类似问题1:engage in 与be engaged in有啥区别?[英语科目]
engage in 意为"参与,从事",用于肯定语气中,多表达的是"主动地参与"
如 Companies shall engage in business activities within their registered scope of business.(公司应当在登记的经营范围内从事经营活动.)该动词短语一般在使用时与主语之间要加入 "can,will,shall"等辅助词,且多与to连用,构成非谓语动词短语,
如,One of the strangest phenomena of life is to engage in a work that will last long after death.(人生最奇异的现象之一就是,你从事的事业在你死后仍将长久存在.)
be engaged in 意为 "忙于...",与"be busy doing sth."类似.,被迫忙碌的意味.
**engage in 的否定结构是"can/do/does...not be engaged in",这里的be engaged in则取"参与,从事"的意思.
类似问题2:be engaged in用法be engaged in doing sth.可不可以,这短语没学过,看词典例句好像都是加名词,没有加动词的[英语科目]
be engaged in doing sth可以的
eg:the European Central Bank is fully engaged in coping with the debt crisis in Europe.
欧洲中央银行忙于处理欧洲债务危机
类似问题3:engage in在这句话里怎么翻啊?They engage in bargaining to work out wages and conditions of work.engage in在这句话里怎么翻译[英语科目]
engage in + v-ing这是固定的句式,意思是
