易混词辨析
follows、achieves、succeeds
1. succeeds:动词第三人称单数 “成功;继承;接替(多义,“成功” 指达成目标,“继承” 指继承财产 / 地位,“接替” 指接任职位)”(搭配 “succeeds in business;succeeds to the throne;succeeds his father”);
2. follows:动词第三人称单数 “跟随;接着(侧重 “时间 / 顺序上在后,无 “成功 / 继承” 义”)”,近义差异(“follows the meeting”(会议之后) vs “succeeds the meeting”(错误);“succeeds him as manager”(接替他当经理) vs “follows him as manager”(错误));
3. achieves:动词第三人称单数 “实现;取得(侧重 “达成目标,无 “继承 / 接替” 义”)”,近义差异(“achieves a goal”(达成目标) vs “succeeds in a goal”(实现目标,可通用));
4. 高频错拼:易漏写双 “c”(误写 “succeeds” 为 “succeeds”);
5. 用法误区:“继承 / 接替” 用 “succeeds to”(正确,如 “succeeds to the estate”(继承遗产)),“follows/achieves” 无此义;“成功” 两者可通用,但 “succeeds in” 更正式。
词语辨析
succeed in,succeed with
【解说】这两个短语都可以表示“成功地做…”。它们的区别是以成功的人作主语时用succeed in;以事物作主语时用succeed with。例如He has succeeded in the attempt.The attempt succeeded with him.他的那次尝试成功了。succeed,continue,go on,last
【解说】参见continue条。succeed,ensue,follow,supervene
【解说】
这四个词都有“接着发生”的意思。它们的区别是ensue指具有因果关系的事物连续发生;follow指事物按照时间顺序、逻辑关系连续发生;succeed强调相似的人或事物、事件按一定的顺序不间断的接踵而至,尤指时间或空间上的连续;supervene指意外的发生。例如After the heavy rains,floods ensued.暴雨之后发生了水灾。A silence succeeded his words.他说完话后是一阵的沉默。The meeting went on until lack of time supervened.会议因时间不足而结束。下面两句意思相同
【解说】The present Queen succeeded the throne upon the death of her father.The present Queen succeeded to the throne upon the death of her father.现任女王在她父亲去世后继承了王位。continue,resume,succeed,go on
【解说】这些动词或短语均有“继续”之意。continue普通用词。或指持续而不停止,或有一段中断后又继续下去。resume指中断后的继续。succeed侧重指有规律地连续。go on通俗用词,多用于口语中。go on+-ing表暂停后继续做原事,相当于后继续的内容与原来的内容相同。go on+不定式指做完某事后,接着做不同的另一件事。
