用法讲解
- persist的基本意思是尽管遭到反对,受到警告或遇到失败,还是固执地坚持自己的信念、行为,导致令人遗憾的后果,用于不好或不正确的一面。
- persist一般用作不及物动词,有时也可用作及物动词。作及物动词时,可接that从句,意思是“继续说,坚持说,反复说”。若表示“坚持该怎么做”时,从句的谓语动词要用虚拟语气,即(should)+动词原形; 作不及物动词时,可表示尽管有不利条件,非常艰难,但还顽强地继续存在。persist与in而不与on连用,与in连用,表示“坚持继续做某事”, in后可接 v -ing; 与with连用,表示“坚持…”。
- persist, insist, stick to
-
- 三者都可作“坚持”解。其区别在于:
- 1.insist常用于坚持意见、看法、主张等; persist一般用于坚持行动,偶尔用于对某种意见坚持不变; 而stick to多用于坚持原则、计划、决定、诺言、意见等。例如:
- I insist on telling him how great you are.我一定要告诉他你是多么了不起。
- I persisted that we should walk there.我坚持我们步行去。
- Jack always sticks to his promise.杰克总是信守自己的诺言。
- 2.insist后接介词on+名词或动名词,也可接that从句; 而persist后接介词in〔with〕加名词或动名词构成的短语,而不接不定式。例如:
- He insisted on trying again, regardless of the consequences.他不顾后果,执意要再试一试。
- He persisted in saying so.他坚持这样说。
- persist, last, survive
-
- 这组词的共同含义是“持续存在”。其区别是:
- survive指继续生存,有时含有经历艰险之义; persist可以指人持续超过了预料的时间,也可以指坚持,还可指令人厌恶地持续; last专指继续存在,而这种存在并不是当然的,往往附有表明时间长短的状语。
- insist,persist,persevere,adhere,cling
-
- 这些动词均有“坚持”之意。
- insist通常用于对意见、主张等的坚持。
- persist用于褒义指坚持继续做某事,但更常用于贬义,指不听劝告,顽固坚持。
- persevere含褒义,强调坚持不懈的努力。
- adhere与to连用,指坚持意见、计划或承诺等,含坚持不懈之意。
- cling和to连用,指对信仰、意见、习惯等的坚持。
- persist,last,endure,continue
-
- 这些动词均含有“持续”之意。
- persist强调超过了指定的或正常的时间。
- last着重存在的时间相当长,超过正常的或所期望的时间。
- endure与last同义,但还指经受住,有能耐忍受而并不受损。
- continue多指过程,强调持续而无终止,常含不间断之意。
- persist in (v.+prep.)
