本帖最后由 spearonsquare 于 2017-12-28 15:29 编辑OALD9对cruise的解释是：
a journey by sea, visiting different places, especially as a holiday/vacation
OALD4:
sail about, either for pleasure or, in wartime, looking for enemy ships
但是，其他词典基本都没有将这个义项限制在by sea的范围内，因为在河流和湖泊上乘船游玩也可以用cruise。
另外，SOED也没有这一限制：
A voyage in which a ship sails to and fro over a particular region, esp. for the protection of shipping or for pleasure; a sail for pleasure with no particular destination or calling at a series of places.
ODE在线也没有：

Sail about in an area without a precise destination, especially for pleasure.
