请问 determine to do 与 be determined to do 有何区别?
词典解答
determine to do 与 be determined to do 的基本含义是相同的。只是前者强调动作,后者强调状态。在后一结构里,determined 是形容词,切不可把它看作过去分词,而把 be determined 看作是被动语态。其实它是个系表结构,表示的是心理状态(见 adjective ):
Marie was determined to go on working. 玛丽决心继续工作。
[注意] 在 decide 和 determine 接 that 从句时, that 从句的谓语要采用 should + 动词原形或直接用动词原形(虚拟现在时), 见 request, demand that。
