释义 | 1.start(动身)往往用现在时态或现在进行时态代将来时态,如 I start tomorrow 或 I am starting tomorrow 作 I shall start tomorrow 解。 2.I shall start for Shanghai tomorrow 等句子里通常用 for,很少用 to。He started from the city yesterday 等句子里用 from,不用 at。 3.start in 和 start out 都作“开始”解(等于 start),都是不及物动词,都有口语性质,都在美国比在英国普通。例如:He started(in 或out)on the task at once. 和 We'll start(in 或out)by washing the floors. 4.下面五句意思相仿: I shall soon start doing it. I shall soon start to do it. I shall soon start in to do it. I shall soon start out to do it. I shall soon start in doing it. 第一句比第二句正式。第三句有口语性质,在美国比在英国普通。第四句也有口语性质,也在美国比在英国普通,用在长久的事,不用在一时的事,如可以说 I shall start out to study German next month,不可说 I shall start out to prepare a lesson in German at eight o'clock。第五句是美国英语。 就语法讲,start doing 里的 start 被当作不及物动词或及物动词,doing 被当作现在分词或动名词,都可以。start to do 里的 start 是不及物动词,start in 里的 in 是副词,start in doing 里的 doing 是现在分词。 5.He got started in business with his uncle's help 和 Somehow I got started collecting stamps 里的 got started 属于被动语态。 6.at the start 和from the start 的区别,相当于 at the beginning 和from the beginning 的区别,参见 beginning 1 |
