英语短语"go wrong"是一个常用的动词短语,核心含义是“出问题、出错、故障、失败”,强调事物从“正常状态”向“异常/糟糕状态”的变化过程(区别于静态的“be wrong”)。
表示原本预期的状态或结果未能实现,可用于描述:
1、 物体/设备:发生故障、损坏;
2、 计划/行动:失败、泡汤;
3、 情况/事件:变糟、失控;
4、 人(较少见):状态失常、犯错误。
"go wrong"是不及物短语(不直接接宾语),但可通过介词短语补充说明“什么出问题”(常用"with"引出对象)。以下是常见结构:
直接说明“某事物出问题”,主语通常是无生命名词(如计划、机器、情况等)。
The plan went wrong because of bad weather.(计划因为坏天气泡汤了。)
My phone keeps going wrong—maybe I need a new one.(我的手机总出故障——可能得换个新的了。)
Everything went wrong on my birthday: I missed the bus, lost my wallet, and the cake burned.(我生日那天全乱了:错过公交、丢了钱包,蛋糕还烤糊了。)
用"with"引出出问题的具体对象,表示“某人/某物出问题”。
What's gone wrong with the TV? It won't turn on.(电视怎么了?开不了机。)
Did something go wrong with your project? You look upset.(你的项目出问题了吗?你看起来很沮丧。)
Is there anything wrong with you? You're acting strange today.(你没事吧?今天举止有点奇怪。)(注:此句中"go wrong with sb"较少用,更常见"be wrong with sb",但"go wrong"可强调“从正常到异常的变化”。)
When things go wrong...(当事情出问题时……)——用于引出应对问题的建议。
Example: When things go wrong, try to stay calm and find a solution.(当事情出问题时,试着保持冷静并寻找解决办法。)
Something goes wrong...(某事出问题……)——口语中常用,表意外。
Example: Oops, something went wrong with the printer—can you fix it?(哎呀,打印机出问题了——你能修吗?)
Go badly wrong(严重出问题)——强调程度。
Example: The experiment went badly wrong and we had to start over.(实验严重失败,我们得重新来。)
"go"是不规则动词,需注意时态:
一般现在时:go wrong(主语三单时用goes wrong)
Example: This old laptop often goes wrong.(这台旧笔记本经常出故障。)
一般过去时:went wrong
Example: The party went wrong when the music system broke.(音响坏了,派对变糟了。)
现在完成时:has/have gone wrong
Example: My bike has gone wrong—can you help me fix it?(我的自行车坏了——你能帮我修吗?)
go wrong:强调变化过程(从“正常”到“异常”);
be wrong:强调静态状态(本身就是错误/异常的)。
Example:
The answer is wrong(答案是错的)——状态描述;
The calculation went wrong(计算出错了)——从“正确计算”到“错误结果”的变化。
