avoid的用法

1. 表示“避免”“回避”“躲避”，本身为及物动词，后接宾语不要想当然误加介词，如：

我想她是在躲着我。

正：I think she is avoiding me.

误：I think she is avoiding from me.

2. 后接动词时要用动名词，不能用不定式。如：

You should avoid mentioning his divorce. 你要避免提及他离婚的事。

He dyed his beard to avoid being recognized. 他染了胡子，以免我们认出他。

有时动名词前可以有自己的逻辑主语。如：

They built a wall to avoid soil being washed away. 他们建了一堵幸墙防止土壤流失。
