A lull in a conversation, in fighting or in business activity is sth that just happens without being planned. A gap also usually happens without being planned: it is usually either a gap in the conversation or a period of time between two events. * break常常是計劃好的，因活動期間需要間歇來休息或做些其他事情。lull指談話、戰事或商務活動中未經計劃的間歇。gap通常也不是安排好的，通常用於gap in the conversation，或指兩件事之間的間隔。 pause
