means与way ,method,style的区别
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

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
