出自：N. Carpenter
The day was overcast and drippy.
出自：S. King
day的详细讲解：
day的基本意思是“一天”,指二十四小时长的一段时间,是可数名词。也可指“日间,白天”,既可用作可数名词,又可用作不可数名词,通常不加冠词。
day也可表示“工作日”,指一天二十四小时之内的工作时间,是可数名词。
day还可作“时期; 时代; 寿命”解,常用复数形式,若用单数常须与my, their等物主代词连用。
day还有“全盛时期,黄金时代”的意思,是单数名词,不用于复数形式。
day间或表示“胜利,竞争,战斗”,是不可数名词,前面接定冠词。
Day常用在表示法定的或宗教节日的短语中,其前不加冠词。
day可用作量词, a day可表示“每天”。
当定语从句所修饰的词是day时,关系词that/when/which多省略。例如:His father died the day when he was born.他父亲在他出生那一天去世了。
day and night和night and day,有的词典认为两者意思有些不同:day and night等于continuously,用于以昼为主的场合, night and day等于always,用于以夜为主的场合,实际上,两者现已无区别地使用,都是“日夜不停地,日日夜夜地”的意思。
the day before yesterday(前天), the day after tomorrow(后天)等这些短语里的the在美式英语中可以省略。例如:He left for London (the) day before yesterday.他前天启程去伦敦了。
save a day, save the day
save a day的意思是“省了一天的时间”, save the day的意思则是“反败为胜,转危为安”。例如:
We saved a day by taking a plane there.我们乘飞机去那里,因而节省了一天的时间。
The team was behind, but at the last minute Tom saved the day with a touchdown.这支球队一直落后,然而在最后的时刻汤姆一次底线得分使球队反败为胜。
by day, by the day
前者意思是“在白天”; 而后者意思是“按日计算”。例如:
We travelled by day and stayed at inns at night.我们白天旅行,晚上住在客栈。
In some countries, most of the workers get their pay by the day.在某些国家里,大部分工人是按日计酬的。
of a day, of the day
前者意思是“短促”; 而后者意思是“当时,当代”。例如:
It is nothing than a stuff of a day.这无非是昙花一现而已。
It was a twice-told tale of the day.这便是当时传诵一时的老话题。
day after day, day by day
这两个短语意义和用法都不相同。其区别是：
1.day by day在句中用作副词,作状语; 而day after day除用作状语外,还可用作主语、宾语等。
2.day after day的意思是“每天,天天”,表示动作的重复和时间的长久,强调连续性; 而day by day含有“逐渐转变”的意味,常和turn, grow, change等含有转变意义的动词连用。
every day, daily
两者都可作“每天”解。但两者所表达的意境色彩不全一样:
We do not have lessons every day.
我们不是天天都有课。
We do not have lessons daily.
我们每天都没有课。
这两个词都有“日,天”的意思。其区别在于:
1.date指某种事发生的“日期”,不一定只指某一天,可以统指年、月、日,一般用单数; day指一周中的“某一天,一整天”等,意为“白天,日子”,又专指星期几。例如:
Has the date for the meeting fixed?开会的日期决定了没有?
The first day of a week is Sunday.一个星期的第一天是星期天。
2.在询问“某天是什么日子”时,两词都可用,但意义不同, date问的是“日期”,而day问的是“星期几”。例如:
What day is it today?
今天是星期几?
What is the date today?
今天是几号?
day, festival, holiday, leave, vacation
这五个词都有“假日”的意思。其区别在于:holiday来源于宗教的节日、假日,是普通用词,多用于英式英语中,指的是一个人在一年中不干工作的那段时间,也可用来表示一两天的短假期; day表示法定节日,多用于专有名词中; festival指民俗或宗教节日,并含有定期欢度的意味; leave指政府工作人员或军人的假期; vacation用于大学停课放假长达多周的假日或法院停止开庭时间,在美式英语中,凡是较长时间的休假都可用这个词。例如:
August and September are the months of the year during which most English people take their holidays.一年中8、9两个月是大多数英国人休假的月份。
We celebrate National Day every year.我们每年都庆祝国庆节。
Christmas is one of the festivals of the Christian church.圣诞节是基督教的节日之一。
The soldiers will go home on leave once every two years.士兵们每两年回家休假一次。
Three vacations occur in the course of the year, viz, two weeks at Christmas, ten days at Easter and the usual two months in summer.一年中有三个假期,即圣诞节两周,复活节十天以及通常的两个月暑假。
这两个名词均有“日”之意。
:date指具体的年、月、日，或指年代、时代。
:day泛指任何一天，或指含有“一昼夜”意义的一天，也可指工作日。可用复数表时代、时期。
一天早上,在上学的路上我碰到她了。
误 One day morning,I ran into her on my way to school.
