Jean: 这些被打捞起来的文物后来被修复了吗?
Catherine: I expect some of the recovered items have been restored.
Jean: 真有意思!看来,recover 和 restore 的根本区别在于 recover 的意思更有“找到和救起”的含义,而 restore 的意思更倾向于“修理和复原”
Catherine: More or less, yes. But don’t forget, sometimes we use the two words interchangeably. When I lose a folder from my computer, I call the IT support line. Sometimes I ask them to restore the folder, sometimes I ask them to recover it. I don't care how they do it, I just want my folder back!
Jean: 可以理解。不过我想从咱们 IT 的技术角度来讲,找到一个文件夹和复原一个文件夹应该有些区别吧?
Catherine: Technically yes, I expect there is a difference. But in everyday English, this is an example of how the words ‘restore’ and ‘recover’ are used to mean pretty much the same thing.
Jean: 那倒是没错。
