Books afford us knowledge.书本给我们学问。



afford是个动词,一般只买得起。但上句中的afford是指提供和给予的意思。又例如:



Dancing affords us pleasure.跳舞给我们带来快乐。



afford表示买得起的意思时要注意它的使用,它一般要和表示能够的情态动词或动词短语连用,例如一般和can`could`be able to等。



I cannot afford that car.我买不起那辆车。



afford还指受的起...的后果,不过很多时候都用在否定句中。



We cannot afford missing 1 the train.我们承受不起赶不上火车的后果。



I cannot afford losing this competition.我输不起这场比赛。



1 missing
adj.遗失的,缺少的,失踪的
  • Check the tools and see if anything is missing.检点一下工具,看有无丢失。
  • All the others are here;he's the only one missing.别人都来了,就短他一个。
