Site /sa?t/

n. 位置, 場所, 地點

v. 使坐落在; 設置

The noun site refers to a piece of land (e.g., building site). As a verb, to site means to position in a place(e.g., I will site the slide near the swings.)

作為名詞,site指一片場地(例如,建筑工地);作為名詞,site的意思是確定某一位置(例如,我將把滑梯放在秋千附近)。

 

場地

 

Examples:

There are three landfill sites in the local vicinity.

附近有三個垃圾填埋場。

Mr. Dodds claimed his tools had been stolen from the archaeological site.

多茲先生斷定他的工具是從考古現(xiàn)場被偷走的。

Cite /sa?t/

v. 引用;傳訊;想起;表彰

The verb to cite means to quote, to refer to, to summon to appear before a court of law or simply to mention.

動詞cite一詞的意思是引用,提及,傳喚出庭,或者就是提到。

 

引用

 

Examples:

The lecturer cited several instances of illegal behaviour.

演講者舉出了幾個違法行為的例子。

The young inspector was cited for his outstanding achievements.

那位年輕的督察因其杰出成就而受到表揚。

Remember to cite expert opinion to support your points.

記住要引用專家的意見來支持你的觀點。

site是“位置、場所、地點”

和地方有關系

而cite主要是“引用”的意思

他們倆讀音完全相同

但意思可不一樣哦~
