be located 和locate有什么区别?
问题描述:
be located 和locate有什么区别?
不还是没区别么?我要具体的,或者例句。
答
be located最常见的用法就是“坐落在...”,比如the city is located in east China.
其实,这只是locate的一种用法而已.
由此可知,locate这个词首先有“把...放在某个地方;设置...”的意思,比如
they decided to locate the project in this small town.
此外,locate还有“寻找,定位”的意思,
比如they tried to locate the lost ship on the vast ocean.
总之,记住:表述事物(有时甚至是人)的所在位置时,所描述对象是不能主动去loate的,必须是be located;而在表述“放置、设置、定位”这样的动作时,动作的采取人可以直接跟locate,后面再直接跟动作的对象.
