用法讲解
- ahead的基本意思是“在前面”,指空间、时间、位置超前,也可指关系“超过”“比…强”。ahead虽译为“在前”,但其含义有时却指“以后”,即“到将来”。
- ahead常修饰动词,在句中作状语, 也可修饰名词或名词性短语,在句中作后置定语。
- ahead还可作表语,后面接介词in时表示“在某方面领先”; 后面接介词of时表示“在前,优于,面临着”。
- ahead不用于比较等级。
-
ahead在指“在前”时,是表达了将来的一个时间,未发生的,指“以后”。
I have a very busy day ahead of me.
我接下去的这一天会很忙。 -
ahead在指“预先”时,表达的是之前的一个时间,指“以前”。
We must decide a week ahead.
我们必须要在一周前预先决定好。
- ahead of, in front of
-
- ahead of和in front of均可表示“在…前面”,指具体的或比喻的空间时,两者均可使用;指时间时,只可使用ahead of。例如:
- He was running 50 meters ahead of〔before〕 me.他跑在我前面50米。
- At that moment two girls passed in front of me.那时有两个姑娘在我面前经过。
- They say there is a great future ahead of me.他们说我有远大的前程。
- You have a splendid life in front of you.你有大好的前程。
- ahead, before, forward
-
- 这组词的共同含义是指“在某时间或地点以前”,其区别是:
- 1.before主要用于时间而少用于地点;而ahead和forward则主要用于地点而少用于时间。
- 2.用于地点时,ahead指自身以外的前方,而forward则指自身的前部。试比较:
- The commander sent a group of scouts ahead.
- 指挥员派一支侦察队到前面去。
- The commander sent a company forward.
- 指挥员调一连人到前面来。
- 前句表示小分队离开大部到前面去, 后句则表示把一人调至队首或较前面的位置。
- 在航海上, ahead指方向或位置在船外或船的前部; 而forward则指中部靠前的位置。
- 用于引申意, 也有同样的区别, 如look ahead可指预见长远后果而不计较当前得失, 而look forward则指预料到某事可能或一定能发生。
- 3.用于指可顺、逆变化的机械运动时,ahead和forward则无明显差别,例如按顺时针拨动表针,可说set the clock forward,也可说set the clock ahead。
常见错误
-
他们提前到达目的地。
误 They reached their aims in front of time.
正 They reached their aims ahead of time.
析 指时间时,只可使用ahead of。
