charge

音標發(fā)音

charge的基本意思是“裝載”“填充”直到滿負荷,由此產(chǎn)生許多新義,如“使充滿”“命令”“使承擔(dān)”“沖鋒”“收費”等,美語中還可表示“控告”。本詞強調(diào)所加的負擔(dān)超出接受能力,故含有勞累、負擔(dān)過重或被壓倒的意味。
charge用作及物動詞時,接名詞或代詞作賓語。作“控告”解時,可以接that引導(dǎo)的從句。作“收費”解時，可以接雙賓語，可用于被動結(jié)構(gòu)；表示“價格貴”或“收費貴”時,不能說charge expensively,而用too much或heavily等修飾。
charge用作不及物動詞時,常接for表示“收…的費”,接down表示“沖鋒”。

charge作“負責(zé),管理”解時,是不可數(shù)名詞; 作“指責(zé),指控,控告”解時,是可數(shù)名詞,且后可接that從句作同位語; 作“收費,要價”解時,主要指因某種服務(wù)而索取的費用,是可數(shù)名詞。
in charge of表示“某人負責(zé)或照管某人〔物〕”; in the charge of則表示“某人〔物〕由某人負責(zé)或照管”。
charge表示控訴時，常表示為charge sb with sth，表示因某事控訴某人，如charge Jack with murder（控訴杰克謀殺）；
accuse也表示控告某人某事，但是與介詞of連用，如accuse Jack of murder；
charge作名詞時，英美人都習(xí)慣在其后接that從句。They brought the charge that Joseph had committed murder.
charge作動詞時，美國人習(xí)慣在其后接that從句，而英國人則不。They charged that Joseph had committed murder.
