- 英语continue的用法
- continue的用法
- 1. 表示继续做某事或不停地做某事,其后可接名词,动名词或不定式(注:常可与go on wh 互换)。如:
He continued (=went on with) the work day after day. 他日复一日地继续做这项工作。
He continued working (或to work) (=went on working) as if nothing had happened. 他继续工作,好像什么也没发生似的。
注:continue 也可用作不及物动词。如:
The strike continued for several weeks. 罢工作继续了几个星期。
But she didn’t continue with her explanation. 但她没有继续解释下去。
2. 表示中断后再继续,一般认为后面只能接名词,不能接不定式或动名词,但在 一代英语中接动名词是完全可以的。如:
Are you going to continue gardening after dinner? 吃饭后你还要继续做园艺工作吗?
ntinue还可用作连系动词,表示继续处于某种状态,其后可接形容词、副词、介词短语等。如:
The weather continued fine. 天气仍然很好。
The boat continued east. 船继续往东开。
注:此时的continue 与remain 同义,因此不能同时使用,以免构成用词重复。如:
误:He continues to remain in good health.
正:He continues (或remains) in good health. 他身体仍然健康。
