"with the help of" 是一个常用的英语介词短语,字面意思是“在……的帮助下”“借助……的帮助”,用来表示完成某件事的辅助力量或条件(即“靠某人/某物的帮助才做成某事”)。
该短语的结构为:with the help of + 名词/代词/名词短语("of" 是介词,后面必须接名词性成分,不能接句子)。
它在句中通常作状语(修饰谓语动词或整个句子),可放在句首或句中,位置灵活。
句首:With the help of my parents, I learned to ride a bike when I was 5.
(在父母的帮助下,我5岁时学会了骑自行车。)
句中:She finished the report with the help of her colleague.
(她在同事的帮助下完成了报告。)
With the help of technology, we can now work from home easily.
(借助科技的帮助,我们现在可以轻松居家办公。)
He solved the math problem with the help of a calculator.
(他用计算器的帮助解决了这道数学题。)
"with the help of sb." 可以简化为更简洁的 "with sb.'s help"(某人的帮助),两者意思完全一致,只是结构不同:
With the help of my teacher = With my teacher's help(在老师的帮助下)
With the help of the internet = With the internet's help(在互联网的帮助下)
"of" 后面必须接名词性成分(不能接从句):
✖ 错误:With the help of that he explained(不能接从句 "that he explained")
✔ 正确:With the help of what he explained(用 "what" 引导名词性从句作宾语)
✔ 正确:With the help of his explanation(用名词 "explanation" 代替从句)
"with the help of" 是一个表达“借助外力”的实用短语,核心是连接“帮助的来源”(人/物/抽象概念),用来说明完成某事的辅助条件。记住结构和搭配,就能轻松运用啦!
