继昨天的“改善”,今天墨尔本文波雅思文波老师就继续给大家讲讲写作里的“恶化”。
deteriorate vi.to become worse
Ethel’s health has deteriorated. Ethel 的健康在恶化。
America’s deteriorating economy 美国正在恶化的经济。
deteriorate into sth :to develop into a bad or worse situation
The argument deteriorated into a fight. 这场讨论演变成了打斗
exacerbate vt. (fml 文) make (pain, disease, a situation) worse; aggravate 使(疼痛﹑ 疾病﹑ 情形)恶化; 加剧:
Scratching exacerbates a skin rash. 皮疹搔後会恶化.
Her mother’s interference exacerbated the difficulties in their marriage. 她母亲从中干预使他们的婚姻雪上加霜.
worsen vt.& vi.v to become worse or make something worse
vi. A lot of teachers expect the situation to worsen over the next few years. 很多老师认为这种情况在接下来的几年会恶化。
vt. Interfering now could worsen the problem. 现在干涉会让这个问题恶化。
文波老师提示:
deteriorate 是不及物动词,后面可以加into 指恶化成…
exacerbate 是及物动词,使动用法, 很多动词都是这样。注意拼写很近的另外一个词:exasperate vt. 使…生气 发音不一样
worsen 既是及物有时不及物动词,但是不如上面两个词书面。
