away和 apart在英语中都有“远离”的含义,但它们的用法和语义存在一定差异,具体区别如下:
一、核心词义对比
away - 作副词时,强调“离开”或“在远处”,例如:
- The cat is away
the window.(猫在窗外。)
- The meeting started awayat 9 AM.(会议上午9点开始。)
- 作形容词时,表示“分离的”,例如:
- The siblings are awayfrom each other.(兄弟姐妹分居两地。)
apart
- 作副词时,强调“相距”或“分离地”,例如:
- The two cities are apartby a thousand miles.(两座城市相隔千里。)
- The students worked aparton the project.(学生们独立完成项目。)
- 作形容词时,表示“分离的”,例如:
- The rooms are apartwith their own bathrooms.(房间配有独立浴室。)
二、用法区别
距离表达: 当描述物理距离时, apart
> The mountains are apartfor miles.
而 away多用于非正式表达,如:
> The house is awaythe corner.
动作与状态:
away强调动作(如离开),例如:
> The guests left the party awaylast night.
apart强调状态(如分离),例如:
> The team is apartdue to scheduling conflicts.
固定搭配:
apart from表示“除……之外”,例如:
> The cake is apart fromdelicious, it's also very moist.
apart from不能与 away混用,例如:
> *The cake is apartdelicious, it's also very moist.*(错误)
三、近义词与反义词
近义词:
apart:separated, divided, unconnected
away:from(如 from me)、aside(如 aside)
反义词:
apart:connected, united
away:near, close
四、总结
两者在表达“远离”时, apart更侧重距离和状态, away更侧重动作和位置。选择时需根据语境决定使用副词还是形容词,以及是否需要表达“除……之外”的含义。
