用法讲解
- attempt的基本意思是“尝试”,指某人需要很大的勇气第一次做一次具体的努力或尝试做事的艰难过程,它只强调动作实际开始,其结果可能成功,也可能失败,往往带有“妄图”的意味。
- attempt后可接名词、代词、动词不定式或动名词作宾语,动词不定式或动名词作宾语所表达的意思几乎相同,但由于习惯,用不定式时较多些。
- attempt比较正式,多用于书面语。
- attempt的过去分词attempted在句中可用作定语。
- attempt的基本意思是“尝试”,引申可表示“企图”,是可数名词。
- attempt在句中可用作主语或宾语,其后也可接动词不定式作定语。
- attempt后面也可以接介词at引起的短语,表示“在…方面的试图”,偶尔也可接介词on或upon,表示“试图做…”。
- attempt后可加不定式,如attempt to do,也可加介词和动名词勾结,如attempt at doing,不过习惯上,不定式的用法更为普遍;
- 作为名词时,attempt是指可数的尝试,要注意不能随便省略掉冠词an,如make an attempt。也可以说an attempt to do it和an attempt at doing it,或者是不用冠词,如make little attempt,without attempt;
-
使用attempt时,要注意双重否定的错误。
The work was attempted to be done quickly.
第一句的说法是错误的,第二句才是正确的,指“尝试将工作做得更快”。
- attempt, endeavour, try
-
- 这组词都有“尝试”或“设法 ”的意思。它们之间的区别是:
- 1.attempt只用作及物动词,强调“希望成功”,但不一定成功,是正式用语。例如:
- We attempted a race.我们试图进行一次比赛。
- It would be a waste of time to attempt the impossible.试图做办不到的事是浪费时间。
- 2.endeavour在作“努力”“尽力”解时,是褒义词,指为了完成某事而作出巨大的努力,尤其在面临困难的时候。例如:
- The UN is endeavouring to establish peace.联合国正在为世界和平而努力。
- Galieo endeavoured to prove that the earth rotates around the sun.伽利略尽力证明地球是绕着太阳转的。
- 3.try既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词,强调通过多种努力,力争取得成功,还有“审讯,审理”的意思,常用于日常口语中。例如:
- I don't think I can do it, but I'll try.我认为我做不来那个,但我愿试一试。
- If you can't do it the first time, try again.要是你第一次做不成,就再试一下。
- Who is going to try the case?谁将审理此案件?
- attempt,try,endeavour,strive
-
- 这些动词均含有“试图,努力,力图”之意。
- attempt较正式用词,侧重已经开始,且希望完成,但常隐含着不一定有预期的结果。
- try普通用词,可与attempt换用,但强调努力或尝试,后跟不定式表示努力或争取;后跟动名词表示尝试。
- endeavour正式用词,指尽最大努力、认真地克服困难去做某事。
- strive和endeavour一样,表示付出巨大努力,但strive侧重劳累与紧张,而不强调努力的结果。
