用法辨析
- avoid的基本意思是避開不希望發(fā)生的、不愿忍受的或不想遇上的事情。有時含有先見之明的意味。引申可表示“預(yù)防”或“防止”發(fā)生某事物。avoid所表達的意圖總是達成的,否則就須用try。
- avoid是及物動詞,可接名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語,不接動詞不定式,可用于被動結(jié)構(gòu)。
- avoid后可接動名詞,不可接不定式。You had better avoid reading in the train. 句中的reading不可改成to read。
- avoid指“避免(成功)”,若是企圖避免卻失敗的,不可用avoid。I avoided meeting him, but somehow bumped against him. 句中我企圖避免見他,卻還是撞上了,不可單用avoid,需把avoided改成tried to avoid。
- 指得注意的是,“避免”和“防止”有這本質(zhì)上的區(qū)別,兩者不可混用。
v. (動詞)
