同近义词辨析

operation, deed, performance, action, act

这组词都有“行为、行动”的意思，其区别是：

operation多指一连串行动或行为的完成方式。

deed较庄重用词，除泛指各种行为外，还可用于指某种高尚或伟大的行为，故常译作“功绩，业绩”。

performance主要指行动的方式方法。

action普通用词，着重行动的过程。

act一般指具体的、短暂的或个别的行为，强调行为的完成及其效果。

deed, action, act

deed 为正式用语，多指伟大的，显著的，感人的行为。如：They thanked him for his good deeds. (他们感谢他做的好事。)

action 较正式，往往指不止包含一个步骤，且持续时间较长的行为或行动，强调行为的过程。如：Actions are more important than words. (行动比语言更重要。)

act 用作名词时，与action, deed均可表“行为”，“举动”。Act指时间较短的个人行动或行为，强调结果。如：The farmer caught the boys in the act of stealing his apples. (农夫在孩子们正偷他的苹果时把他们抓住了。)
