adj.形容词
calm, peaceful, quiet, silent, still这组形容词的共同意思是“安静”“平静”“寂静”。其区别在于: 1.在修饰环境时各词所指的状态为:calm指风平浪静; peaceful指没有战争或骚乱; quiet指没有吵闹干扰; still指完全没有声音。例如: The sea was calm yesterday.昨天海水是平静的。

v.动词
calm, compose这组词的共同意思是“平静”。其区别是： compose着重指“动作”,即控制自己的思想情绪或感情,使其“平静”; 而calm着重指“状态”,即镇定而显不出迷惑或兴奋。 calm, quieten, settle这三个词都有“使镇定”的意思。它们之间的差别是: 1.calm强调了先前混乱的状态,然后靠判断力、意志或信仰而恢复正常。 2.settle指采取某种措施、安排而平息了激动或兴奋,使思想和身体处于一种轻松状态。例如: A vacation will settle your nerves.休假可镇定你的神经。
A word from his father was enough to settle him.他父亲的一句话就足以使他安静下来。
