问题描述
表示“对……来说至关重要”,有时见到 crucial for,有时见到 crucial to,请问两者有什么区别吗?我在牛津词典上查了一下,发现上面有后接 for / to sth 的用法,但没有说它们之间的区别。请专家老师分析和指导一下,非常感谢!
老师答疑
陈老师:
▲表示“对……来说至关重要”,用 crucial for 和 crucial to 均可,两者常可换用。如:
The answer to this question is crucial for the future of the human race. 解答这个问题对人类的未来极为重要。(《朗文多功能分类词典》)
Early diagnosis of the illness is crucial for successful treatment. 及早诊治对于治疗的成功十分重要。(《牛津中阶英语词典》)
Her work has been crucial to the project’s success. 她的工作对于这个项目的成功至关重要。(《剑桥中阶英汉双解词典》)
The support of our fans was crucial to our winning the Super Bowl. 球迷的支持对我们赢得“超级杯”非常关键。(《朗文高阶英汉双解词典》)
▲两者后面不仅可接名词,而且还可以接动名词。如:
The talks are considered crucial for ending the violence. 谈判被认为对结束暴力有至关重要的作用。(《麦克米伦英汉双解词典》)
Resolving this issue is crucial to making peace work. 解决这个问题对于实现和平是至关重要的。(《麦克米伦高阶美语词典》)
▲《牛津英语搭配词典》在 survival 词条,给出了以下搭配:
be crucial for / to 对生存至关重要
be essential to 对生存来说必不可少
be necessary for 对生存来说必不可少
be vital for / to 生死攸关
另外,在《朗文实用英语词语搭配词典》还查到了以下例句:
These negotiations are crucial for [to] the future of our firm. 这些谈判对我们公司的未来至关重要。
黎老师:
A pleasant manner is crucial for success in business.
His decision was crucial in ending the war.
The next step is crucial to our success.

g老师:
要谈区别的话,请参照 important for vs important to。
另外,搜索语料库,得出 crucial to 和crucial for 之比:2638:807
