  • 词义辨析

    lack, be deficient in, want

    这组词(组)都可表示“缺乏”。它们的区别在于:

    1.lack指完全没有或有而不足,所缺之物可好可坏,在用法上, lack 后面不能接动名词。

    2.want指缺乏值得有、希望有或为了完整性而必需的东西,在用法上want也可以跟动名词作宾语,而且用主动形式表示被动的意义。例如:

    She is wanting in common sense.她缺乏常识。

    You shall never want while I have any money left.只要我有余钱,就不会叫你缺少什么。

    3.be deficient in则是具体或明确地指出、说明在某方面缺少或不足。例如:

    This food is deficient in iron.这种食物缺乏铁。

    Nothing was deficient in this project.这项工程什么都不缺。

    lack, fall short of

    这两者意思并不相同:lack的意思是“缺乏”;而fall short of的意思是“没有达到”。例如:

    He has the ability to work well, but he lacks confidence.他有能力把工作做好,但他缺乏信心。

    The movie fell short of expectation. 影片没有人们想象中的好。

    The salary increases fell short of what they expected. 工资增加没有他们期待的那样多。

    lack for, want for

    这两个短语都可表示“缺乏必要的或想要的东西”,意义相近,常可互换,只是前者表示“客观缺乏什么”,而后者则进一步表明“主观上想要”,且lack for的意味比want for的意味弱。例如:

    As he is very rich he lacks for nothing.他很富有,什么也不缺。

    We should not want for food.我们不会缺少食物。
