live adverb 直播地 I've got two tickets to see them (perform) live. adjective broadcast, recorded or seen while it is happening: 直播的 This evening there will be a live broadcast of the debate. a live recording

17 live, alive, lively, living的区别:
Young children are usually lively. 小孩子们通常是活泼的。 He told a very lively story. 他讲了一个生动的故事。

18 live, alive, lively, living的区别: ⑵ alive、live、living都有“活的、有生命的”意思，与dead意义相反。但live通常只作前置定语，且一般用于动物；alive、living不仅可作定语（alive只能置于名词后；living一般置于名词前，也可置于名词后），也可以作表语。 如：

19 This is a live (=living) fish. (=This is a fish alive.)
这是一条活鱼。（指动物，且作定语时，三者均可用） Who's the greatest man alive (=living man)? 谁是当今最伟大的人物？（指人，不能用live） The fish is still alive (=living) 那条鱼还活着。（指动物作表语时不能用live）。

20 live, alive, lively, living的区别:
⑶ living主要指在某个时候是活着的，而alive指本来有死的可能，但仍活着的。而且，作主语补足语或宾语补足语时，只能用alive；作比喻义（如“活像……”、“活生生的”等）解时，要用living。 如： The enemy officer was caught alive. (作主语补足语，不用living） 那位敌方军官被活捉了。

21 We found the snake alive. (作宾语补足语，不用living）
He is the living image of his father. (比喻义，不用alive） 他活象他父亲。 ⑷只有living前加the方可表示“活着的人”，作主语时，视作复数。 如： The living are more important to us than the dead. 活着的人对我们来说比死去的人更重要。
