hurry doing vs hurry to do
- hurry doing 通常用於描述「匆忙地完成某個正在進行的動作」，強調在進行該動作時的倉促狀態。
- hurry to do 則強調「急忙地開始或去做某件事」，焦點在於迅速採取行動以達成某個目的。
- 在否定句或疑問句中，兩者有時可互換，但細微語感上 hurry to do 更側重「意圖」與「目的」。
- would hurry to + V 常用於假設或禮貌性建議，表示「（在特定情況下）會趕緊去做…」。 EN: She hurried finishing her report before the meeting. 翻譯: 她趕在會議前匆忙寫完了報告。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Hurry"?Which "Hurry" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I hurry to go to the station.
✓I'm in a hurry to get to the station. / I have to hurry to the station.
「hurry」作為動詞時，通常不直接接不定詞「to go」。常用「hurry to + 地點」或使用名詞片語「in a hurry」。
×Don't hurry up.
✓Don't hurry. / There's no need to hurry.
「hurry up」是催促他人的片語，命令句為「Hurry up!」。但勸阻別人「不要急」時，通常用「Don't hurry」或「There's no need to hurry」，而非「Don't hurry up」。
×He hurried finishing his homework.
✓He hurried to finish his homework.
動詞「hurry」後接另一個動作時，應使用「hurry to + 動詞原形」，表示「急忙去做某事」，而非接動名詞（V-ing）。
×I need to hurry my work.
✓I need to hurry with my work. / I need to hurry to finish my work.
「hurry」作為及物動詞時，賓語通常是人（hurry someone），意為「催促某人」。若要表達「急忙做某項工作」，應使用「hurry with + 名詞」或「hurry to + 動詞」的結構。
×We must hurry, otherwise we will miss the flight.
✓We must hurry, or we will miss the flight.
雖然「otherwise」在中文常對應「否則」，但在英文中，與「hurry」等動詞連用的直接口語或書面警告，更常使用連接詞「or」。使用「otherwise」會讓句子聽起來較不自然或過於正式。
×He is always in hurry.
✓He is always in a hurry.
固定片語「in a hurry」中的不定冠詞「a」不可省略。這是學習者常犯的冠詞錯誤。
