用法辨析
- cost作名詞時,意思是“成本,費(fèi)用,價錢,代價”。引申可指“損失,犧牲”,包括時間或精力方面的消耗。
- cost作“成本”“費(fèi)用”解時,可用單數(shù)形式,也可用復(fù)數(shù)形式; 作“代價”解時,一般用單數(shù)形式。
- cost的基本意思是“對得到的事物、行為或事情的結(jié)果付出代價”,可依據(jù)上下文靈活譯為“值…”“花費(fèi)”或“失去”“蒙受”“招致”等。引申還可表示“估算成本”“計算費(fèi)用”。cost側(cè)重的是“以…為代價”,而不僅僅是數(shù)量的陳述。
- cost主要用作及物動詞。作“花費(fèi)”“付出代價”解時,不用于被動結(jié)構(gòu),主語通常是物或事物。接名詞或代詞作賓語時,賓語為金錢、時間、精力等(在當(dāng)代英語中,這一范圍正不斷擴(kuò)大)。接雙賓語時,直接賓語為金錢、時間、精力等,間接賓語則總是人。作“計算費(fèi)用”“估算”解時主語一定是人,且可用于被動結(jié)構(gòu)。
- cost也可用作不及物動詞,意為“需要花費(fèi)”“需要付出代價”,這時其后一般有副詞性狀語。
- cost也可用作系動詞,可接形容詞,表被動意義。
- cost的過去式和過去分詞有兩種形式,作“花費(fèi)”“失去”解時用cost,作“估算”解時則是costed。
- at the cost of表示“以……為代價”,后一般接表示損失或花費(fèi)的東西的詞,如life,health,time和money。偶爾,也接表示被遭受的東西的詞,如discomfort,misery和sufferin等;
- at all cost表示“不惜任何代價,無論如何”,它的用法比at any cost更為普遍;
n. (名詞)
v. (動詞)
