extensive有以下几种意思:
①large in spatial extent or range or scope or quantity 空间延伸范围大
②broad in scope or content 范围和内容宽泛
③of agriculture; increasing productivity by using large areas with minimal outlay and labor 农业上指使用大面积小成本
expansive有以下几种意思:
①able or tending to expand or characterized by expansion 能够或容易扩大的
②of behavior that is impressive and ambitious in scale or scope 伟大的,英雄一般的
③marked by exaggerated feelings of euphoria and delusions of grandeur 自我感觉良好的,自我膨胀的
extensive是指大小和范围客观上“宽泛、广泛”;而expansive指的是“可以/容易变大、膨胀的”。前者多指客观上的大,后者则多指有变大的趋势。
