标题: 初中英语词汇辨析：stupid/foolish/silly与“愚蠢的”

这三个形容词是同义词，都有“愚蠢的”意思。但用法略有不同：

1. stupid用于人或事时指“智力差的”、“反应迟钝的”，“理解力、学习能力差的”。程度最强，可用于骂人或责备等。如：

Mary made a stupid mistake.玛丽犯了一个笨拙的错误。

He is very stupid in learning maths.他学数学很笨。

He was so stupid as to forget his own name.他笨到连自己的名字也记不起来。

2. foolish指“无头脑的”、“缺乏常识的”、“缺乏判断能力的”。尤其在口语中广泛使用。如：

It was a foolish thing to pick a fight with his neighour.和他的邻居找碴儿打架是一件蠢事。He is foolish to throw away such a chance.他真蠢，丢掉了这么一个机会。

It is foolish of you to say so (you are foolish to say so).你说这话真蠢。

3. silly指“头脑简单的、不懂事的”、“傻头傻脑的”，使人觉得可笑，带有感情色彩。如：

Stop asking such silly questions！别再问这样傻的问题了！

It was silly of you (You were silly)to trust him.你真傻竟相信了他。

You silly child.你这个傻孩子。（并无太多的贬意）
