用法讲解

  1. 当occasion要表达“在……情况，场合下”的意思时，前面应与英语介词on搭配。

    I met strangers on that occasion.
    在那次我遇见了一些陌生人。

  2. on occasion还有“偶尔地”的意思。

    I call on him on occasion.
    我偶尔去拜访他。

  3. have occasion to…表示“有……的必要”，have no/little occasion to表示“没有……的必要”。此时occasion前面不能用冠词an或the。

    I have no occasion to see him these days.
    我最近没必要见他。

  4. occasion指“机会”时，有“take occasion to…”的用法，表达“趁着机会做…”的意思。其反义词则是“not take occasion to…”，表示“不趁着……”。这里occasion前不能用冠词an或the；
  5. 当occasion用作动词表示“引起”，“致使”时，可用双宾语结构。

    His long silence occasions me great anxiety.
    他漫长的沉默让我焦虑不已。
