-The police had anticipated trouble from the soccer fans and were at the ground in large numbers.I recognize the face but can’t recall her name.-I don’t recall ever meeting her.-She recalled that she had to see the doctor again that afternoon.CF: recall, remember & remind

這三個詞都與“記憶”有關，前兩個詞有時可通用。

recall“想起”，把忘記的東西又想起來了，其動作包含有意識的努力，因此常與 can，could 等詞連用，強調一次的回憶。例如：

-Try as I might, I could not recall where I had left the book.(我怎么也想不起來我把書丟在哪里了。)

-I remember her face but I cannot recall where I met her.(我記得她的臉，但是想不起在什么地方見過她。)

remember “想起”，用處比較廣泛，指事物自然在記憶中出現，不包含努力或意志。例如：If you command wisely, you’ll be obeyed cheerfully.([諺語]指揮有方，人人樂從。)

-He is not fit to command others that cannot command himself.([諺語]不能指揮自己就不能指揮別人。)

NB:

像 suggest, demand 等動詞一樣,跟在 command后面的 that 從句中要用虛擬語氣，謂語用“should+原形動詞”或直接加原形動詞，而不管從句中的人稱或時態。例如：

-He commanded that all the gates(should)be shut.hold back:

1)prevent the expression of(feelings, tears, etc.)

-Johnny cried bitterly in the classroom, not even attempting to hold back the tears.2)make sb.or sth.stop moving forward

-You could become a good musician, but your lack of practice is holding you back.4)keep(sth.)secret

-把事情全告訴我，不要隱瞞任何細節。(Tell me about it — don’t hold anything back.)

avoid: vt.keep or get away from(usu.followed by noun / gerund)

-The little boy who had broken a neighbor’s window ran away to avoid punishment / being punished.-我橫穿馬路以便避開他，但他看到了我并朝我跑過來。(I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me.)

NB: 英語中有些動詞或詞組后面只能跟名詞或動名詞，不能跟不定式，如：avoid，deny，enjoy，escape，finish，mind，miss，postpone，suggest，feel like，give up，put off 等，我們在使用中要特別注意。
