Question

comparable adj.可比较的；比得上的 (1) 运动员的成就与作家的成就不能相提并论。(2) 这几组数字是不可比的。(3) 你的成绩可与他的相媲美。(4) 他的书法不错，但是很难和你的相比。(5) 你们的成就可比得上最好的。(6) 没有一匹马的速度能比得上他的马。(7) 无人能比得上他。 Comparable can also mean exactly what it looks like: things you are “able” to “compare” are comparable. When you say that comparing two things is “like comparing apples and oranges,” you're saying the two things in question are not comparable. When you pronounce this word, remember that, unlike with “compare,” you emphasize the first syllable and swallow the first “a”: COM-pra-ble. The sounds of the two words aren't really comparable.
