All three mean forcing someone to leave, but the context differs. Expel means a school or club formally removes a member as punishment. Eject means forcing someone out of a place right away. Evict means a landlord legally removes a tenant over unpaid rent.

这三个词在“强行使某人离开”这一意义上相近,但语境和强度不同:expel 多用于学校、社团等机构的正式除名处分;eject 强调用武力立刻把人赶出某个场所,语气较直接甚至粗暴;evict 专指房东或当局依法定程序将占用房屋或土地者驱逐。这里不比较 eject 表示“(飞行员等)弹射逃生”这一自身动作的用法。
