improve的詳細講解：

詞語用法

v. (動詞)

improve的基本意思為“改善,提高”,可指健康狀況、環境、形勢等,也可指具體事物,還可間或指人。強調部分地或某種程度上對客體加以修補改正,以提高到較高水平或使其更受歡迎。本詞不用于壞的事物變好,也不用于變得十分完美,無以復加。
improve用作及物動詞時可接名詞或代詞作賓語,但不用于被動結構; 用作不及物動詞時主動形式常含有被動意義。
improve后常接反身代詞表示“在知識或學問上有進步”,其后常接介詞in。
improve常和表示程度的副詞連用。

improve跟improve upon的區別：前者指的的是“在好或不好的基礎上進行修改，改進”，而后者則是指“在好的基礎再更進一步”。
This poem cannot be improved.
這首詩太好或太壞，以致于不能修改了。

This poem cannot be improved upon.
這首詩好得不能再好了。
improve跟better的區別：前者指的是大方面的，或是人物內在的提高，以及比較抽象的事物的提高，如improve one's health。后者指的是人的地位，物質或經濟條件上的提高，如better the conditions of the workers（工人生活條件的提高）；
在使用improved同improving時要特別注意，避免誤用improved而形成被動語態。

詞義辨析

v. (動詞)

improve in, improve on〔upon〕: 1.前者表示“本身在…方面有改進”,后者主要指“對…加以改進”。

2.improve on多接實物名詞; 而improve in多接名詞或動名詞。

3.improve in多用進行時或完成時態,而improve on多用一般時態。

improve, improve on〔upon〕: improve和improve on都可接賓語,意思是“使…有長進或提高”。improve指在原有的基礎上加以改進。而improve on則用于另一事物,即創造新的,比原來更好的事物。試比較:

I can improve this poem.

我可以把這首詩改得更好。

I can improve on this poem.

我可以再寫一首超過這首的另一首詩。

I can improve upon her poem.

我能作一首比她好的詩。(用于另一事物)

improve, better: improve與better意思相近,都指在原有基礎上改進得更好。其區別是：

1.在提高的速度和水平上, improve比better更快更高。

2.better比improve更有生氣和親切感。

3.better和improve都可接反身代詞再接介詞in,前者指某人的社會經濟地位向好的方面發展,后者指本身向更好的方面變化。例如:

He has bettered himself in living condition.他的生活條件已大有改善。

I wish to improve myself in drawing.但愿我在繪畫方面有所長進。

improve，better，perfect，refine: 這些動詞均有“改進、改善”之意。

improve最常用詞，多指狀態或性質上的深刻或重要改進，也可指自身能力的提高。

better多用于口語，指適當地改善原來并非很差的狀態或性質，也指社會地位、經濟狀況的改善。

perfect語義強，通常指使方法、技術等達到完善美好的境地。

refine側重指使語言、儀態等變得文雅、優美，也可指技藝等的提高。
