问题描述
I met with lots of difficulties in the work.
这里的介词 in 能否改为 with,意思上有什么不同吗?
老师答疑
刘老师:
1. 关于difficulties之后接的介词,有时候in和with都是对的,只是意思不同。
I met with a lot of difficulties in the work. 我在工作中遇到了不少困难。
(in the work表示“在工作中”)
I had a lot of difficulties with the work. 我在应付/处理这项工作时有许多麻烦。
(with the work表示“在应对/处置这项工作方面”)又如:
I don't want to have any difficulties with the Governor. 我不愿跟州长发生任何纠葛。
所以,你的句子可以改为with。只是谓语动词met 后有了一个with,显得重复,去掉这个with就好了,免得一句有两个with。
2. 此外,difficulty用单数或复数均可,但意思有区别。
在没有任何冠词,而且是单数的情况下(一般跟have 搭配:have difficulty),difficulty是不可数名词,表示抽象意义,相当于trouble。
如果difficulty改为复数形式difficulties,则表示具体的困难、难事、矛盾,而且不止一个。例如:
I always have difficulty in pronouncing new words. 对新单词的发音我总是有困难。
(含义是:发音不容易)
I met with a lot of difficulties in the work. 我在工作中遇到了不少困难。
(含义是:遇到具体的难事)
3.have difficulty 是英语的习惯表达,一般用单数。在其他情况下,多数使用复数difficulties。
陈老师:
(1)sb have difficulty with sth 某人在某事方面有困难.
I have difficulty with English.
(2)sb have difficulty (in) doing sth某人在做某事上有苦难
I have difficult in learning English.
(1)Did you have difficulty in finding your way?
(2)He has some difficulty with pronunciation.
(备注:以上difficulty, 可被 problem, trouble替换)