正 One morning,I ran into her on my way to school.
析 “一天早上”应译为one morning,不能译为one day morning。它既可以指过去的某天早上,也可指将来的某天早上。
明天是儿童节。
误 Tomorrow will be the Children's Day.
正 Tomorrow will be Children's Day.
析 在含有day的节日名称前,通常不加定冠词the。
下雨天他们通常做室内运动。
误 They usually play indoor games in rainy days.
正 They usually play indoor games on rainy days.
析 表示“在特定的某一天”用介词on,如指一天的过程用介词in。
你将会在一两天内收到她的信。
误 You will receive her letter in one day or two.
正 You will receive her letter in a day or two.
正 You will receive her letter in one or two days.
析 表示“在一两天内”,应该说in a day or two或in one or two days,但不能说in one day or two。
我整整5年没有见过她了。
误 I haven't seen her for five years to day.
正 I haven't seen her for five years to the day.
析 表示时间确切到一点也不差时,应该用...to the day。
他们白天休息,夜间旅行。
误 They rested during day and travelled by night.
正 They rested by day and travelled by night.
析 “在白天”是by day,用介词by而不用during。
☆ 直接源自中古英语的dai，意为白天。

point的详细讲解：
point作为名词使用时，通常用短语“point of view”来表达一个“观点”或者“意见”；
当表达“这是...的观点”时，通常用“from...point of view”，例如from my point of view...(我的观点是...)；
point在美式英语中也用作“钢笔尖”或者“学分”，相当于英式英语中的“nib”与“credit”；
当point作为动词使用时，通常用“piont out”来表达“指出”，后可接双宾语。
They pointed us out the building.They pointed the building out to us.两句都指他们为我们指出那座建筑物。
point用作名词时的意思比较多,可作“要点,论点,观点,尖端,尖儿,点; 小数点,标点,(某一)时刻,(某一)地点,分数,得分,条款,细目”“特点,特征,长处”等解,均用作可数名词。作“目的,意图”解时,是不可数名词,多与the 连用。
in point意思是“切题的,恰当的”; in point of意思是“就…而言,在…方面”; make a point of sth 意思是“特别重视某一事项”; not to put too fine a point on it意思是“不客气地说,直截了当地说”。
point用作动词的意思是“削尖”“弄尖”“使尖锐”,引申表示为“指向”“对准”“加强”“强调”等。
point既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时接名词或代词作宾语; 用作不及物动词时,常与介词to,at,towards等连用,表示“指向某位置或方向”,或者表示“表明”“暗示”等。
at the point of, in point of, on the point of
这组短语的意思并不完全相同。其区别在于：
1.at the point of和on the point of的意思都是“将近…的时候”“即将…的时候”,前者多接名词,后者多接动名词。例如:
The boy hurt in the accident lay at the point of death for weeks, then he got well.事故中受伤的男孩生命垂危达数星期,后来他恢复了健康。
I'm glad you've come.I was on the point of telephoning you, but you've saved me the trouble now.你来了,我真高兴。刚才我正要给你打电话,但现在你让我省事了。
2.in point of意思是“关于”“就…而论”。例如:
In point of that test,I have discussed with him. 关于那个试验,我已经和他讨论了。
3.on the point of比 at the point of表示的时间更迫近。试体会：
The man was at the point of death.
这人快要死了。
The man was on the point of death.
