with the help of sb与with help from sb(有无定冠词)的区别

问题描述

with the help of sb / with sb's help 的用法比较熟悉。如：

She spoke with us with the help of an interpreter. 她靠翻译和我们交谈。

With the help of the police, I got back what I had lost. 在警察的帮助下，我找回了我失去的东西。

With the teacher’s help, I worked out the problem at last. 在老师的帮助下，我终于算出了这道习题。

在网上也见到过 with help from sb 的用法，不太熟悉，它是一个通常的用法吗？比如：

With help from the teacher, I finished the work in time.

另外，如果 with help from sb 也是合习惯的，它与 with the help of sb 有区别吗？

老师答疑

陈老师：

▲你说得对，with the help of sb（注意有the）是大家比较熟悉的用法，它的意思是“在某人的帮助下”“借助某人的帮助”。如：

She stopped smoking with the help of her family and friends. 她在家人和朋友的帮助下戒了烟。

The robbery may have been carried out with the help of a bent policeman. 抢劫有可能是在某个不良警察的帮助下得以进行的。

※另外，with the help of 还可用于事物（with the help of sth），意思是“借助……手段；依靠……方法”。如：

We broke open the lock with the help of spanner. 我们用扳手把锁撬开了。

They set up a business with the help of a bank loan. 他们用一笔银行贷款开了家公司。

With the help of a ladder, neighbours were able to rescue the children from the blaze. 邻居们借助一把梯子把孩子们从大火中救了出来。

▲你说的 with help from（通常没有the）也是一个完全正确的表达，其中的 from 表示“来自”，字面意思是“因为或凭借来自……的帮助”，也通常翻译成“在……的帮助下”。如：

Its independence was achieved in 1818 with help from Argentina. 在阿根廷的帮助下它于1818年获得独立。

With help from a parent, a child can do simple cooking. 在家长的帮助下，孩子可以做一些简单的饭菜。
