I have tired ___worrying about it.
问题描述:
I have tired ___worrying about it.
A. to stop consciously B. to consciously stop
选哪个?为什么?
答
我觉得选B
consciously 是副词,有意识地,自觉地
这题考察的是动词的位置.
一般条件下,副词位于动词后,修饰动词,副词的位置不同,修饰的内容就不同,句子的意思也就不同.当句子意思不通时,句子也就不成立.
若选A,I have tired to stop consciously worrying about it.
这里的 consciously 修饰的是 stop ,意为 下意识地停止
意思是 我已经在尝试下意识地停止担心下去.
显然,意思有点不通.
选B,I have tired to consciously stop worrying about it.
这里的 consciously 修饰的是 tired to,意为下意识地尝试
意思就变成 我已经在下意识地尝试停止担心下去.
