2.set about接名词、代词或动名词; set out可接带to的动词不定式。

例如:

We called the picnic off when it set in to rain.天开始下雨,我们把野餐取消了。

He set about his work as soon as he had finished his meal.他一吃完饭就开始工作了。

The soldiers set forth for Shenyang.战士们开始向沈阳进发。

They set out for Britain yesterday.他们昨天动身到英国去了。

set sb to-v, set sb v-ing

这两个短语在意思上有所区别：set后接名词或代词加现在分词是“使某人或某物处于某种状态”的意思。如果加动词不定式则是“叫某人着手做某事”的意思。

set, lay, place, put

这组词的共同意思是“放置”。其区别是：

lay强调把某物放置或使某物处于水平位置;而set指使某物处于直立的位置;put强调把某物移进或移出某处或某位置,或使处于某种地位、情况或关系的动作;place则不强调动作,而强调某一确定的地点或情况。例如:

You placed me in a difficult position.你使我陷入了窘境。

I put the suitcase on the table.我把手提箱搁在桌上。

They were setting the table for dinner.他们正在摆餐具准备开饭。

set up, build, construct, erect, establish, found

这组词的共同意思是“建造”“建立”。其区别是：

build是本组词中最常用者,指一般的“建造,建立”,可以表示具体的、特殊的以及比喻的和抽象的意义; construct强调“复杂性”,不强调花费的劳动(特别是体力劳动),而侧重动脑筋解决建造过程中的问题,即“构思”;erect强调“高度”,即竖立起来;establish表示稳固、持久地建立起具体或抽象的事物;found着重在建立之前打下基础;set up着重起点。例如:

The house was built of wood.这栋房子是用木头盖起来的。

They are planning to construct an office building.他们正在计划建一栋办公楼。

A skyscraper has been erected.一栋摩天大楼拔地而起。

My father established this firm forty years ago.我的父亲40年前建立了这家公司。

The house was founded on solid rock.这幢房子建在坚硬的岩石之上。

When was this company set up?这家公司是什么时候成立的?

set up, put up

这两个短语在表示“竖起,挂起”和“建立”时可互换,只是put up更常用些,但在表示“成立”“建立”某一机构、团体时,只能用set up。

下面两个句子的意思相同：

The jacket sets perfectly.

The jacket sits perfectly.

这件夹克衫非常合身。

set, band, circle, crowd, gang, group, herd, host, mass, mob, multitude

这组词的共同意思 是“一伙人”。其区别在于：

1.从组成上说：band常指有共同目的的、有领导者的一群人。 circle指因志同道合而形成的圈子或结成的团体，聚会频繁，文明高雅。crowd指毫无秩序地挤在一起的人群， 含有混乱、拥挤的意味。gang指为一个目标而聚在一起的一伙人， 常指在一起干坏事的人。group既可指有组织、有秩序的一群人， 也可指为一定目的临时聚在一起的一伙人；可指志趣相投的人，也可指社会团体；关系可密切，也可以是泛泛之交。herd 指有盲目追随心理的一群人。host指散落开来的一群人，也指军队或备有武装的人。mass指群众， 民众。mob指乌合之众或心怀不满而聚在一起寻衅滋事的一群人。multitude常指人数庞大的人群。set指有共同社会地位或相同目的的社会团体，也可泛指广泛的人群， 有时可指势力集团。

2.从用法上说：mass常用于复数形式；set常用于单数形式。

3.从修辞色彩上说：band, gang, herd, mob多含贬义；set指势力集团时也含有贬义。

4.从语体上说：host, set是口语用词；multitude是正式用词或较陈旧用词。

lay，place，put，set

这些动词均有“放”之意。

lay指小心地把人或物平放或横放，侧重动作安稳。

place较正式用词，指把某物放在一个正确的位置上，侧重动作的正确。

put普通用词，含义较广泛。指把人或物置于某处，并将其留在该处。

set普通用词，指为了某种目的而将人或物放在一定位置上。指物时多指立着放。
