英语短语"manage to do"的核心含义是“成功做成(某事);设法完成(某事)”,强调经过努力、克服困难后最终实现目标(区别于“尝试做但没成功”)。
侧重“结果成功”——不仅“尝试了”,而且“做到了”。
例如:
I managed to catch the last bus.(我成功赶上了末班车。)
She managed to solve the problem by herself.(她设法自己解决了问题。)
通常是人(或有行动能力的主体),表示“某人成功做某事”。
肯定式:主语 + manage to do sth.
否定式:主语 + don’t/doesn’t/didn’t + manage to do sth.(没做成某事)
疑问式:Do/Does/Did + 主语 + manage to do sth.?(是否做成某事?)
过去时:managed to do(过去成功做)
例:He managed to get the job last year.(他去年成功得到了那份工作。)
现在完成时:have/has managed to do(到目前为止成功做)
例:We have managed to reduce costs by 20%.(我们成功把成本降低了20%。)
try to do:尝试做(不一定成功)
例:I tried to climb the mountain, but I gave up.(我尝试爬山,但放弃了。)
manage to do:尝试并成功(强调结果)
例:I managed to climb the mountain despite the bad weather.(尽管天气差,我还是成功爬上了山。)
用于描述克服困难、解决问题后的成功,常搭配表示“困难”的状语(如despite, although, in spite of等):
Despite being tired, she managed to finish her homework.(尽管累,她还是做完了作业。)
They managed to escape from the burning building.(他们成功从着火的大楼里逃了出来。)
"manage to do" = 成功做某事(= succeed in doing sth.,但更口语化)。
记住:有努力,有结果!
