run out与give out在表示“用完”时有什么区别？

run out与give out在表示“用完”时有什么区别？

我认为，run out和give out 在表达耗尽的时候，唯一的不同是run out的主语可以是人，也就是说，“我用完了燃料”可以说I ran out of fuel. 也可以说The fuel ran out. 但用give out只能说The fuel gave out.

同时我注意到give out很少用于表达耗尽的意思，还是run out居多。

希望对你有帮助！

run out : 用完, 耗尽 Our food soon ran out. 我们的粮食很快就吃完了。 结束, 期满 When does the lease of the house run out? 这房子的租约何时到期? 流走, 流掉 The water is running out. 水流出来了 give out : 分发; 散发 They stood there, giving out the leaflets to the passers-by. 他们站在那里, 向过路人散发传单。 公布; 宣布 The minister gave out the wrong number of the rooms. 部长把房间的号码通知错了。 耗尽; 用完 He plans to stay there until his money gives out. 他计划在那里待到钱花完为止。 停止起作用 We had hardly started from home when the engine gave out. 我们刚刚离开家, 发动机就失灵了。 补充一点，run out为不及物动词，接名词需加of，如run out of the food。give out 作"用完 "时也为不及物动词。

give out 和 run out 应该用于主动语态 题目中用had been 是被动 所以应该用use out
