解析:“help”可以是及物动词,也可以是不及物动词。“help”作不及物动词有“顶事”、“管用”、“有益”的意思,可以替换be useful等,是《经济学人》中超高频的用法。这个词可以用在表达解决方案的时候使用。
例1:怎样解决城市交通拥堵的问题呢?一个办法是提高停车费
Higher parking fee would help(停车费 higher parking charges)
例2:怎样能够让女性在职场中受到鼓舞呢?解决方案是出现更多的女性榜样。
More woman role models would help
例3:虽然说覆水难收,但道歉还是有非常积极的意义。
An apology cannot undo the wrong done, but it helps.(覆水难收 cannot undo the wrong done)
