我想问一下 hesitate about doing sth 与 hesitate in doing sth 的区别,网上虽然也有解释,但不是很清楚。谢谢老师!
刘老师:
hesitate 是不及物动词,后接about, in或at,表示“对(做)某事犹豫不决”。
hesitate 也可以跟to do,它与hesitate about doing 和hesitate in doing,虽然结构不同,但是意思一样。一般通用即可,不必仔细区分,过细的区别词语用法对学习无益,希望把精力用在更多的地方。例如:
他对于是否参加远征队犹豫不决。
He hesitates to join the expedition.
He hesitates about joining the expedition.
He hesitates in joining the expedition.
