1. means (单复数同形)可以指人或物，其含义为“手段”或“工具”；这个词不仅用于具体的东西，也可以用于抽象的意念。如：means of production 生产资料，means of living 生活资料

他们把劳动阶级看作一种养活其他阶级的纯粹的工具。
2. way 是个最通用最不正式的词，可以用来代替前面的任何一个词。由于way常出现在许多固定的词组中，可见这是个使用非常频繁的词；在不少含有way的词组中，从理论上讲使用method，mode 或 manner 可能表意更准确些，但是
那样却损害了生动性。如：He always has his own way.(他总是随心所欲。)此句中的 way 就是 mode 或 manner 的意思，因为说的是“个人喜爱的方式方法”。另外do something in this way 中的 way 即 method 的意思，但并不用 mehod
