    start v-ing, start to-v

    start后可接动名词也可接动词不定式,一般来说在意义上没有区别。不过:
    1.接动名词时常说明动作将持续下去,接动词不定式时只表示动作的开始。试比较:
    She started talking about the old days, and kept on for more than an hour.
    她说起了过去的事情,一直说了一个多 小时。
    She started to speak, but stopped because I objected.
    她开始讲话,但因我反对而停了下来。
    2.表示无意识地“开始做某事”时,用动词不定式的情况多些。例如:
    Suddenly it started to rain.突然下起雨来。
    3.涉及多次活动时,用动名词的情况多些。例如:
    He used to start singing loudly when he felt frightened walking alone in the darkness.当他独自在黑暗中走路感到害怕时,便常常唱起歌来。
    4.用于进行体时只能接动词不定式。例如:
    It was cold and starting to snow.天很冷了,开始下起雪来。

  • 速记技巧

    词源记忆法

    本词的词源来源于日耳曼语start-,原始意义是“跳跃”,逐步演变为“突然移动”“开始一个旅程”,到18世纪末,“开始”的意义才成形。大家会发现startle(惊吓;惊跳;惊奇)就还保留了start的本意。
