    同近义词辨析

    attempt, strive, endeavour, try

    这组词都有“试图,努力,力图”的意思,其区别是:

    attempt较正式用词,侧重已经开始,且希望完成,但常隐含着不一定有预期的结果。

    strive和endeavour一样,表示付出巨大努力,但strive侧重劳累与紧张,而不强调努力的结果。

    endeavour正式用词,指尽最大努力、认真地克服困难去做某事。

    try普通用词,可与attempt换用,但强调努力或尝试,后跟不定式表示努力或争取;后跟动名词表示尝试。

    trouble, struggle, pains, effort, endeavour

    这组词都有“努力”的意思,其区别是:

    trouble和pains均侧重在面临困难或阻力时所作的努力,但强调在努力时的细心和谨慎,相比之下,pains更适合表示尽力的努力。

    struggle指为克服困难或阻力所作的努力,也指因决心、意志或干劲而产生的极大努力。

    pains

    effort通常指完成某特定任务所需付出的或大或小的努力,可指一次的努力,也可指坚持不懈的努力。

    endeavour指持久的,坚持不懈的,甚至是终身的努力,强调努力的认真与决心。
