用法讲解

- employ是及物动词,接名词或代词宾语,也可接以动词不定式或as短语充当补足语的复合宾语。
- employ常可接介词in,表示“把时间花在…上”。
- employ是不可数名词,基本意思是“雇用”“受雇”“服务”,引申可指某人的工作、职业等,作此解时,是可数名词。
- employ前面常接介词in,表示“受…雇用”“在…任职”。
- employ, hire
-
- 这两个词都有“雇用”的意思。其区别是:
- 1.employ表示一般意义的“雇用”某人,被雇用人工作相对稳定,有固定薪水,还可能晋升职务等,多用于政府部门、工商企业、银行、公司、团体等各种机构,如果用于私人雇用时,即讲好工作待遇,就可开始工作; hire作“雇用”解时,是美式英语或非正式的英语用法,多指用低薪雇用临时工人或进行特殊工作的人。例如:
- One thousand hands are employed at this factory.这个工厂雇用1000名工人。
- They employ day-labourers during the busy season.他们忙时要雇短工。
- We hired a driver to take us on a tour of the city.我们雇了一个司机带我们浏览这个城市。

- 1.当强调雇用、选用时用employ,强调手段或工具时用use。例如:
- They employed the weapon of self-criticism.他们使用了自我批评的武器。
- May I use your knife?我可以用你的刀子吗?
- 2.use的宾语多为具体的事物; employ的宾语多为时间、权力等抽象名词。例如:
- He employed his spare time in reading.他利用空闲时间看书。
- We used 20 tons of coal last winter.去年冬天我们用了20吨煤。
- 3.use要比employ常用。

-
- 这些动词均含“使用,应用”之意。
- use普通用词,着重为达到某一目的而利用某人或某物。
- apply指将一事物运用于另一事物之上以发挥其有效作用。
- employ指使用处于消极状态或未被用过的人或物,可以与use换用,但强调进行选择、充分利用。
