calm, quiet, still, silent
這幾個詞都與“靜”有關(guān),但它們所表示靜的對相是不同的,所描述的物體、場合是不同的。
(1) calm 常指天氣平靜、無風(fēng),海無浪,心境鎮(zhèn)定,無憂慮,鎮(zhèn)靜自若,強(qiáng)調(diào)外表等。如:
The weather is calm and the sea is calm. 天氣和大海是一片寧靜。
Although she was frightened, she answered with a calm voice. 盡管她心里害怕,她回答問題時心里還是很鎮(zhèn)定。
(2) quiet “靜止的、寧靜的、沒有激動、煩惱、憂慮的、”,強(qiáng)調(diào)沒有擾亂,沒有興奮活動或鬧聲的“寧靜”或“心神安逸”。如:
Ask the children to make less noise and keep quiet. 讓孩子們小點(diǎn)聲,保持安靜。
(3) still “靜止不動”、“平靜”,突出不發(fā)出動作。如:
Please stand still while I am ready to take the photograph. 站著別動,我給你們照相。
It was very late and the night was still. 更深夜靜。
(4)silent “聲音極小的”、“沉默的”、“寡言的”。如:

The house was silent because everyone was asleep. 房子里很安靜,所有的人都睡著了。
