v.动词
afford, give, provide, supply这四个词都有“给”“供给”“提供”的意思。其区别是： 1.afford指为一定的目的而“给”“提供”所需要的东西; give指无需偿还地把金钱、物品、时间、麻烦等有形或无形的东西“送给”“授予”“供给”某人; provide主要指为某人、某物或某事“提供”“供应”某物品,尤指生活必需品; supply指用物“供给”“供应”或“提供”给国家、群众、工厂、城市、市场等,以部队为对象时,往往只供给生活必需品,而不指武器。例如: Some trees afford resin. 有些树产树脂。 I should like to give him a chance.我想给他一个机会。
Now we supply power to nine-tenths of the city's homes.现在我们向这个城市十分之九的家庭提供电力。2.afford后面可跟不定式或动名词,还常用在can, could, be able to后面表示“担负得起”某事物的费用、损失、后果等,以及“抽得出”时间、人力,其后可接双宾语,意思是“向某人提供某物”; provide后面可接for, with和against等介词; supply后可接介词to。例如: Our garden affords us fresh vegetables.我们的园子为我们提供新鲜蔬菜。
More and more vegetables and fruit are supplied to the army.越来越多的蔬菜和水果供应部队。
The programme aims to provide self-sufficiency for local needs.这项计划旨在使当地需要得以自足。afford, giveafford和give都有“提供”的意思,很多情况下可以互换,但当主语是人时须用give,特别在口语中。例如： I should like to give him a chance.我想给他一个机会。
It afforded me an opportunity.这给了我一个机会。afford, buyafford和buy都有“买”的意思,但afford侧重“有无经济能力买”,而buy则侧重“购买的行为”,表示“我买不起”可以说I can't afford,但不可说I can't buy.因为后者的意思是“即使有钱也不准买”。另外, buy常可用在afford后作宾语。来源于古英语geforthian完成,其前缀ge-意义为“行动完成”,后半部forthian意义为“进一步”;“完成”geforthian意味着“有能力做”而最终变为“有足够的钱做”;前缀ge-在中古英语时期变为i-iforthian,受来源于拉丁语的含前缀aff-的英语词汇的影响,前缀i-又演变为af-;到16世纪,后半部forthian尾部th最终被d代替。

v.动词
afford的基本含义是“充足”,指“有足够的钱买某物”“有足够的财力或时间做某事”,也可以表示“经受得起”; 引申可表示“提供”“给予”。 afford表示“有足够的钱买某物”时, afford可以接物作宾语,也可以接“to buy sth ”作宾语,前者可看作是省略to buy的句型,前者较后者更常用些。 afford表示“有足够的财力或时间做某事”。afford的宾语可以是time一般不省略,也可以是expense,还可以是time and money,但一般不单独用money。 afford还可作“经受得起”解,可用于财政状况,健康状况或者形象、声誉等,其宾语一般为动词不定式或表示动作的名词,不接反身代词作宾语。 afford作“提供”“给予”解时,属正式文体,指自然产生或法律上的后果,多接双宾语,其后的直接宾语多为抽象名词。其主语可以是人,也可以是物或事物,其间接宾语可转化为介词to的宾语。 afford多用于疑问句或否定句,常与can, could, be able to等连用。用于否定句时,意思是“经不起发生某事或做某事”,含尽力“避免发生”或“避免做”的意味。 afford不用于进行体和完成体,作“买得起,花得起,经得起”解时不用于被动结构。 afford指“给予”时，可接双宾语。 It affords me great satisfaction to be able to help him.能帮助他给了我很大的满足感。can afford to …指“负担得起”，“做得到”，“忍得住”。He can afford to keep a motorcar.他负担得起备有一辆汽车。She can hardly afford to wait for another hour.她几乎做不到再多等一小时了。 I did not think I could afford to lose my post.我想我不能忍受得了失去这个职位。
