答案

almost和nearly的差异
1.句法上的差异
(1)almost可以用在any及否定词“no,no one,nobody,never,nothing,none,nowhere 等的前面,而nearly则不可以.eg:
There is almost no leadership at all.(不可用nearly)
但是,nearly可以用在否定词not之后,起加强否定陈述的作用,而almost则不可以.eg:
It's not nearly so nice. We don't do nearly enough to help.
(2)almost可以用在以—ly结尾的副词的前面,而nearly则不可以.eg:
She said it almost crossly. Your boss is almost certainly there.
(3)almost可以用在like之前,表示“相似,但不完全相同”或避免说得过于肯定;nearly则不可以.eg:
It made me feel almost like a hostess.
(4)very,so,pretty可以用在nearly前面,却不可用在almost前面.eg:
We were very nearly at the end Of our journey.
...the American who so nearly won the Open Championship in 1970.
I've pretty nearly finished.
2.语义上的细微差异
一般情况下,“It's almost five o'clock.”和“It's nearly five o'clock.”意思大致相同;但有时almost所表示的意思比nearly更接近一些.试比较:
It's nearly ten o'clock.(=perhaps 9.45) .It's almost ten o'clock.(=perhaps 9.57)
3.语用上的差异
almost是一个“纯”程度副词,而nearly则不然,它同时还传达说话人的某种思想情绪和心理状态.eg:
It's nearly eight kilometers to the ZOO.
到动物园还有将近八公里呢.(比设想的要远些)
It cost me nearly twenty pounds.
它花了我将近20英镑呢.(比估计的价格高,嫌贵了一些)
4.国别差异
almost多用在美国英语中,而nearly在英国英语中则更为常见.
总之,almost和nearly两词的用法比较复杂,尤其是它们在语义和语用上的细微差异,更须在上下文或语境中细心揣摩才能体会到.
