问
（1）The water is clean. (2) The water is clear.
上面两个句子的意思相同吗？
答
形容词 clean 与形容词 clear 的意思虽然相近,但并不相同。clean 是指“干净的”“无污物的”,如 clean clothes(干净的衣服),clean snow(干净的雪),the clean centre of the city(干干净净的市中心)。clear 则是指“清澈的”“清晰的”“晴朗的”,如 clear water(清澈的水),clear crystals (透明的水晶石),a clear day(晴天)。用于转义时,clear 表示“清楚的”“明白的”,见 clear 。请做下面的英语试题:
It is very clean that the workers won't be able to finish the hard work on time. A B C D
