用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. prompt用作动词时可作“促使”“激励”“唤起”“驱使”解,可接名词或代词作宾语,也可接以动词不定式或“to be+ adj. ”充当补足语的复合宾语。
  2. prompt也可作“提示台词给…人”“提示”解,可用于被动结构。
v. (动词)
prompt, actuate, drive, move
  • 这组词均有促使某人按某种方式行动的意思。其区别是：
  • move为一般用语,不强调动因是外部力量还是个人的动机; actuate为正式用语,动因来自一种强大的内在力量,如强烈的感情、欲望或信念; drive指持续不断地向前推进,或指受内力或外力的驱使; prompt多用于动因不太重要的场合。例如:
  • He is actuated not by kindness but by ambition.他并非出于好心,而是出于个人野心。
  • They drove to the station.他们开车到车站去。
  • The sight of the ships prompted thoughts of his distant home.看到船他便想起遥远的故乡。
    • prompt, arouse, incite, induce
  • 这组词的共同意思是“促成”“促使”。其区别在于:induce含有引导的意思,不见得有坏的动机; arouse常指引起注意,使觉醒或唤起某种感情; incite指由于强烈的情感而引起的行动,可指好的方面或坏的方面; prompt是常用词,指对一件可能发生的事情起导火线作用,重点在最终促使事情的发生。
    • motivate，drive，prompt
  • 这些动词均含“促使、驱使”之意。
  • motivate强调驱使人们采取行动的原因或动机。
  • drive侧重外来的驱策力和内心的感情力量的驱使。
  • prompt与motivate近义，强调起因。
    • 用作动词 (v.)
