157.四个“完全”。all,total,whole,entire
(1)all:所有,全部。一般是在名词前面使用,或者作代词。如:
All the students have come.
所有的同学都来了。
(2)total:全部的;完全的;总计的。强调总量,意为“全部的”“总计的”,实际上就是对现存的整体作精确的估计。如:
By the end of the year,the total money collected had come to over ten thousands dollars,all of which were sent to Africa.
到年底为止,筹集到的全部款项达到一万多美元,所有这些钱全部送往非洲了。
(3)whole:整体;全部。常用来强调某事物的完整性,即没有任何部分被忽略或舍去,相当于every part。在日常语言中,whole远比entire用得多。如:(https://www.daowen.com)
The whole city was cut off from electricity.
整个城市的电力都被切断了。
(4)entire:全部的,整个的;完全的与whole在许多情况下可以通用。如:
The people’s government has the support of the entire(whole)population.
人民政府已经得到全民的支持。
