Continued
表示动作或状态在中断或未中断的情况下延续。新闻标题常用 “continued growth” 描述趋势;法律或政策文本里 “continued use” 强调持续性。
- “Rain continued through the night.” (雨下了一整夜。)
- “She continued working while listening to music.” (她一边听音乐一边继续工作。)
- “The team continued its winning streak for five games.” (球队把连胜延续到了五场。)
“Continue” 源自拉丁语 “continuāre”,由 “continuus”(连续的)派生,词根 “contin-” 表达“连结不断”。
前缀 “con-” 表“共同、加强”,与词根结合后强调“连贯”;过去式 “-ed” 为规则变化。
媒体报道中 “continued coverage” 表示滚动更新;日常对话里语气中性,强调“没停”。
- 固定搭配: “continued support” (持续支持), “to be continued” (未完待续)
“continue” 里藏着 “tin” 连续的叮当声,加上 “-ed” 就是“那串叮当声已经响了一阵”。
“The band continued the set even after a string broke on the guitar.” (即使吉他断了一根弦,乐队仍继续演出。)
