为了进一步探讨这个问题,我们观察一下 aim 的用法:

一、aim to do sth:主语“人或物”均可。

We aim to increase sales by 10 per cent

我们的目标是将销售额提高10%

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

The Oxford Chemistry Primers aim to cover important topics in organic chemistry.  《牛津化学初级读本》丛书旨在论述有机化学中的重要问题。

来自柯林斯例句

二、aim at:主语“人或物”均可。

They aim at quality rather than quantity.

他们的目的在于提高质量而不是增加数量。

《汉英大词典》

Education aims at removing fetters from the mind.

教育的目的在于解除思想的枷锁。

《汉英大词典》

三、be aimed at:主语只能是“物”,因为我们不能用“人”当作工具去瞄准。

Their latest product is aimed at the mass market.

他们的最新产品瞄准了大众市场。

《牛津词典》

His music is commercial. It is aimed at the masses.

他的音乐很商业化,针对的是一般大众。

《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》

四、sth. aims at... sth. is aimed at .... 的区别:

以下两组句子,主动、被动都可以说:

Education aims at removing fetters from the mind.

Education is aimed at removing fetters from the mind.

 

Their latest product aims at the mass market.

Their latest product is aimed at the mass market.

很难说出主动和被动的区别。如果有的话,被动式强调人为的意识。

 

五、非谓语动词形式的选择:“物”作逻辑主语时,一般用aimed at,很少用aiming at

我查阅了多部词典,都是aimed at...,没有查到aiming at...。例如:

It was a new production technique aimed at minimizing wastage.

这是一项旨在使损耗减至最低的新生产技术。

《牛津词典》

Talks aimed at producing a new world trade treaty have been under way for six years.

旨在制定出一个新的世界贸易条约的谈判已经进行了6年。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

The government rushed through legislation aimed at Mafia leaders

政府匆忙通过了针对黑手党首领的立法。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

Teachers have joined a strike aimed at forcing the government to pay overdue salaries and allowances.

教师加入了旨在迫使政府支付拖欠薪水和津贴的罢工。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

Advertising aimed at children should be curbed.

针对儿童的广告应受到限制。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

This is the latest round of job cuts aimed at making the company more competitive

这是旨在增强公司竞争力的新一轮裁员。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

The latest talks aimed at ending the civil war appear to be heading for deadlock

为结束内战而进行的最新谈判好像要陷入僵局。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

Anne chose an upmarket agency aimed at professional people.

安妮选择了一家以专业人士为服务对象的高端代理商。

《柯林斯高阶英汉双解学习词典》

A range of policies have been introduced aimed at curbing inflation.

为了抑制通货膨胀实施了一系列的政策。

《牛津词典》

 

六、aim at 的这个用法,跟fixed on fixing on的用法十分相似。

fix 表示“眼睛专注”意义时,可以是“及物动词”,也可以是“不及物动词”。就是说,当“眼睛作主语”时,主动被动都可以:

One’s eyes fix on something.

One’s eyes are fixed on something. (主动式:fix one’s eyes on something

以下是《柯林斯词典》的注释:

If you fix your eyes on someone or something or if your eyes fix on them, you look at them with complete attention.

例句:

1. She fixes her steel-blue eyes on an unsuspecting local official.

她那灰蓝色的眼睛紧盯着一个毫无戒心的地方官员。

2. Her soft brown eyes fixed on Kelly.

她那双温柔的棕色眼睛紧盯着凯利。

3. The singers kept their eyes fixing on the conductor.

歌唱演员们目不转睛地望着指挥。

4. My eyes fixed on a distant light.

我注视着远处的灯光。

虽然可以说One’s eyes fix on something. 但很少见到fixing on... 的例句,都是fixed on...
