    steady 对比 even
    分析 词典对比 组词对比
  • Steady】 ,  【uniform】 ,  【even】 ,  【equable】 ,  【constant】  are comparable when they mean neither markedly varying nor variable but much the same throughout its course or extent.

    Steady】 is the most widely applicable of these terms; in general it suggests regularity and lack of deviation, especially in movement, but it may imply such fixity in position as to be immovable or unshakable or such consistency in character or conduct as to be perfectly reliable.

    When movement, motion, or direction is implied, the term may connote lack of fluctuation or lack of nervousness or a 【constant】 uninterrupted flow or pursuit.

    Uniform】 stresses the sameness or alikeness of the elements, parts, units, or instances that comprise a whole (as an aggregate, a series, a combination of instances, a course, or a texture).

    Even】 stresses steadiness more than uniformity; it often connotes a dead level (as in quality or in character) which is unvaryingly maintained or which is incapable of alteration or disturbance.

    Equable】 usually implies some inherent quality which makes for invariability, such as uniformity or freedom from extremes or sudden marked changes or a temperamental calmness.

    Constant】  (see also FAITHFUL CONTINUAL ) implies fixity in character, quality, or condition or persistence in kind or type under the same conditions.
