词组 abstract
释义 abstract
      The verb abstract, in most of its senses, takes the preposition from, if it takes one at all. The usual pattern is to "abstract a thing from something else." Occasionally we find that "something is abstracted by something else" or "something is abstracted into something else." These last two patterns are much less frequent than constructions with from. Here are some examples of the usual construction:
