1.continue to do=continue doing,即表示继续做某事,其后既可接动名词也可接不定式,且意义相同.如:
They continued to meet [meeting] daily.他们继续每天都见面.
He continued to write [writing] while in hospital.他住院时他继续写作.
2.表示继续维持某一情况时,其后可直接跟名词作宾语,也可先接介词with 再接宾语.如:
We will continue (with) the payments for another year.我们这样的报酬还要维持1年.
3.按传统语法,表示中断以后再继续,其后常常只能是story,speech,journey,strike 这样的名词,而不能接不定式或动名词,但现代英语已打破此规则.如:
We continued working [to work] after the break.休息后我们继续工作.
4.由于可用于及物或不及物动词,因此【本文标题:continue的用法】有时用主动语态和被动语态意思差不多.如:
The story continues [is continued] in the next issue of the magazine.这个故事在该杂志的下一期里继续刊载.
5.比较 continue doing sth 与 continue by doing sth:前者表示“继续做某事”,后者表示“接着做某事”.如:
He continued reading (=to read) all night.他通宵在看书.
He talked about Keats,and continued by reading us a poem.他谈了济慈,接着给我们朗诵了一首诗.
6.continued on page 15与continued from page 15 所用介词不同,意思也不同:前者指“下续第15页”,后者指“上接第15页”.
7.可用作连系动词,其后可接形容词、介词短语等.如:
We hope the weather will continue fine.我们希望天气继续较好.
Mother continues in weak health.母亲身体仍然很虚弱.
