figure is used to talk about amounts of money, but digit is usually used with 'number', when it means a series of figures to identify sth, not an amount. * figure 用于指金钱的数额； digit 通常与 number 一词连用，用于指识别事物的一串数字，而不是某个数量◆the deal has been signed for a seven-figure sum.这笔涉及七位数金额的交易已达成。◆she dialled the four-digit extension number.她拨了四位数的分机号。either word can be used to talk about an increase, although digit is more common than figure in american english.这两个词均可用于表示增加，但在美式英语中 digit 较 figure 常用◆the company is currently experiencing double figure / digit growth.该公司目前正经历两位数的增长。 digit is used more often than figure in texts about the use of technology and numbers appearing on equipment such as radio alarm clocks, calculators, cash machines, etc.与 figure 相比，digit 较常用于有关技术应用的文本里；此外，收音机闹钟、计算器、自动取款机之类的设备上所显示的数字的位数亦较常用 digit 表示。■ character [countable] (rather formal or technical术语) a letter, sign, mark or symbol used in writing, printing or on computers（书写、印刷或计算机上的）文字，字母，符号◆this size of type produces a line 30 characters long.用这种字号，一行可长达 30 个字符。◆these are the chinese characters meaning 'wind' and 'water'.这些汉字的意思是 wind （风）和 water （水）。■ mark [countable] (used in compounds用于复合词) a written or printed sign that you use in order to write clearly, showing things such as where sentences end符号；记号◆punctuation marks标点符号◆a question / exclamation mark问号；感叹号■ sign [countable] (used in compounds用于复合词) a mark used to represent sth, especially in mathematics（尤指数学）符号；记号◆a pound / dollar sign英镑／元的符号◆a plus / minus sign加号；减号note 辨析 symbol or sign?apart from being used to talk about the letters representing chemical elements, symbol usually refers to a shape or small picture with a fixed meaning. a sign is likely to be more simple, consisting of one or two lines, such as a dollar sign or an equals sign. the meaning of a symbol may be less well-known than the meaning of a sign. * symbol 除了用以指代表化学元素的字母符号外，通常还指具有固定含义的形状或小图。sign 可能更简单，由一两条线组成，如 dollar sign （元的符号 $）或 equals sign （等号 =）。一个 symbol 的含义可能不如一个 sign 的含义那样为人所熟知。numberto make a particular number when added together总计；共计；数以⋯计◆the crowd numbered more than a thousand.聚集的人群共计一千多人。◆we numbered 20 (= there were 20 of us in the group).我们总共 20 人。note 辨析 total, add up to sth, amount to sth or number? add up to and number can be used to emphasize the process of calculating a total through mathematics or counting; total and amount to sth focus more on the number/amount rather than the process of arriving at the result. total and amount to sth are used especially in business writing when describing the performance of a company or industry. number usually has people as the subject of the sentence; total is the only other verb that can be used like this. * add up to 和 number 强调通过计算得出总数的过程； total 和 amount to sth 更着重于得出的数目或数量，而非计算的过程。total 和 amount to sth 尤用于描述公司或产业业绩的商业写作中。number 的主语通常是人，本组同义词中只有 total 也可这么用◆the crew totalled / numbered sixteen.机组人员共计十六人。◆the crew added up to/amounted to sixteen. number [countable] a word or symbol that represents an amount or quantity数字；数；数量◆think of a number and multiply it by two想出一个数，然后乘以二。◆the houses on this side of the road are all even numbers (= 2, 4, 6, etc.).路这边的房子门牌号都是偶数。◆pick out all the odd numbers (= 1, 3, 5, etc.).找出所有的奇数。◆'so you owe me 28 dollars?'
