用法辨析
- avoid的基本意思是避开不希望发生的、不愿忍受的或不想遇上的事情。有时含有先见之明的意味。引申可表示“预防”或“防止”发生某事物。avoid所表达的意图总是达成的,否则就须用try。
- avoid是及物动词,可接名词、代词或动名词作宾语,不接动词不定式,可用于被动结构。
- avoid后可接动名词，不可接不定式。You had better avoid reading in the train. 句中的reading不可改成to read。
- avoid指“避免（成功）”，若是企图避免却失败的，不可用avoid。I avoided meeting him, but somehow bumped against him. 句中我企图避免见他，却还是撞上了，不可单用avoid，需把avoided改成tried to avoid。
- 指得注意的是，“避免”和“防止”有这本质上的区别，两者不可混用。
v. (动词)
