「stop」的用法
stop + 动名词意指「结束某个进行中的动作」,而两个动词之间没有因果关系。
举例
- I stopped working for them last year.
- I have stopped cycling to work.
- Could you stop bringing your dog to the office?
- He stopped eating meat in January.
stop + 不定词意指「为了做另一件事而中断某件事」,因此不定词是用来表达停止某动作的意图。
举例
- I stopped to have lunch at 12:00.
- It's difficult to concentrate on what you are doing if you have to stop to answer the phone every five minutes.
- We stopped to look at the wildflowers.
- I stopped to take a break, but I'll start again soon.
