 我们先来看一个句子:


 
I'm very happy here.If you should have chance to see Todney ,you can tell him so.I`m here for keeps.
这句话的意思是:我在这里很愉快,如果你碰巧见到罗德尼的话,可以告诉他。我准备在这永远呆下去了。
 
For keeps 在这里是永远的意思。 
 
For keeps 这样使用时,相当于 for good 或 for good and all,如下面这句话里的for good and all 就可以用for keeps 替换。
 
When John graduated from school,he decided 1 that he was done with study for good and all .
约翰从学校毕业后,认为自己以后再也不用读书了。
 
然而,for keeps 的另一个意思是“认真”。前面常常加上一个play,表示“当真的”,“不是说着玩的。如:
 
The policeman knew that the robber was trying to shoot him. He was playing for keeps.
警察知道那个抢劫犯想枪杀他,那个歹徒可不是说着玩的。
 
那么假如你看到这样一个句子 该如何判断呢:
They played marbles for keeps。
 
这里是用了keep一词的本意,全句可译成:他们玩玻璃球游戏,赢家把球拿走。
 
这样一个简单的动词,不同的搭配会有不同的含义,所以遇到不懂的句子,大家要仔细分析,不要望文生义哦。

adj.决定了的,坚决的;明显的,明确的
  • This gave them a decided advantage over their opponents.这使他们比对手具有明显的优势。
  • There is a decided difference between British and Chinese way of greeting.英国人和中国人打招呼的方式有很明显的区别。
