Question

解析"using"和"by using"的区别

Answer 1

"using"
和
"by
using",
他们的分别在於写作手法上的分别.
在这两句例句中的
"using"
和
"by
using"
是一样的.
不过
"by
using"
是明确地指出
"Users
can
express
themselves"
是透过"Using
clips,
lines
from
the
movies"
来达到的.
而
"using"
的只是隐含的意思,
让读者去决定其意思.
不过通常透过该两句子句中是可以知道
"透过"
的关系.
(1)
Because
he
did
not
have
enough
sleep,
Jack
tripped
over
the
threshold
of
the
door.
(2)
Not
having
enough
sleep,
Jack
tripped
over
the
threshold
of
the
door.
其实意思上都是一样,
不过
(2)
没有明确指出
"Not
enough
sleep"
和
"Tripped
over
the
threshold
of
the
door"
的关系,
而大家可以在内文中意会到
"Not
having
enough
sleep"
和
"tripped
over
the
threshold
of
the
door"
的关系就是
"因为"/"所以"
的关系.
"Using"
是隐含的,
在例句中的
"using"
确有
"by
using"
的意思,
但这不代表
"using"
就一定是
"by
using".
"using"
其实只是把两句子句联起来,
而没有把他们的关系明确指出.
以下有两句例句,
会更明显:
(a)
Using
his
trendy
hair
gel
again,
John
created
yet
another
brilliant
hair
style.
(b)
Using
his
trendy
hair
gel
again,
John
got
punished
by
the
disciplinary
teacher.
两者都是隐含写法,
但根据内文,
明很显的是
在
(a),
John
是透过
"Using
his
trendy
hair
gel
again"
这方法来
"created
yet
another
brilliant
hair
style"
在
(b),
John
是因为
"Using
his
trendy
hair
gel
again"
而导致
"got
punished
by
the
disciplinary
teacher.
,
而不是透过的方法.
所以在这情况下,
(a)
也可以写成:
By
using
his
trendy
hair
gel
again,
John
created
yet
another
brilliant
hair
style.
而
(b)
是:
Because
of
using
his
trendy
hair
gel
again,
John
got
punished
by
the
disciplinary
teacher.
(而不是
"By
using")
总括而言,
"Using"
和
"By
using"
是写作手法上的分别,
隐含意思和明确指出关系的分别,
"Using"
有些时候可以是
"By
using",
但不一定所有情况下也是,
而用
"By
using"
就确定了两子句的关系,
而不是其他的关系.
希望这里的讲解有助大家去理解
