break,destroy,ruin,wreck,damage,spoil

這些動(dòng)詞均有“破壞，損壞”之意。 break普通用詞，指某物因被打破或撕破而受到破壞，可指有形或無(wú)形的破壞。 destroy多指徹底地、毀滅性地破壞，含導(dǎo)致無(wú)用，不能或很難再修復(fù)的意味。 ruin多指因外部原因而受到嚴(yán)重破壞或毀滅，側(cè)重破壞的徹底性，也可用于引申意義。 wreck側(cè)重指船只、車輛、房屋等受到嚴(yán)重破壞或完全毀壞，也可指計(jì)劃、健康受到損害。 damage多指對(duì)無(wú)生命物體的損害，造成降低價(jià)值、破壞功能等后果。 spoil強(qiáng)調(diào)不僅會(huì)削弱力量、精力或價(jià)值，而且會(huì)導(dǎo)致不可避免的毀滅。
