常见误用提醒

使用 townscape:I like the townscape of the countryside. → I like the landscape of the countryside. (“townscape”特指城镇的风景,而“countryside”是乡村,应使用“landscape”表示自然或乡村风光。)

使用 townscape:The townscape is very noisy. → The town is very noisy. (“townscape”侧重于视觉景象,不直接描述声音;应使用“town”来指代城镇本身及其环境。)

使用 landscape:I like the landscape of this city very much. → I like the cityscape of this city very much. (landscape 通常指自然或广阔的风景,城市风景更常用 cityscape 或 urban landscape,直接说 'landscape of this city' 可能不够准确。)
