Command is slightly stronger than order and is the normal word to use about an army officer giving orders, or in any context where it is normal to give orders without any discussion about them. It is less likely to be used about a parent or teacher. * order 含义较 command 宽泛,可指任何有权威的人,如父母、老师或政府下命令。command 的语气稍强于 order,是指部队长官发布命令的常规用词,或者用于没有商量余地的命令。command 不大用于父母或老师下命令的情况。Patternsto order/tell/instruct/direct/command sb to do sthto order/instruct/direct/command that…to do sth as ordered/told/instructed/directed/commanded~sb (in sth )(formal ) to teach sb sth , especially a practical skill 教授,传授(技能等)◆ All our staff have been instructed in sign language . 我们的员工都接受过手语训练。[usually passive ]~sb that… (formal ) to give sb information about sth 告知;通知◆ We have been instructed that a decision will not be made before the end of the week . 我们已获悉周末前不会作出决定。~sb (to do sth )(law法律) to employ sb to represent you in a legal situation , especially as a lawyer 委托(律师);托办 |
