against作“反对”解时,反义词是for。
例如:
(we are all against his idea.我们都反对他的想法。
(im not against job training.我并不反对职业培训。
against用在fight,strive,struggle等词后面,同with意思相同,不过against更强调一种困难中的反抗。
例如:we fight for the weak against the strong.我们为弱者而战,反对强者。
作为介词,against后接的宾语有时可省略。
例如:
(we have saved some money against our old age.我们存了一些钱,以备老年之用。
(our defences must be re*rced against attack.我们必须加强防御设施以抵御进攻。
