文法講座 034:動詞 keep 及 keep/paint/find/leave + O + OC 句型
http://www.learnerhall.org/2013/01/keep-keeppaintfindleave-o-oc.html
▍keep 當「繼續」解釋,等同於 continue; go on,後方需接「動名詞」Ving
例:儘管繼續向前邁進。做你該做的,且為自己而做。
Just keep moving forward and do what you have to do, for you!
Just keep moving forward and do what you have to do, for you!
▍keep 當「保持」解釋,常用於下方句型:
keep (保持/讓) / paint / find (發覺) / leave (讓…) + 名詞(受詞) + 形容詞(受詞補語)
例:我很抱歉,讓你久等了。
I am sorry to have kept you waiting.
I am sorry to have kept you waiting.
➤受詞 you 可主動執行 wait 這動作,故用帶「主動進行」意味的 Ving 分詞當形容詞。
例:人們總覺得快樂過日子很難。因為他們眼中的過去太美好,現況太嚴峻,而未來太茫然。
