repairing something to former condition
The act of fixing or cleaning something so it is like it was before, usually when it was new or in good shape.
用法模式：
the restoration of [something]
常见错误：
Learners sometimes confuse "restoration" with "renovation." "Restoration" usually means bringing something back to how it used to be, while "renovation" can include changing or modernizing it. Learners also sometimes say "do a restoration to" instead of the more natural "carry out a restoration of" or simply "restore."
近义词
renovation (Often suggests modernizing or updating a building, while restoration focuses more on returning it to an earlier state.)
反义词
damage (Damage is harm done to something, while restoration is fixing that harm and making it good again.)

bringing back a former system
The act of making a rule, system, or situation exist again, like it did in the past.
用法模式：
the restoration of [system/state]
常见错误：
Learners may use "come back" instead of "restoration" in formal writing (e.g. "the come back of democracy"). In formal contexts, use "the restoration of democracy" or "the return of democracy." Also avoid saying "restoration of back" (double marking), as in "the restoration of back peace"; simply say "the restoration of peace."
近义词
reinstatement (Reinstatement is often used for jobs, rules, or rights; restoration is slightly broader and can apply to many kinds of situations or states.)
反义词

repairing damaged natural environments
Work done to help a damaged area of nature, like a forest or river, become healthy and natural again.
用法模式：
the restoration of [environmental area]
常见错误：
Learners sometimes treat this as only planting trees. In ecology, "restoration" can include many actions (removing dams, cleaning soil, reintroducing species), not just planting. Also, avoid "restore back" ("restore the river" is enough, not "restore back the river").
近义词
rehabilitation (Rehabilitation also means bringing something back to a better or more natural state, but restoration usually aims more specifically at returning ecological systems to a previous condition.)
反义词
degradation (Degradation is the process of making the environment worse, while restoration is the process of making it better again.)

filling or crown in dentistry

常见错误：
Learners usually say only "filling" for any repaired tooth. In more formal or medical English, "restoration" is used as the general term, especially in writing or by dentists.
近义词
filling ("Filling" is a common everyday word, usually for small repairs in teeth; "restoration" is a broader technical term that also includes crowns, inlays, and other structures.)
反义词
