.accuse / charge
accuse 和charge都有“指責(zé),控告”之意,有時(shí)可通用,但結(jié)構(gòu)不一樣。accuse不一定針對(duì)重大過(guò)失或罪行,其結(jié)構(gòu)為accuse sb of sth。而charge一般用于重大過(guò)失或罪行,其結(jié)構(gòu)為charge sb with sth,此結(jié)構(gòu)還有“使某人負(fù)有……責(zé)任”之意。例如:
例1:My father accused me of my being too careless. (父親責(zé)備我太粗心。)
例2:He accused me of neglecting my duty. (他指控我玩忽職守。)
例3:He charged me with neglecting my duty. (同上)
例4:Jimmy was charged with murder. (吉米被控謀殺。)
例5:He was charged with an important task. (他擔(dān)負(fù)有一項(xiàng)重要任務(wù)。)
