在这例句中,给你两个选项,Almost,Nearly,你会选择哪个?___ no one believed him.
在句子 "___ no one believed him" 中,"Almost" 是更合适的选择,所以答案是:
Almost no one believed him.
区别:- Almost 和 nearly 都可以表示“几乎”或“差不多”的意思,但它们的使用场合略有不同:
- Almost 更常用于表示接近某个程度或状态,尤其是当你描述一种事实或情况时,"almost" 更为自然。例如,"almost no one" 是非常常见的表达。
- Nearly 虽然也表示“几乎”,但更多用于强调某个数字、时间或量的接近,例如 "nearly 100 people" 或 "nearly 5 o'clock"。
所以,"Almost no one" 表达的是几乎没有人相信他,这样的表达更为常见和自然。
这里,almost,可以替代的词是 virtually。
在句子 "Almost no one believed him" 中,最自然、最合适的替代词是 "almost" 和 "virtually"。
- Almost: Almost no one believed him. (这是最常见的表达。)
- Virtually: Virtually no one believed him. (也非常自然,强调“几乎完全没有”。)
虽然 "nearly" 也可以在某些情况下替代 "almost",但在这种否定句中,"almost" 和 "virtually" 的使用更为常见和自然。
因此,"almost" 和 "virtually" 是最合适的选择,表达意思也非常准确。
其实很多词语,翻译成中文,可以表带,“几乎”,比如 as good as,但是不能用在这个场合。
虽然 "as good as" 可以表示“几乎”或“差不多”的意思,但它通常用于描述事物接近某个状态、结果或情况,而不常用于像 "no one" 这样的否定主语。
"As good as" 更常见的用法是:
- The deal is as good as done. (这笔交易几乎已经完成了。)
- He's as good as dead. (他几乎已经死定了。)
在这种句子结构中,"as good as" 通常用于强调某个状态已经接近完成或实现。
还有些词,也可以表示“几乎”。我们查下同义词词典。
