用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. prove的基本意思是“证明”,即以足够、可靠的证据来证明自己的观点或结论是正确的,而对方的论点或结果是站不住脚的。此外,也可表示证实有争议的人或物的品质、实力或适合性等。引申可作“检验”解。
  2. prove既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时,可接名词、代词、从句作宾语。prove还可接“to be+ n./adj./prep. -phrase”充当补足语的复合宾语, to be一般可以省略,但当to be是完成式即to have been时不可省略。prove还可用作系动词,意思是“显现出是,被发现是”,其后可接“(to be)+ adj./prep. -phrase”或介词短语作表语。
  3. prove的过去分词在英国是proved; 但在美国往往用proven, proven常用作形容词,在句中作定语。
v. (动词)
prove, testify
  • 这组词都有“证明”的意思。其区别是:
  • 1.testify是指证明某事的真实性; prove是指证明某人或某物具有的某种品质特性。
  • 2.testify指通过某人证明; prove指通过事实证明。
  • 3.testify用于法庭或其他正式场合,比较郑重。
  • 4.用作及物动词时, testify后可接从句作简单宾语; prove后可接复合宾语。用作不及物动词时, testify后常接against, for〔on〕 behalf of或to等词。
  • prove, turn out
  • 这两者的共同意思是“证明”。其区别在于:prove的主语可以是人,也可以是事物; 而turn out的主语一般是物,有时含有“意外”的含义,常用于口语中。例如:
  • His first attempt proved successful.他的第一次尝试证明是成功的。
  • They proved that he was guilty.他们证明他有罪。
  • As it has turned out, there was no need to worry.结果证明当初不必担心。
  • prove,certify,demonstrate,establish,testify
  • 这些动词均含有“证明、证实”之意。
  • prove普通用词,指通过某种手段或方式提供证据以验证某事物真实与否,某结论正确与否等情况。
  • certify较正式用词,多指有签字盖章的、合符法律程序的书面证明。
  • demonstrate指通过推理、辩论、实验或以实例来确定事物的正确与否。常用于理论、学说、定律等的证明上。
  • establish指证实事实或理论的真实性与正确性,使其能长期存在或为人们所接受。
  • testify较正式用词,既指出庭作证,提供证据,又指为某人或某事的是否真实提供证据或证明。
  • 用作动词 (v.)
