用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. occupy的基本意思是指时间、空间、地点方面的占有,引申可用于指某人占据某个职位或发挥某种作用。
  2. occupy只用作及物动词,接名词或代词作宾语。occupy常用于occupy oneself in/with v -ing句型中表示“从事于”“忙于”,可用于被动结构。
v. (动词)
occupy, have, have got, hold, own
  • 这组词(组)的共同意思是“有”“拥有”“具有”。其区别是：
  • 1.have既可指有生命物及无生命物之间的所属关系,也可指部分与整体的关系,或指精神上、身体上的特点; have got与have意义相同,但在口语中比have用得广泛; own则指具有在法律上的所有权,即使不在身边的东西,只要拥有法律上的所有权,就应用own; hold语气较强,有占据、控制、抓住〔保持〕住某物的意思; 而occupy则指占有空间、时间或占领、占据某地,或拥有某种职务或地位等。例如:
  • I didn't have the books that she asked for.我没有她所要的书。
  • Your books have got all over the place.你的书到处都是。
  • They don't hold the power to hire or fire at will.他们没有雇用或随意解雇的权力。
  • Enemy troops occupied the country.敌军占领了这个国家。

  • These enterprises are owned by him.这些企业是属于他的。
