choice是“选择”,option是“选项”,选择可以是无限的,不固定的,而选项是有限的。比如,大学毕业生走向社会,他们的choices是many, many的,理论上讲是无限的,做什么都可以,什么都可以去试。
option和choice,两者均有选择的意思,从中文意义上很难分辨两者的区别,我们从其英文含义及用法上进行辨析。 一、option和choice的相同点 1. 当option表示[可数]power or freedom of choosing,相当于choice(right or possibility of choosing; act of choosing between two or more possibilities),表示“挑选;选择权” 例句: have little option=not much choice 没有多少选择的余地 I haven't much option(=choice) in the matter. 在这件事情上我无可选择。 I have little option(=choice) but to go, ie I have to go. 我别无选择只好走。 2. 当option表示[可数]thing that is or may be chosen,相当于choice( one of two or more possibilities from which sb may choose),表示“可供选择的事物” Make a list of the various options(=choices). 列出可供选择的项目. He was given one month's imprisonment without the option (=choice/alternative) of a fine. 他被判监禁一个月, 不得以罚款相抵
二、option和choice的不同点
1. option (on sth) (commerce 商) right to buy or sell sth at a certain price within a certain time (按其价格在规定期限内买或卖某物的)选择权:
an option on a package holiday 包价旅游选择权
have an option on a piece of land 有买卖一地皮的选择权
We have a 12-day option on the house. 我们是否购买那所房子有12天的选择权.
在这里,choice不能替换option。

在这里,不是keep/leave one's choices。
