2. 不同點(diǎn)：

(1) 用作不及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)，marry的主語(yǔ)可以是單數(shù)或復(fù)數(shù)；而divorce的主語(yǔ)通常應(yīng)是復(fù)數(shù)，不能是單數(shù)，如可說(shuō)：Ten years later they divorced. 但一般不說(shuō)：Ten years later he divorced. 可改為：Ten years later he got divorced.

(2) 要具體表明與某人結(jié)婚或離婚，be [get] married后通常只接介詞to引出結(jié)婚的對(duì)象，而be [get] divorced后除可接介詞to外，還通常可接介詞from。如：

He was married to a nurse. 他與一名護(hù)士結(jié)婚了。

He was divorced to [from] his wife. 他與他的妻子離婚了。

3. 補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明：

(1) divorce可直接用作名詞，表示“離婚”，根據(jù)意義的具體與抽象可用作可數(shù)或不可數(shù)名詞。如：

Divorce breaks up a lot of families. 離婚拆散了許多家庭。

I won’t give her a divorce. 我不會(huì)和她離婚。

He’s getting married again, after two divorces, so he obviously hasn’t profited by his experiences. 他兩次離婚之后又結(jié)婚，顯然沒(méi)有吸取以往的教訓(xùn)。

(2) marry不能直接用作名詞，其相應(yīng)的派生名詞是marriage，其用法參見(jiàn)marriage詞條。
