n.(名词)
  • purpose的基本意思是“目的,意图”,指某人做某事所要达到的某一特定目标,也可指某一事物在某一活动或另一事物中所起的“作用”,还可指“意志,毅力,决心”。
  • purpose后可跟介词in,也可跟介词of。当purpose前是物主代词时,后面的介词要用in,而不能用of; 当purpose前是定冠词the时,后面的介词要用of,而不用in。purpose后不可跟介词for。
  • 在for...purposes短语中, purpose一般多用复数形式,表示泛指的“目的”; 在for purpose(s) of短语中, purposes一般表示泛指, purpose表示特指。
v.(动词)
  • purpose用作动词时意思是“有意,打算”,指在头脑中形成做某一事情的方案,使一切活动都朝着这一方案实施的方向发展。
  • purpose主要用作及物动词,后接名词、代词、动名词、动词不定式或由that引导的从句作宾语。
n.(名词)
purpose, aim, goal
  • 这组词的共同含义是“目的”,常通用,如aim〔goal,purpose〕 in life人生目标。它们之间的区别主要在于:
  • 1.goal指比较宏大的总目标; purpose指近期比较确定的意图; aim指短期内比较具体、实际的目标。例如:
  • He often asked himself what his goal in life should be.他常常自问人生的目标该是什么。
  • Do you come here for the purpose of seeing your family or for business purpose?你来此地是为了看家还是为了做生意?
  • Their aim was to take over industry for her.他们的目标是为她接管产业。
  • 再如下面把aim和goal用在同一个句子里,其区别就更明显易见了:
  • His aim was to pass his examinations this year and go to college so he could eventually reach his goal of being a teacher.他的目标是今年考上大学,以便最终实现当教师的抱负。
  • 2.purpose强调“有意去做”(行动坚决); aim强调“集中精力去做”(联想“瞄准”)。在努力程度上, aim比purpose要弱。例如:
  • I am afraid he did it on purpose.我担心他是有意这么做的。
  • His only aim in life is to make a fortune.他生活的唯一目标是赚钱发财。
  • 3.goal具有理想性,并不强调最后一定要实现; purpose和aim则暗示能够实现,这在动词aim for中体现最明显。例如:
  • The presidency was the goal of his ambition.他的奋斗目标是当总统。
  • His aim is to become a doctor.他的目标是当一个医生。
  • 4.purpose可以由他人来完成; 而goal则往往靠自己去努力。例如:
  • The purpose of a tutorial system was to let each student realize his own educational goal.导师制旨在让学生认清自己的学习目标。
  • 5.aim不如goal和purpose生动。
  • n.(名词)

      The table is not sufficiently wide to our purpose.

      The table is not sufficiently wide for our purpose.

      The table is not wide enough for our purpose.

      I didn't want to hurt you on the purpose.

      I didn't want to hurt you on purpose.

      This is our purpose in publishing our opinions on this matter.
