    小知识

    To cover something is to conceal it by putting something on top of it. In many religions, it's important for people to cover their heads in various instances.

    You might cover your picnic table with a bright tablecloth for a party, or cover the mirrors in your house when you're mourning a family member. Gardeners cover their beds with mulch or compost, scattering a layer on top, and painters cover dingy old paint with a fresh new coat. If a politician covers something up, he attempts to hide some mistake or wrongdoing. When cover is a noun, it can mean “a lid” or “a secret identity.”

    词语辨析
    cover,protection,refuge,shelter
    这组词都是指一处保护某人使不受袭击或伤害的地方,但含义有所不同:
    cover的意思是“隐蔽物”“躲避处”,是把事物隐藏起来以确保安全的保护物,它既可指野生动物找到的树丛等天然的躲避处,也可指阻挡袭击的物体、房屋等;
    protection的意思是“保护物”“保护”,在这组词中,它的词义最笼统,用途最广,可指任何阻挡伤害或破坏的事物;
    refuge和shelter都用以指无家可归的人能够得到照顾和施舍的地方。
    例如:
    Take cover in the barn as soon as you hear gun fire
    一听见枪声就躲进谷仓里吧。
