adj.(形容词)

1. hard作“困难的”解时,指要消耗很大的体力去做某事,有时也指精神上的困难。

3. hard在句中可用作定语或表语,其后可跟for〔to, with〕等介词短语、动词不定式、that从句。
4. hard是对主语具有评价意义的形容词,说明主语在哪方面“难”。接动词不定式时,句子的主语不是该不定式的主语,而是该不定式的宾语。

adv.(副词)

1. hard修饰动态动词,位于实义动词之后。

1. hard一般表示“困难的”。

   This is a hard question to answer.
   这是个难题，不好回答。

2. hard在hard of hearing（有些聋的）中有特殊含义“艰难的”，注意不适合用在别处；
3. hard后可接of和表示动作的名词。

adj.(形容词)

hard at, hard on

这两个短语都是“动词+介词(短语)”型短语,在句中作表语。其区别主要在意思上:hard at意为“努力工作〔学习〕”,其后多接work, study, task等名词; 而hard on意为“严格对待…”,其后多接表示人的名词,间或也可接表示事物的名词。

hard, difficult

这两个词均可表示“困难的”,其区别是：

difficult是较正式的用词,主要指智力方面的困难,多意味着“复杂”“难以处理”“难以了解”“需要智慧或技巧”; hard是口语用词,主要是指体力方面的困难,多意味着“不易做”。试比较:

Passing the examination is a difficult task.

通过这次考试并不容易。

The making of a road is a hard job.

筑路是项艰苦的工作。

hard, firm, solid

这三个词都可表示“坚硬的”“坚定的”。其区别是：

firm指组织与构造是坚韧的,不容易因拉伸、弯曲而变形,暗示稳定或坚固; hard指厚实或坚硬,能抵抗压力,几乎不能压缩、拉伸或挖掘或极度执著,有顽固之意; solid指结构很坚固,密度一致,有很强的稳定性,能抵抗任何压力。例如:

I took a firm hold on the rope.我牢牢地抓住了绳子。

The ground was too hard to dig.这块地太硬没法挖。

The buildings are surrounded with solid walls.这座建筑周围用坚硬的墙围着。

hard up, lower classes, poor

这三个词(组)都用于描写一些人,这些人不能获得足够的钱物以保证像样的生活水平。其区别是：

poor是其中最广义的词,可指长期或临时的物质或精神的匮乏; hard up是poor的口头用语,常指短期物质的匮乏,例如发工资前借钱买午餐或庄稼歉收时的农民,都可用hard up; lower classes习惯上用于指在任何社会中社会地位和经济地位最低的一些人,那些所谓lower classes的人通常是穷的,然而如今该词常用作带贬义的势利语,指那些胸无大志,缺少教养的人,这些人经济上也许贫也许富。例如:

If prices continue to advance, poor people will find it hard to live.如果物价继续上涨,穷人的日子就更不好过了。

I am hard up for money this month.我这个月手头拮据。

He is a member of lower classes.他是下层社会的一员。

adv.(副词)

hard, hardly

1.hard可作形容词或副词; 而hardly只能用作副词。
