in spite of 的详细解释
一、核心含义与用法
“in spite of” 是英语中的让步介词短语,表示“尽管”“虽然”,用于连接两个存在矛盾或对立关系的句子成分,强调后文动作/状态不受前文条件的阻碍。其结构为:
in spite of + 名词/代词/动名词
示例:
(尽管下大雨,足球比赛仍继续进行。)
(她克服了所有困难,最终成功了。)
二、语法特征与语义重点
让步关系:
突出“意外性”或“反常结果”,如“尽管有不利条件,结果仍发生”。
In spite of his injury, he finished the marathon.
对比“despite”:
“in spite of” 与 “despite” 含义完全相同,但前者语气更强烈,且需搭配 “of”;“despite” 可直接接名词(无需 “of”)。
Despite the noise (√) / In spite of the noise (√), she concentrated.
不与“although”混淆:
“although” 是连词,需接完整从句(含主语+动词);“in spite of” 仅接名词性成分。
✘ In spite of he was tired → ✔ In spite of his tiredness / ✔ Although he was tired.
三、权威来源与经典用例
文学引用:
狄更斯在《双城记》中写道:
“In spite of all the evidence against him, he remained calm.”
(尽管所有证据都对他不利,他依然保持镇定。)
学术语境:
科学研究中常用于描述反常现象:
“In spite of limited resources, the species adapted rapidly.”
(尽管资源有限,该物种仍快速适应了环境。)
四、常见搭配与易错点
固定搭配:
He laughed in spite of himself. (他不自觉地笑了出来。)
易错提示:
避免混淆 “in spite of” 与 “regardless of”(后者强调“不考虑”,无让步含义):
✘ In spite of the cost, we will buy it. (尽管贵,我们仍要买 → 强调“贵但坚持买”)
✔ Regardless of the cost, we will buy it. (不计代价我们都要买 → 强调“不考虑价格”)
权威参考来源
"in spite" 是一个固定短语,通常与介词"of"连用构成in spite of,表示"尽管、虽然",用于引出让步状语。以下是详细解析:
表示不受某种不利因素影响,仍然坚持做某事,带有主动克服障碍的意味。
例句:
In spite of the heavy rain, they continued the football match.

对比 although/though:
两者意义相同,但结构差异:
❌ 错误:In spite the weather, we had fun.
✅ 正确:In spite of the weather, we had fun.
可用regardless of 或even though 表达类似含义,但语法结构需调整:
in spite of 强调"主动克服困难",需注意固定搭配和介词使用。
