v. (动词)
advance against, advance on〔upon〕, advance to, advance towards
  • 这组短语的共同意思是“进攻”,它们之间的区别是：
  • 1.advance to后只接“地点”; advance against 后只接“人”; advance on〔upon〕与advance towards后可接“地点”,也可接“人”。
  • 2.接“地点”时,用towards表示“方向”; 用to表示“抵达”; 用on虽表示方向,却意在“抵达”,力图“攻占”。
    • advance, further, promote
  • 这三个词的共同意思是“促进”,都用作及物动词。它们之间的区别是：
  • 1.advance强调的是效果; promote强调的是外界的有利条件。例如：
  • Selfless patriots advanced the cause of liberation.无私的爱国者促进了解放事业的发展。
  • A good example serves to promote good manners in the young.好榜样可促使青年人讲礼貌。
  • 2.advance的动机一般是好的; 而promote有时指带有特殊动机的援助。例如：
  • He promoted his own welfare at the expense of others.他不惜以他人利益为代价换取自己的利益。
  • 3.promote一般指发展积极因素; advance主要指发展积极因素,偶尔可指消极的副作用; further则不带任何色彩,既可指发展积极因素,也可指追求消极目的。例如：
  • We'll do all we can to further your plans.我们将竭尽全力推进你的计划。
  • Crisis conditions furthered the spreading of rumours.危机更加剧了这种谣言的传播。
    • advance, proceed, progress
  • 这三个词的共同意思是“向前进”,都用作不及物动词。它们之间的区别是：

  • Slowly but surely they advanced towards their objective.他们缓慢地,但稳步地向着目标前进。
  • The boy's piano-playing is progressing.那男孩的钢琴弹奏在进步中。
  • The talks proceeded in a friendly atmosphere.会谈是在友好的气氛中进行的。
  • 2.advance和progress常可互换。例如：
  • Have you progressed〔advanced〕 in your studies?你在学习中取得了进步吗?
  • 不过, progress注重目的性,而advance更注重效果。另外progress常可用于比喻义。例如：
  • In three hours we hardly progressed at all.有3个小时我们简直寸步难行。
  • 3.proceed可接动词不定式,而advance和progress不可。
  • 4.祈使句中proceed用得多,例如：
  • Let's proceed to the next item.咱们进行下个议程吧。
    • advance, move on
  • 这两者都可表示“前进”。其区别是：
  • move on是非正式用语,指从一点向另一地点前进,但不表明所前进的目的地; advance表示向一固定目标或目的地推进。例如:
  • The blackboard moved on.那块黑板继续向前移动。
  • Napoleon's army advanced on Moscow.拿破仑的军队向莫斯科推进。
    • n. (名词)
    advance, advancement
  • advance和advancement是与动词advance对应的两个名词,意思相近。它们之间的区别在于：
  • 1.名词advance是与作为不及物动词的advance对应的; 而名词advancement则是与作为及物动词的advance对应的。
  • 2.advance表示的是“不及物的动作”,而advancement表示的是“及物的动作”。例如：
  • China's industrial advance has been remarkable.中国工业的进展是很惊人的。
  • His advancement to such a high position has been rapid.他很快地升到了这样高的地位。
  • 3.这两个名词后面都可接of短语, advance后的of短语表示动作的发出者(即主谓关系); 而advancement后的of短语表示动作的承受者(即动宾关系)。例如：
  • the advance of science 科学的发展; the Royal Society for the Advancement of Science 皇家科学促进会
  • 4.表示“行军”“向…前进”时,只能用advance,不能用advancement。
  • 5.在某些固定短语里,如in advance, in advance of等,只能用advance,不能用advancement。
    • adj. (形容词)
    advance, advanced
  • advance和advanced的区别在于：
  • 1.在词义上, advance表示“预先的”“在前头的”; 而advanced则表示“先进的”“高级的”。
  • 2.advanced可以用作定语,间或可用作表语,习惯接介词in; 而advance只能用作定语,不能用作表语。例如：
  • Most people find her advanced ideas difficult to accept.多数人发现她那些先进的思想是难以接受的。
  • My views are too advanced for her to accept.我的观点对她来说太先进了,她无法接受。
  • He was advanced in years.他年事已高。
  • We have given them advance warning.我们已向他们预先发出警告了。
  • 3.advanced可以有比较级和最高级,即more advanced(更先进的); most advanced (最先进的)。
    • advance，progress，proceed，move on，go
  • 这些动词均含“前进，行进，进展”之意。
  • advance主要用于具体的人或物，也可指科学技术和运动等。
  • progress指按某一既定目标前进，取得发展，目的性很明确，强调经常和稳定地前进。
  • proceed侧重指继续前进。
  • move on非正式用语，侧重从某一停止点向某地前进，但不表示前进的目的地。
  • go最常用词，含义宽泛而不确切，依上文确定其具体意思。
    • advance，advancement
  • 这两个词都有“前进”、“进步”和“进展”之意。
  • advance含有自动的意味，advance of science是“科学的进步”。
  • advancement含有被动的意味。例如：advancement of science则是“科学的被人推进”。
