NOTE 辨析 Try or attempt? Try has a more general meaning and is used more often in informal conversation. Attempt is more formal and places the emphasis more on the act of starting to do sth rather than on the effort put into achieving it. When followed by a noun, attempt usually refers to an effort to do sth which was not successful or is unlikely to be successful. * try的含義更寬泛,更常用於非正式的談話。attempt更正式,更強調開始做某事的舉動,而非爲實現某事付諸的努力。後接名詞時,attempt通常指做某事的努力沒有成功或不太可能成功The prisoners attempted an escape, but failed.那些囚犯試圖逃跑,但失敗了。
seek (sought, sought) [transitive] (always used in the phrase seek to do sth 總是用於短語seek to do sth) (formal) to try to do sth, often sth that might take a long time 試圖,設法(常指做費時的事)The research project will seek to find an answer to this question.這個研究項目將力求找到這個問題的答案。 see also seek ask verb 2 , seek look verb 2 struggle [intransitive, transitive] to try very hard to do sth when it is difficult or when there are a lot of problems 奮鬥;努力;爭取Shona struggled for breath.肖納喘不上氣來。The family struggled through the next few years.全家人在此後幾年生活艱難。I'm really struggling with this essay.這篇文章讓我很費勁。They struggled just to pay their bills.他們辛苦所得勉強夠支付開銷。 see also struggle effort noun strive (strove, striven) [intransitive] (formal) to try very hard, usually over a long period of time, to achieve sth or defeat sth 努力;(長期)奮鬥;力爭;力求We constantly strive for excellence in design.我們不斷力求卓越的設計。They were always striving towards perfection.他們總是力臻完美。 endeavour (BrE) (NAmE endeavor) ɪnˈdevə(r) [transitive] (always followed by to + infinitive 總是後接帶to的不定式) (formal) to try very hard to do sth, especially sth that needs a lot of effort 努力,盡力,竭力(尤指做需要付出很多努力的事)I will endeavour to do my best for my country.我將盡忠報國。 see also endeavour effort noun have a ˈgo
