Official city status is given by the king or queen (in Britain) or state governments in the US. As time went by towns and cities changed in size, so that these days it is possible to find some cities that are smaller than many towns. In American English town can also describe a smaller place than in British English, as the term village is not used so much in American English. * city通常比town大,但并不总是如此。官方的城市地位在英国由国王或女王授予,在美国由州政府授予。随着时代的变迁,town和city的规模也在变化,因此现今有的city可能比 town小。美式英语的town也可指比英式英语的town小一些的地方,因为美式英语中不太使用village这个词。 village [countable] a very small town situated in a country area 村庄;村镇Appledore is a fishing village on the north coast of Devon.阿普尔多尔是德文北岸的一个渔村。 (especially BrE) Most basic items are available from the village shop.大多数基本用品都可以从乡村商店买到。Her books are about village life.她的书是关于乡村生活的。Do not use village to talk about small towns in the US.
