同近义词辨析

last, continue

这二者均为持续,

last 只能用主动 The war continued/lasted five years.

continue 主动,被动均可, The story is to be continued.

last, continue, endure, persist

这组词都有“持续”的意思，其区别是：

last着重存在的时间相当长，超过正常的或所期望的时间。

continue多指过程，强调持续而无终止，常含不间断之意。

endure与last同义，但还指经受住，有能耐忍受而并不受损。

persist强调超过了指定的或正常的时间。

resume, succeed, continue, go on

这组词都有“继续”的意思，其区别是：

resume指中断后的继续。

succeed侧重指有规律地连续。

continue普通用词。或指持续而不停止，或有一段中断后又继续下去。

go on 通俗用词，多用于口语中。go on+-ing表暂停后继续做原事，即后继续的内容与原来的内容相同。go on+不定式指做完某事后，接着做不同的另一件事。
