二、詞義辨析:


kindle,fire,ignite,light

這些動詞均含“點燃、着火”之意。kindle指艱難或緩慢地把可燃料點燃,可用於比喻。fire普通用詞,指將某物點燃使其燃燒起來,火勢可大可小。ignite多用於科技文體,指使某物受熱直到燃燒或發光,也可指用火花使易燃物迅速燃燒起來。 light普通用詞,指點燃易燃物,使其能發光,滿足各種需要。


三、詞義辨析:


discharge,dismiss,fire

這些動詞都有“解僱,開除”之意。discharge語氣較重,指有理由的解僱,含幾乎不再複用的意味。dismiss正式用詞,是這組詞中語氣最輕的一個詞,一般只有從上文才能看解僱的原因或理由。fire口語用詞,多指被斷然地突然解僱,其行動猶如開槍一樣乾淨利落。
