A machine is a man-made system that transforms energy into useful work.
30초 단어
- A device that uses energy to perform work.
- Essential for industrial and domestic efficiency.
- Can refer to both physical tools and complex systems.
常见语境：在工厂环境里，它是生产力的核心，如“数控机床”；在家庭生活中，它指代家用电器，如“洗衣机”、“洗碗机”。此外，在计算机科学领域，它常指代硬件设备或计算机本身（如“机器语言”）。
- 1近义词辨析：与“机械”相比，“机器”侧重于具体的实体设备，而“机械”既可以指设备，也可以指一种僵化、缺乏灵活性的状态；与“装置”相比，“机器”强调动力和功能的执行，而“装置”范围更广，不一定需要动力驱动。
