promoting
基本解釋
- vt.促進(jìn);提升;升遷;發(fā)起;促銷,推銷
詞源解說(shuō)
- 14世紀(jì)晚期進(jìn)入英語(yǔ),直接源自拉丁語(yǔ)的promotus:pro (向前) + motus (移動(dòng)),意為向前移動(dòng)。
用法辨析
- promote作“提升為…”“使升入…”解時(shí)多指按常規(guī)次序遞進(jìn)。用作及物動(dòng)詞,接名詞或代詞作賓語(yǔ),還可接“(to be+) n. ”充當(dāng)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)的復(fù)合賓語(yǔ), promote常與介詞to連用,此時(shí)通常用于被動(dòng)結(jié)構(gòu)。
- promote作“促進(jìn)”“提倡”“鼓勵(lì)”解時(shí),指強(qiáng)調(diào)外界的有利因素促使事物朝著預(yù)期的目標(biāo)發(fā)展,可用于事物發(fā)展的各個(gè)階段。用作及物動(dòng)詞,接名詞或代詞作賓語(yǔ),還可接疑問(wèn)詞引導(dǎo)的從句作賓語(yǔ)。
- promote還可作“籌建”解,用作及物動(dòng)詞,一般指籌劃比賽,開辦公司等之類的活動(dòng)。
- promote解釋為“升遷”的意思,以下兩種表達(dá)方式意思相近。The officer has been promoted to the rank of general. The officer has been promoted to general.
- 不能說(shuō)The officer has been promoted to be general;
- promote解釋為“促進(jìn)”時(shí),一般都意為好的東西,不可用于不好的,如戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)。International friendship promotes peace.
v. (動(dòng)詞)
