In many cases there is no real difference between the two. * scale指事物的规模，extent指事物的程度。在许多情况下这两个词并无实质差别 ◆ the scale / extent of the problem / damage问题的严重性；损坏的程度 However, you are more likely to try to assess/measure/calculate the extent of sth , while you simply try to comprehend/grasp the scale of sth . Some qualities, such as knowledge , are considered as being wide rather than large, and so have extent rather than scale . 然而，更常说assess/measure/calculate the extent of sth（评估／测量／计算程度），以及comprehend/grasp the scale of sth（认识／理解严重性）。有些特质，如knowledge，一般看成是范围广而非规模大，所以要用extent而非scale ◆ I was amazed at the scale of his knowledge. ■ size [uncountable ] the large amount or extent of sth 大量；大规模 ◆ You should have seen the size of their house!你真该看看他们的房子有多大！ ◆ We were shocked at the size of his debts.他欠债之多让我们震惊。 ■ proportions prəˈpɔːʃnz; NAmE prəˈpɔːrʃnz [plural ] the size and shape of an area; the scale of a task or problem 面积；体积；（任务或问题的）规模，程度 ◆ The apartment is of generous proportions , with a large kitchen and dining area.这套公寓很宽敞，厨房和餐厅的面积很大。 ⓘ When describing a task or problem, proportions is often used in order to say whether the task/problem can be managed easily or not. 描述任务或问题时，常用proportions来表示它们是否易于操作或解决 ◆ This method divides the task into more manageable proportions.这个方法把任务分解成一些较易操作的步骤。 ◆ The food shortage could soon reach crisis proportions .粮食短缺可能很快就会达到危机的程度。 ◆ The virus has not yet reached epidemic proportions .这种病毒尚未发展成大规模的传染病。 ■ magnitude ˈmægnɪtjuːd; NAmE ˈmægnɪtuːd [uncountable ] (formal ) how large or important sth is, especially when it is very large or important 巨大；重大；重要性 ◆ We did not realize the magnitude of the problem.我们当时没有意识到这个问题的重要性。 ◆ This is a discovery of the first magnitude (= it is very important) .这是一项极为重要的发现。 ◆ We are talking about something of a different order of magnitude (= so much larger or more important that it cannot easily be compared with other examples) .我们在谈论一件非同寻常的重大事情。
