prevent的詳細講解：
詞語用法
- prevent的基本意思是“止”,可表示“阻止”(某計劃或意圖)、“防止”(已有兆頭的險事、惡事)、“制止”(某人做某事)等,強調做好預先的防備或準備,含有“阻止成功”的意味。
- prevent主要用作及物動詞,可接名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語,不接不定式作賓語。用作prevent賓語的動名詞前常有物主代詞或者名詞,人稱代詞賓格表示其邏輯主體。prevent可用于被動結構。prevent偶爾也可用作不及物動詞。
- 表示“阻止做某事”,可用prevent sb/sb's v -ing,也可用prevent sb from v -ing,這幾種用法在意義上沒有明顯的區別。
- prevent指“阻止成功”，如果阻止了，但是沒有成功，不可用prevent。如果說她阻止他去，實際上他的確沒有去，可以說She prevented him from going.但是他不聽勸，還是去的話，要說She tried to prevent him from going, but he still went；
-
prevent加賓語時，賓語后不可接不定式。
She prevented him to go.
該句是錯誤的表達。
詞義辨析
- prevent, block
-
- 這二者都可表示“阻止”,其區別是：
- prevent表示某種障礙阻止某人做某事, block指有效地堵住了所有的通道,使人、物等無法通過。例如:
- Bad weather prevented us from starting.惡劣的天氣使我們不能動身。
- Heavy snow blocked our road.大雪堵住了我們的去路。
- prevent, hinder
-
- 這組詞的共同意思是“阻止,使某事受阻”,指有意或無意中形成的干擾。其區別是：
- prevent指“阻止”某事發生或存在; hinder指“延緩”某一事物的進行。
- prevent, preclude
-
- 這組詞都表示“阻止”。其區別在于:prevent強調存在不可逾越的障礙, preclude則強調存在某種情況、條件或預防措施而阻止了某事的發生。
- block，bar，hinder，obstruct，prevent，hamper
-
- 這些動詞均含有“阻止、阻塞”之意。
- block語氣強烈，指有效堵住了通道，使人或物無法通過。
- bar含義與block很接近，指阻塞通道或禁止出入，但有暗示不用障礙物的阻止或禁止。
- hinder語氣較輕，多指阻礙、拖延人或事，強調使進展速度緩慢下來。
- obstruct正式用詞，語氣強，多指以干擾或設置障礙的方式阻礙交通，使不能自由暢通。
- prevent含義廣泛，指采取預防措施或設置障礙去阻止某人或某事。
- hamper側重因受到約束或阻礙而造成的行動困難。
常見錯誤
-
她企圖阻止他去,但他還是去了。
誤 She prevented him from going, but he still went.
正 She tried to prevent him from going, but he still went.
析 prevent表示“阻止”成功,如果阻止未成功則應該說try to prevent。
誰也不能阻止這個計劃的實現。誤 No one can prevent the plan from carrying out.
正 No one can prevent the plan from being carried out.
析 在prevent...from...結構中,若介詞from后的賓語有被動意義,則要用動名詞的被動形式。
沒有什么能阻止他獨立作環球航行。誤 Nothing could prevent him to sail round the world single-handed.
正 Nothing could prevent him from sailing round the world single-handed.
正 Nothing could prevent him sailing round the world single-handed.
正 Nothing could prevent his sailing round the world single-handed.
析 表示“阻止某人做某事”,可以說prevent sb from v -ing, prevent sb v -ing或prevent sb's v -ing,但不能說prevent sb to- v sth。
詞源解說
- ☆ 15世紀初期進入英語，直接源自拉丁語的prventus，意為妨礙。
