Test TwentySix 近义词辨析 range, reach, scope, compass, scale 这是一组表示“范围”的名词，其侧重点各有不同。 range 代表的是一个可以测量的范围，在这个范围内包括一系列可变化的数量。range还特指视力、听力所能达到的距离和枪炮的射程。 reach 特指伸手可达到的距离或非常近的距离，其比喻含义指能力、权力、影响等可达到的范围。 scope 指人们所处理、研究的事物的“范围”以及所掌握、控制的“面积”。scope的比喻含义指的是所掌握的知识的宽度，即“眼界，见识”。 compass 在意义上与scope相同，是正式用语，表示活动、兴趣、能力的“界限，范围”。 scale 特指刻度、标度的范围，也指品级、级别的规模和大小的范围： The bird now came within my range of vision.那只小鸟飞入了我的视野。 Keep the pills out of the reach of the children!把药放到孩子们够不到的地方! Is Romanticism in the scope of your book?你的书涉及到浪漫主义吗? Construction is not within the compass of the department.工程建设不属这个部门管辖。 This thermometer has two scales marked on it, one in Fahrenheit and the other in Centigrade.温度计上有两种刻度，一种是华氏，另一种是摄氏。 scarce, rare 这组词均含有“稀少的，少有的”的意思。 rare 强调某种东西是很少见到的，或某种现象是很少发生的，具有珍贵、贵重的意味。它的反义词是common。 scarce 形容的事物不一定有珍贵之意，而是指有些东西(通常为日用品)因匮乏或难以得到而变得稀少或缺少。它的反义词是plentiful或abundant。此外，修饰时间表示频率时，则只能用rare,而不能用scarce,此时rare的含义是“不经常发生的” The panda is one of the rare animals in the world.熊猫是世界上稀有动物之一。 Water is scarce in Sahara.撒哈拉沙漠上缺水。 全真模拟试题 1. ____ plastics, the machine is light in weight. A.
