完成用英语怎么说呢（End 还是 finish?）

我们用end 和 finish 在类似的场合中, 意思是‘come to a stop’:

I think that his contract ends this month.

我想他的合同这个月到期。

What time does the film finish?

电影什么时候结束?

我们用finish来表示我们完成了正在做的事情。它强调该过程在特定时间内停止。End通常不会在这些例子中使用:

He finished his meal in just three minutes.

他只用了三分钟就把饭吃完了。

If we had the right tools, we could finish the job by Friday this week.

如果我们有合适的工具，我们可以在本周星期五之前完成这项工作。

Her brother finished last in the race.

她哥哥在赛跑中最后一名。

We use end to say that stopping something is significant, and has a clear conclusion or shape. Finish wouldn’t normally be used in these examples:

我们用end来表示停止某事是重要的，并且有明确的结论或形式。Finish通常不会在这些例子中使用:

The course of the river ended in a delightful harbour with small sailing boats everywhere.

这条河的终点是一个令人愉快的港口，到处都是小帆船。

Many historians agree that the medieval period in Europe ended in the mid-sixteenth century.

许多历史学家认为欧洲的中世纪结束于16世纪中期。

如果end 以 -ed 结尾通常是过去时。

Finish 可以解动名词-ing 的形式,但不能接动词不定式:

They’ve finished playing those computer games.

Not: They’ve finished to play …

I haven’t finished drying my hair yet.

Not: I haven’t finished to dry …

End 即不能接动名词也不能接动词不定式。

Call me when you’ve finished writing the report.

Not: Call me when you’ve ended writing …
