片段

含义

A fragment; excerpt; segment; a brief passage from a text, conversation, memory, or performance extracted from a larger whole.

正确说法

• 课堂教学中适当引入文学经典的精彩片段，既能激发学生对整部作品的阅读兴趣，又能有效示范高质量语言表达的具体形式。(Appropriately incorporating excellent passages from literary classics in classroom teaching can both stimulate students' interest in reading the complete work and effectively model specific forms of high-quality language expression.)
• 这段对话只是完整录音的一个片段，断章取义地引用可能严重扭曲说话者的本来意图，甚至对当事人造成不公正的伤害。(This dialogue is only a fragment of the complete recording; quoting it out of context may seriously distort the speaker's original intent and even cause unjust harm to the person involved.)

错误说法

• 这只是一个片段想法 — 片段 modifies concrete excerpts, not abstract thoughts; say 这只是一个零散的想法 or 思路还不完整
