“help with” 和 “help to do” 的区别
在英语学习中,很多同学对 “help with” 和 “help to do”(或 “help do”)的用法感到困惑。其实,它们虽然都表示“帮助”,但结构和用法有明显不同。本文将通过清晰的解释和实用例句,帮你彻底掌握两者的区别。
1. “help with + 名词/代词”
表示“在某事上提供帮助”,后面接的是名词或代词,强调帮助的内容或领域。
• Can you help me with my homework?
• She helped us with the project.
• I need help with this problem.
2. “help (to) do something”
表示“帮助做某事”,后面接的是动词原形。注意:这里的 “to” 可以省略,两种形式都正确且意思相同。
• He helped me (to) fix the car.
• They helped clean the classroom.
• Could you help me (to) carry these boxes?

| 结构 |
含义 |
示例 |
| help with + 名词 |
在……方面帮忙 |
help with cooking |
| help (to) do |

小贴士:“help with” 后面不能直接跟动词,必须用名词形式(如动名词)。
✅ 正确:help with cleaning
❌ 错误:help with clean
4. 实用场景举例
场景一:请求帮助
A: Can you help me with my English?
B: Sure! And I can also help you practice speaking.
场景二:描述他人行为
My brother always helps me (to) study for exams.
He also helps with household chores.
5. 总结
- ✅ help with + 名词 → 帮忙处理某类事情
- ✅ help (to) + 动词原形 → 帮忙执行某个动作
- ✅ “to” 在 help 后可省略,口语中常省略
- ❌ 不要说 “help with do” —— 这是错误结构
