n.(名词)

1. life的基本意思是指使人或其他生物的活动、成长,从而有别于死的物体、岩石或其他无机物体的“生命”,也可指一切有生命的东西,即“生物”。life也可指“人生,人的存在”或人在一生中的经历,即“生活”。life还可指“人命,性命”。引申可指“一生,终身”“生命力,活力”“生活方式”。
2. life泛指“生命”时是不可数名词;泛指“性命”时是可数名词;泛指“生活”时是不可数名词,其前不加冠词,但指某种有比较具体内容的“生活”“生活方式”时则是可数名词。
3. for life的意思是“一辈子,一生”,当所指的人为复数时,也可以用复数形式for lives。
4. for one's life的意思是“拼命地”;for the life of one的意思是“无论如何”,只能用于否定结构。

n.(名词)

My life is really dreadful.我的生活真是糟透了。

He works for his living as a teacher.他靠教书为生。
