Q1对错判断
判断下面句子里 attempt 的用法是否正确:
She attempted at learning Japanese in her spare time.
✓ 正确版本
She attempted to learn Japanese in her spare time.
她在业余时间尝试学习日语。
attempt 动词直接接不定式(attempt to do),不接 at doing;make an attempt at sth. 才用 at,且后接名词而非动名词。
Q2近义选词
选择最恰当的词填空:
After three failed ___, the climber finally reached the summit.
Aattempts
Btries
✓ 经过三次失败的尝试,登山者终于到达了山顶。
正式书面语境(三次失败的重大挑战)用 attempts;tries 在此语法上无误,但 attempts 更书面,且暗含攀登山峰的难度与严肃性。
Q3翻译应用
用 attempt 翻译下面句子(可参考 writing_upgrade 字段的搭配):
人类曾多次试图解决贫困问题,但彻底根除仍然任重道远。
Humans have attempted to solve the problem of poverty many times, but complete eradication remains a distant goal.
关键搭配:attempted to solve
attempt to do 描述面对重大挑战的努力,比 try to do 更书面,且暗含「任务艰巨、结果不保证」,适合议论文谈持续性社会问题。
