a wonderful thing happened. Soapy decided to change his life and be a new man.'Tomorrow,' he said to himself, 'I'll go into town and find work. My life will be good again. I'll be somebody important. Everything will be different. I'll . . .'Soapy felt a hand on his arm. He jumped and looked round quickly - into the face of a policeman!'What are you doing here?' asked the policeman.'Nothing,' Soapy answered.'Then come with me,' the policeman said.'Three months in prison,' they told Soapy the next.。

Hobson's choice 无可选择
【讲解】
1712年10月14日第509期的"参观者" (spectator)杂志刊登斯蒂尔(Steele)的文章,
说明此语的起源。

托拜厄斯·霍布森(Tobias Hobson)在剑桥开了一间客找,并出租马匹。

他有许多马,但只让租马人拉最靠门厩的马,而不允许选择。

此语就因此产生。

其实,霍布森的这种做法是有道理的,因为靠近厩门的马休息时间最长。

【对话】
A:I don't want to go home. They are quarrelling with each other everyday.
A:我不想回家,他们总是吵呀吵呀。

B:But you are penniless now.
B:但你现在身无分文。

A:So it is a case of Hobson's choice for me.
A:所以我别无选择。

B:Yeah.
B:对呀。