这人就要死了。
point by point, point for point, point to point
这组短语的意思并不相同。其区别在于：
1.point by point的意思是“一点一点地”。例如:
The fire burns down point by point.火一点一点地变弱了。
2.point for point的意思是“一点一点地对比”。例如:
Point for point you must choose between the two men.一点一点地对比你必须在这两人中间挑一个。
3.point to point的意思是“从一点到另一点”。例如:
We advanced from point to point.我们从一点走向另一点。
point of view, advice, counsel, opinion, view
这组词(组)的共同意思是“意见”或“建议”。其区别在于：
1.point of view指看问题的角度,着眼于对事物的考虑方法,多指别人的观点。例如:
It is wrong to approach a problem from a metaphysical point of view.用形而上学的观点来看待问题是错误的。
2.opinion一般指对事物的看法,包括从纯个人的判断到较权威性的评论。例如:
He always imposes his opinion upon others.他总是把自己的意见强加于人。
The opinion is accepted as true.这个意见被认为是正确的。
Most of my classmates accord in that opinion.我们班大多数同学都是那个意见。
3.counsel是正式用语,多指重要的或具有权威性的意见。例如:
You had better follow his counsel.你最好听从他的忠告。
They refused to listen to the old man's counsel.他们不听老人的劝告。
4.view表示对某事物的特殊看法,特指个人学识与感情影响的意见,常用复数形式。例如:
His views are conservative.他的见解是保守的。
5.advice通常指向某人提出意见或看法,促使对方去做或不做某事以免犯错误,有劝告的意味。例如:
He asked me to give him some advice.他请我给他提些建议。
I accepted his advice in buying a new car.我听了他的话买了辆新车。
She countered that her advice had not been heeded.她反驳说她的建议未被重视。
下面各组中两个句子意思相同：
She pricked herself with the point of a needle.
She pricked herself on the point of a needle.
她被针扎了一下。
The roof seems on the point of falling in.
The roof seems at the point of falling in.
屋顶眼看就要塌下来了。
He made a point of drawing him into the conversation.
He made it a point to draw him into the conversation.
他决意要引导他发言。
point at, point to
这两个短语的意思有所区别：point to的意思是“指向”; 而point at的意思是“指着”,含有某种目的性。以事物作主语时,用point to更常见。例如:
The needle of a compass points to the north.罗盘指向北方。
We must teach our children that it is not polite and ill-bred to point at people.我们必须教育自己的孩子,用手指人是不礼貌的,没教养的。
另外, point at可分开用,即point后直接跟名词或代词作宾语, at表示方向; 而point to不能这样用。例如:
Point the gun at the target.用枪对准靶子。
point, aim, level, train
这组词的共同意思是“对准”“瞄准”,它们之间的区别是:
1.瞄准方法不同:aim指端起枪瞄准; train指把枪放在对准其目标的位置上; level指把枪放在水平位置上瞄准; point则指以某物的一端或尖端对准某一点。例如:
The army trained its cannon on the fort.军队把大炮对准了要塞。
The second sentry leveled his halberd at the parson's breast.第二个警卫把他的戟对准了牧师的胸口。
He pointed his finger at me.他用手指着我。
2.搭配范围不同:aim和train可以表示以镜头对准; 而level和point不能这样用。例如可以说He trained the camera upon the children.它把相机对准孩子们。
3.连用的介词不同:aim与at, for连用; train与on〔upon〕连用; level与at, against 连用; 而point则与at, to连用。
4.使用场合不同:aim for多见于较正式的文体中。
point out, indicate, show
这组词(组)都有“表示”“表明”的意思。其区别在于：
1.point out更强调“指出”。例如:
She pointed out that the closing date for making applications had passed.她指出申请的截止日期已经过了。
2.show通常用于一眼就可以看清的东西,多用于有意识的行为。例如:
Does the mark of the wound still show?伤痕还看得出吗?
Tickets, please. Show your tickets.票,请把票拿出来。
3.indicate常用于无意识的行为。例如:
A signpost indicated the right road for us to follow.一个路标给我们指示应走的路。
The state of his clothes indicates clearly that he has been playing football.他的衣服表明他一直在踢足球。
现在哭也没有什么用了。
