词组 | charge/fee |
释义 | charge/fee 【问】 What are your fees for a room?请问这句话的错误何在? 【答】 fee是指付给团体的费用(报名费、学费、会费)和自由职业者(如律师、医生、家庭教师)的酬金。例如: 1. The doctor’s fee was higher than we expected. 医生的费用比我们预料得要高。 2. The lawer’s fees amounted to a thousand dollars. 律师诉讼费计一千美元。 charge则是指因某种服务而索取的费用(a fee that is demanded for a service),如旅馆费、理发费等: 1. The charges for electricity and gas will be increased next year. 明年电和煤气的费用将上涨。 2. His charges are very moderate. 他的要价不高。 据此不难看出,你所提出的病句应改为: What is the charge (are your charges) for a room? 赵振才 编著.英语常见问题解答大词典.哈尔滨:黑龙江人民出版社.1998.第249页. |
