词语用法

1. 注意be resolved有时候属于“助动词+形容词”结构，resolved是不及物动词的过去分词，然后作形容词。

   He was resolved to do it.
   他决定去做。

2. resolve作动词时，后可接that从句，注意从句中用should或虚拟现在式。

   We have resolved that our school should have a dining-room.
   我们决议学校要开个餐厅。

3. resolve同solve的比较：两者都有“解决，解答（一个问题）”的意思。使用resolve时容易引起误导，因它还有其它的意思，而solve只有一个意思。

v. (动词)

1. resolve的基本意思是“决心”“决定”,指某人为了某种目的或信念而决心去做某事,往往强调个人在某个具体工作或行动中所下的决心。引申可表示“解决”,指为某些问题、争论或困难等找到答案并实施。resolve还可表示“分解”“分析”“转变”,其后常接on+名词/动名词、动词不定式或that从句。
2. resolve可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时,接名词、代词、动名词或that从句作宾语,从句中的谓语动词须用虚拟语气。

• An X-ray determined that no bones were broken.经X光测定,没有发生骨折。
