| 词组 | operate |
| 释义 | 1．下面各句里的 operate 和 operated 都有些美国英语味： They operate the school together. The theatre is well operated. I do not know how to operate a motor-car. This farm is operated by a hundred peasants. 在英国通常用 conduct, manage(d), run（或 ran）, carry（或 carried）on 等。 下面各句里的 operate 和 operated 也都有些美国英语味： The school and the library operate under the same management.（在英国通常用 are conducted） The doctor has operated in the city for years.（在英国通常用 practised） This custom seems to operate in several places.（在英国通常用 prevail） He operated in the negotiations with tact.（在英国通常用 acted） 2．说“对于（人或身体的某部分）施行外科手术”在 operate 后面接 on 或 upon。例如： The doctor operated (up)on me carefully. My right eye was operated (up)on for the detachment of the retina（视网膜剥离）on the afternoon of 9 October, 1956. 注意不可说 The doctor operated (up)on the detachment of the retina 或 The detachment of the retina was operated (up)on，该说 The doctor operated (up)on me（或 my right eye）for the detachment of the retina 和 I（或 My right eye）was operated (up)on for the detachment of the retina。 The doctor operated (up)on him carefully 等句子里的 on 或 upon 美国人（尤其医生们）往往省去，不算正当。 |
