Usage Note :

Do not confuse capacity with ability and capability. If someone has a particular capacity, a capacity for something, or a capacity to do something, they have the qualities required to do it. Capacity is a more formal word than ability. ...their capacity for hard work. ...his capacity to see the other person's point of view. You often use ability to say that someone can do something well. He had remarkable ability as a musician. ...the ability to bear hardship. A person's capability is the amount of work they can do and how well they can do it. ...a job that was beyond the capability of one man. ...the director's ideas of the capability of the actor.

不要混淆 capacity,ability 和 capability。capacity 比 ability 更加正式, 表示具有做某事所必需的特质: their capacity for hard work (他们能吃苦耐劳), his capacity to see the other person's point of view (他理解他人观点的能力)。ability 常用来表示能够做好某事: He had remarkable ability as a musician (他拥有杰出的音乐才华), the ability to bear hardship (承受苦难的能力)。capability 表示能完成的工作量及工作质量: a job that was beyond the capability of one man (个人力所不及的工作), the director's ideas of the capability of the actor (导演对那个演员演技的评价)。
