知识点解析

说起consider,小编不由想起由此衍生开的两个形容词:considerable/ considerate。这两个词长得比较像,很多人经常搞混。今天我们一起看看它们的区别在哪里(☄⊙ω⊙)☄

1). considerable = a large number of, adj. 相当大 (或多) 的;重要的,值得考虑的

记忆:considerable,以able结尾,表能...的,能够考虑的,东西当然是量越大越值得考虑。

: This task requires considerable time and effort.
这项任务需要大量的时间和精力。

He owns considerable real estate.
他拥有相当可观的房地产。

That family owns a considerable amount of land.
那个家族拥有大量的土地。

Damage to the building was considerable.
这栋建筑物的损坏相当大。

2). considerate = be very gentle and careful, 意为:考虑周到的,体贴的,深思熟虑的

记忆:considerate, 以rate结尾,含有分级的意思,分不同的级别来考虑,当然是考虑周到,很体贴啦。

如:小编我是一个体贴的人。
I am a considerate man.

小编的盆友经常对我说:你太好了,想得这么周到。
It's very nice of you to be so considerate.

说不定有一天,你的某某对你说:你真是太体贴了。
You are so considerate.

后来周围的人都说:他是一个非常体贴的好丈夫。
He is a very good and considerate husband.

或者:她是一个非常体贴的好妻子。
She is a very good and considerate wife.

不过,体贴都是相互的,本菌认为:一个人应该尽量为他人着想。
One should try and be considerate of other people.

好啦,以上就是considerate与considerable的用法区别,各位少侠都掌握了吗?
