词义辨析:
hunger, famine, starvation这组词都有“饥饿”的意思,其区别是:
1、hunger 普通用词,指人体对于食物迫切需要的正常生理现象。
2、famine 指因天灾人祸而引起大规模饥荒;用作引申,指严重缺乏某种物资或人力。
3、starvation 语气比hunger强得多。指因长期缺乏食物所造成的痛苦,甚至死亡,侧重人为的灾难所致。
例句:
Over three hundred people have died of starvation since the beginning of the year.
自那年年初开始,已有三百多人饿死了。
一、starvation的相关词语:starve

二、starve的用法:
1、starve的基本意思是“挨饿”,指人或动物由于食物少而忍饥挨饿,甚至有可能饿死。用于比喻,还可表示“极端”“渴望”。在古英语里starve还可表示“使挨冻”。
2、starve可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作不及物动词时,表示“感觉饿”; 用作及物动词时,表示“使…饥饿”,接名词或代词作宾语。
accessible 和 available用法辨析:
动词access 的计算机意义上“存取/访问(数据或程序)”已被人们广为接受,近几年它已被运用于非技术领域,从而有更广泛的意义“通常是通过科技手段来取得(货物或信息)”。目前常用的意思为:
1)To obtain access to (data or processes).接近,进入:获得接触(数据或程序)的途径
2) To obtain access to (goods or information), usually by technological means. 使用,接近,获取:使用科技手段取得(货物或信息)
access 做名词用的情况比较多,通常意思为:
1)A means of approaching, entering, exiting, or making use of; passage.通道,入口,出口,使用途径:接近、进入、出去或使用的方法手段;通道
例如: The only access to the town is across the bridge.到镇上唯一的通路是经过一座桥。
2)The act of approaching.接近,进入:接近的行为
例如:a man of easy access 易于接近的人, 平易近人的人
3)The right to approach, enter, exit, or make use of:接近权,享用权,出入权:接近、进入、出去或使用的权力:
例如:Citizens may have free access to the library. 市民可以自由使用图书馆。
习惯用语为:have [gain, get, obtain] access to:得接近; 得会见; 得进入; 得使用

If something is accessible to people, they can easily use it or obtain it.
