vocabulary简明 If you're looking for a more refined word to call your latest drive to the beach or trip to the mall, try journey — a noun that describes travel from one place to another.
vocabulary扩展 From the Old French journée, meaning a “day’s work or travel,” journey doubles as both noun and verb. The noun simply refers to a voyage; the verb is the act of taking that voyage. So you can journey across the Sahara, or tell friends about your journey across the desert if you make it back alive. Either way, you should always remember that life is a journey, not a destination.

Usage Note :

Do not confuse journey, voyage, trip, and excursion. A journey is the process of travelling from one place to another by land, air, or sea. ...a journey of over 2,000 miles. If you journey to a place, you travel there. This is a literary use. The nights became colder as they journeyed north. A voyage is a very long journey from one place to another, usually by sea or through space. ...the voyage to the moon in 1972. A trip is the process of travelling from one place to another, staying there, usually for a short time, and coming back again. ...a business trip to Milan. Note that the verb trip is not used with this meaning. An excursion is a short trip made either as a tourist or in order to do a particular thing. The tourist office organizes excursions to the palace of Knossos.

不要混淆 journey,voyage,trip和excursion。journey指经由陆路、空路或海路,从一地到另一地的旅程,如:a journey of over 2, 000 miles (2, 000多英里的旅程)。表示旅行到某个地方用journey,这是文雅的用法:The nights became colder as they journeyed north(他们北上的过程中,夜晚变得越来越冷)。voyage通常指乘船或乘坐飞行器进行的长途旅行:the voyage to the moon in 1972(1972年的登月之旅)。trip通常指短期逗留的往返旅程:a business trip to Milan(到米兰出差)。注意,trip用作动词时含义不同。excursion指短途的观光游览或有其他目的的短途旅行:The tourist office organizes excursions to the palace of Knossos(旅游局组织去克诺索斯王宫观光游览)。
