continue 字面意思为“持续”或“继续”。它意味着在某个动作、状态或过程不停止地进行下去。continue 源自拉丁语 continuare，其中 continuus 意为“连续的”，con- 是一个前缀，意为“共同、一起”，而 tinuare 来自 tenere，意为“保持、持有”。因此，continue 可以理解为“保持在一起”。continue 首次在英语中使用可追溯到14世纪，用于表示持续某种状态或行为。它在文学作品中常用于描述不间断的动作或状态。正式与非正式语境：
特殊场合：
I will continue my studies until I earn my degree.
（我会继续我的学*，直到获得学位。）
Please continue with your presentation.
（请继续你的演讲。）
They decided to continue the project despite the challenges.
（他们决定尽管面临挑战，仍然继续这个项目。）
The concert will continue rain or shine.
（音乐会无论晴雨都将继续进行。）
If you continue to work hard, you will succeed.
（如果你继续努力工作，你就会成功。）
同义词：
persist（坚持）：侧重于在困难或阻力中继续。prolong（延长）：强调时间上的延续。反义词：
stop（停止）：指完全中断某个动作或状态。cease（停止）：通常用于正式语境，表示结束某种行为。continue 的音标为 /kənˈtɪn.juː/。可以通过重复发音来增强记忆。continu-（持续）和前缀 con-（共同），帮助理解其意义。continue on（继续进行）continue doing（继续做某事）continue to（继续去做某事）continue with（继续进行某事）通过以上的分析和例子，学*者可以更全面地理解并记住“continue”这个单词的用法和含义。
