用法讲解
-
当occasion要表达“在……情况,场合下”的意思时,前面应与英语介词on搭配。
I met strangers on that occasion.
在那次我遇见了一些陌生人。 -
on occasion还有“偶尔地”的意思。
I call on him on occasion.
我偶尔去拜访他。 -
have occasion to…表示“有……的必要”,have no/little occasion to表示“没有……的必要”。此时occasion前面不能用冠词an或the。
I have no occasion to see him these days.
我最近没必要见他。 - occasion指“机会”时,有“take occasion to…”的用法,表达“趁着机会做…”的意思。其反义词则是“not take occasion to…”,表示“不趁着……”。这里occasion前不能用冠词an或the;
-
当occasion用作动词表示“引起”,“致使”时,可用双宾语结构。
His long silence occasions me great anxiety.
他漫长的沉默让我焦虑不已。
- occasion, chance, opportunity

- 这组词都有“机会”“机遇”“运气”的意思。其区别在于:
