Inevitable is much more frequent than unavoidable and has a much wider range of collocates. Unavoidable always describes sth unpleasant, especially delays and consequences. Things that are inevitable are often unpleasant, but do not have to be; collocates include change, comparison, conclusion, development, effect, outcome, part, product, question, response, result, tendency, conflict, tension and disappointment. * inevitable比unavoidable常用得多,搭配范围也更广。unavoidable总是描述不快之事,尤其是delay和consequence。inevitable常常但并非只能描述不快之事,搭配词有change、comparison、conclusion、development、effect、outcome、part、product、question、response、result、tendency、conflict、 tension和disappointment。■ inescapable / /ˌɪnɪˈskeɪpəbl/ / (of a fact or situation) that you cannot avoid or ignore (现实或状况)不可避免的,逃避不了的,不能忽视的◆It is an inescapable fact that how we eat affects how we feel.我们的饮食方式会影响我们的感受-这是个无法忽视的事实。▸ inescapably adverb ◆Despite its remodelling, the building remains inescapably linked to the past.尽管这座建筑经过翻修,依然不可避免地与过去联系在一起。■ inexorable / /ɪnˈeksərəbl/ / (formal) (of a process) that cannot be stopped or changed; (of logic) that cannot be argued against (过程)不可阻挡的,无法改变的;(逻辑)不容辩驳的◆What is the reason for the inexorable rise in crime?犯罪活动的增多无法阻遏,原因何在?◆This is where the inexorable logic of the theory breaks down.该理论不容辩驳的逻辑在这里瓦解了。▸ inexorably adverb ◆Pressure of population is leading inexorably towards a crisis.人口压力将不可避免地引发一场危机。 |
