用法辨析
- assume的基本意思是“想当然”,即指人假定某事物是真实的,它可以指事物本身的真实性,也可以表示事物会发生什么样的结果。
- assume作“假设”解时,指在证据很少或者存有异议时,甚至在根本没有证据的情况下进行推测,含有较强的武断成分。
- assume还可表示“装出一种虚假或骗人的表情”。
- assume后可接that从句,表示“假定某人会…”。
- assume与presume都有“假定”的意思,但是前者只是一种假设,后者是认定是正确的,真实的,在等待被认定;
- assume后常接that,而presume后不接that。I assume that you can do it. 我假定你能做。I presume you can do it. 我认定你能做。
- 使用assuming时,不用指明它是属于哪个固定的词。Even assuming a great willingness on the part of all our friends to help, we must not forget that few of them are properly prepared for it. 尽管我们假设只有部分朋友是情愿,帮忙的,但我们不能忘了他们中的少数是真的准备了的。Even assuming a great willingness on the part of all our friends to help, few of them are properly prepared for it. 上面两个表达方式都是正确的。
