【词义辨析】
contact, touch,
contact: 强调紧密接触的两个物体之间的相互关系。也可用作比喻。
touch: 指具体意义“接触”时,强调动作;表抽象意义时,侧重“联系”。

meet: 普通用词,本义指双方或多方从不同方向或相反方向作相对运动,最终相碰(遇)。
encounter: 通常指遇到困难或挫折,也指偶然或意外地相遇。
confront: 不可避免地,面对面地相遇,也指敢于正视困难或问题。
face: 侧重双方静止地面对面,或指充满勇气、信心和决心去正视人或事。
contact: 多指通过书信、电话或直接会面和别人联系,口语用词。
【词语用法】
1.contact作名词时,既可作单数,也可作复数。英国人习惯用其单数形式,而美国人则习惯用其复数形式,表示“联系”的意思。

2.contact作动词时,指“与……联系”。
During my stay in the city I contacted several teachers.
3.表示“开始与某人接触”时,可以用以下来两种表达方式:come into contact with和come in contact with。前者比后者使用更频繁;
4.make contact with 表示“与某人进行接触”;
5.contact的几个注意点:
有时可指“被联系的人”。
I have got this information from one of my contacts, who used to live overseas.
contact还常有“跟(无线电台)通信”或“跟……交战”的意思。

纠正:The painter lived more than a decade in Europe, where he could be in contact with other cubists.

二.take:v. 拿,取,执行,需要,接受,理解,修(课程),花费,吃(喝),认为,搭乘 n. 拿取,取得物

2.take可指“买”。
I will take this pen.
我要买这支笔。
注意,表示“买”时,并不可以都是take。不可说I went into the shop to take a pen,要用buy;
3.用在指房屋的词的前时,take通常指“租赁”。
They have taken the cottage for the winter.
他们为了过冬租赁个小屋。
4.在美国英语中,take in指“参观”或“观看”。
