Ⅶ．1．destroy一词最为常见，主要强调破坏的力度之大和彻底，一般不带感情或修辞色彩。

demolish和raze通常用于巨大物体，如大型建筑物等。

demolish常用引申义，指任何复合体的被毁，如demolishatheorywithafewincisivecomments。

意即“用几句锋利的评语推翻某种理论”。

而raze几乎无一例外地用于指建筑物的被毁。

annihilate在这些词中所表示的损坏程度最为强烈，字面意思是“化为乌有”，但实际上往往用于指对人或物的严重损伤。

如说annihilateanenemyforce，是指使敌军遭到重创，不仅没有还手之力。

而且没有招架之功。

如说annihilateone’sopponentinadebate，是指彻底驳倒对手。

decay常指某物自然而然地逐渐衰败腐化。

如：

Histeethhavebeguntodecay．（他的牙齿开始老化变坏。

）rot指有机物质，如蔬菜等因菌毒感染而腐败变质，如：

rottingapples（烂了的苹果）。

spoil用于非正式文体，常指食物变质。

Fishspoilsquicklyinsummer。

（鱼在夏天极易变质。

）molder用于指物体缓慢、逐步地腐朽。

Oldbuildingsmolderaway．（老房子渐渐腐烂了。

）disintegrate意指把某物从整体变为碎片或一个个部分。

rocksdisintegratedbyfrostandrain（被霜和雨蚀裂成碎块的岩石）。

decompose指将物质分解为其构成成分。

Watercallbedecompose（bedecomposed）intohydrogenandoxygen．（水可分解成氧和氧。

）该词还可用来替代rot，使语气略显委婉。
