词语用法

词义讲解

常见错误

词源解说

v.(动词)

work的基本意思是“有目的地从事体力或脑力方面的工作”,可指人工作、做事,也可指人学习、攻读、研究某事情或学科,还可指机器等运转、发动,计划等进展顺利,药发挥作用,暗示成功或有效等。

work可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作及物动词时,接名词或代词作宾语,有时可接以形容词或过去分词充当补足语的复合宾语。可用于被动结构。

work偶尔可用作系动词,接形容词作表语。

n.(名词)

work的基本意思是“工作,劳动,作业”,用于泛指时不可数,指具体的一项工作时用不定冠词a修饰。引申可作“职业,职务”“活计”“成果,产品,工艺品”“贸易”“特殊研究”“行为,作用,功”等解,是不可数名词,用作主语时,谓语动词须用单数形式。

work作“著作,作品”解时,多用复数形式works。

work作“工厂”“机件,内部的机件”“工程,工事”“(善良的)行为,善事”解时,常用复数形式,用作主语时,谓语动词可用单数形式,也可用作复数形式。

v.(动词)

work, function, operate

这三个词都有“功能”“作用”的意思。其区别在于： operate更强调成功大于结果; work暗示成功、有效; function暗示某物之目的、任务和结果。

n.(名词)

work, career, job

这组词都有“职业”“事业”的意思。

1.career指的是终身事业; 而job和work却指的是人们为谋生而做的工作。

2.job主要指有报酬的工作; 而work可指任何需要做出努力来完成的事。

v.(动词)

他们钻研这门学科已经多年了。

误 They have worked hard with this subject for many years.

正 They have worked hard at this subject for many years.

析表示“研究”“钻研”或“进行某项活动”时,可用work at,这里的at不可以用with替代。

误 He is working night this month, so he needs to rest during the day.

正 He is working nights this month, so he needs to rest during the day.

析说“上夜班”,不管上几个夜班,都是work nights,不是work night。

误 The ship worked the way into the harbor.

正 The ship worked its way into the harbor.

析表达“费劲地(到达某处)”时,可说work one's way。

误 Tom wants to work up to be a sales manager.

正 Tom wants to work up to being a sales manager.

析表达“逐步晋升至(某一职位)”时,可以用work up to,这里的to是介词,不是动词不定式符号。

误 We must each set a goal for ourselves and work for achieving it.

正 We must each set a goal for ourselves and work towards achieving it.

析 work for表示“为…工作”,而work toward(s)表示“朝…方向或目标”努力。

误 I used the key to open the door, but it didn't succeed.

正 I used the key to open the door, but it didn't work.

析 work用作不及物动词可表示“(办法、计划、方法等)行得通”。而succeed是指实施计划的人成功与否,而不能是事情本身。

误 We met with many difficulties when we worked out the new design.

正 We met with many difficulties when we worked on the new design.

误 He worked on the maths problem in a short time.

正 He worked out the maths problem in a short time.

析 work on意为“从事某工作”,是一个表示延续意义的短语; 而work out意为“研究出”“制订好”,是一个表示瞬时意义的短语。

n.(名词)

我在这个镇上找不到工作。

误 I cannot find a work in this town.

正 I cannot find work in this town.

误 I have a lot of works to do.

正 I have a lot of work to do.

析 work泛指“工作”时是不可数名词,不用定冠词修饰,也不可用于复数形式。

误 It is such unusual work of art that everyone wants to have a look at it.

正 It is such an unusual work of art that everyone wants to have a look at it.

析 work of art(艺术品)中的work作“作品”解,是可数名词,故冠词an不可省。

误 I got up and got ready to go to my work.

正 I got up and got ready to go to work.

析 go to work作“上班”解,其中不插入my〔your,his〕等。同样, leave work作“下班”解,其中也不插入my〔your,his〕等。

误 Millions of men are out of the work.

正 Millions of men are out of work.

析表达“失业”用out of work, work前不可加定冠词the。同样,表达“有工作”说in work,中间也不加the。

误 He has served in the Shanghai Iron Work for ten years.

正 He has served in the Shanghai Iron Works for ten years.

析 work作“工厂”解时,习惯用复数形式。

误 Owing to the pressure of the work,I have to decline your kind invitation.

正 Owing to pressure of work,I have to decline your kind invitation.

析 owing to pressure of work是习惯用语, work前无定冠词the。

误 You will achieve success by hard working.

正 You will achieve success by hard work.

正 You will achieve success by working hard.

析说“努力工作”,如果用名词work,应该说hard work,这里的hard是形容词; 如果用动名词working,要说working hard,这里的hard是副词。

误 The people in work are mostly young men.

正 The people at work are mostly young men.

析表示“(人)在工作”用at work,不用 in work。

误 How many workers are there in this textile works?

正 How many workers are there in this textile mill?

误 They are going to visit the Beijing Iron and Steel Mill.

正 They are going to visit the Beijing Iron and Steel Works.

析 works多指钢铁等重工业方面的工厂; mill多指纺织等轻工业方面的工厂。

☆ 直接源自古英语的weorc，意为做过的事。
