resign和re-sign 基本相似,但是意思完全不一样

resign 和 re-sign 基本相似,但是意思完全不一样,给听力造成很大的困恼,其实细看一下它们还是很好区分的。

一、resign 的音标是 [rɪˈzaɪn],记得是“z”,不是“s”,译为“辞职,辞去(某职务)”,常用的格式有:resign from sth 或 resign as sth,例如:

He resigned as manager after eight years.

八年后,他辞去了经理的职务。

Two members resigned from the board in protest.

董事会的两名成员辞职以示抗议。

My father resigned his directorship last year.

我父亲去年辞去了董事的职务。

解析:若在表示时间的短语中含有 last 或 next,那么其前不用介词 at,in 或 on.

resign 对应的一个短语动词 resign yourself to sth,译为”听任;只好接受;顺从“,此时的 to 是介词,后面跟名词或动名词,例如:

She resigned herself to her fate.

她只好听天由命了。

We had to resign ourselves to making a loss on the sale.

我们只好接受销售造成的亏损。

You might as well resign yourself to being a poor poet.

你干脆去当个穷诗人算了。

解析:在做一件事没有更好的选择又没有理由不做的时候,我们可以使用 might as well 和 may as well 来表达最容易或是最符合逻辑的行动。它们都是非正式的表建议的说法,might as well 更为普遍。

二、re-sign 的音标是 [reɪ saɪn] 中间有横杆,译为”重签,重新签名“,通常指再次签署合同,例如:

I re-sign my current jobbecauseI love it.

我重新签了我现在的工作,因为我喜欢这份工作。

Milan chief executive Adriano Galliani was overjoyed to re-sign Shevchenko.

米兰首席执行官阿德里亚诺加利亚尼对于签下舍甫琴科感到非常高兴。

The full-back's refusal to re-sign cost the club its best player and forced the manager to resign.

这位后卫拒绝续约,使俱乐部失去了最好的球员,迫使经理辞职。
