用法說明
How is "Rescue" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Rescue"?
rescue someone from doing vs rescue someone to do
- rescue someone from doing 表示「將某人從（正在進行的）某個行為或困境中解救出來」。介系詞
from後面接動名詞 (V-ing)，強調脫離一個負面或危險的狀況。 - rescue someone to do 則表示「解救某人，以便讓他去做某事」。這裡的
to是不定詞符號，引導後續的目的或意圖，結構為rescue + 受詞 + to + 原形動詞。 - 兩者的核心差異在於
from表示「脫離」，而to表示「目的」。 EN: The lifeguard rescued the child from drowning. 翻譯: 救生員將孩子從溺水中救了出來。
EN:The special forces rescued the hostages to bring them to safety.
翻譯:特種部隊解救了人質，以便將他們帶到安全地點。
總結建議
使用 rescue someone from doing 來描述使人脫離某個正在發生的負面行動，而 rescue someone to do 則用於表達解救後的目的或意圖。
易混淆對比
What is the difference between "Rescue" and similar words?How to choose "Rescue" vs alternatives?

「rescue」通常指從立即、具體的危險（如災難、綁架）中解救，強調行動的緊迫性與危險性；「save」則含義更廣，可指從危險、損失、麻煩中拯救，也可指節省、保留，不一定涉及人身危險。

rescue vs recover
「rescue」指拯救處於危險中的人或動物；「recover」指找回丟失或受損的物品，或指（人）從疾病、衝擊中恢復健康。
口語用法

引述
在轉述他人的話或想法時，常用來表示「去救」或「救了」的動作。 EN: He was like, "We need to rescue the cat from that tree now!" 翻譯: 他當時就說：「我們現在得去救那隻貓，牠在樹上下不來了！」

EN:We barely rescued the situation by apologizing immediately.

停頓填充
在思考或描述過程時，用來填充短暫停頓，帶有「設法解決」、「挽回」的意味。 EN: So the plan was failing, but then... we tried to rescue it by changing the strategy. 翻譯: 所以計畫當時快失敗了，但後來...我們試著改變策略來挽救它。
EN:My whole presentation got messed up, and I was just... trying to rescue what I could.

正式寫作注意：在正式或學術寫作中，應避免使用上述口語化的引述結構（如 He was like...）或填充停頓（如 ...）。建議使用更精確的動詞（如 save, retrieve, salvage）或完整句子來描述救援行動。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Rescue"?Which "Rescue" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×They rescued the cat from the tree.
✓They rescued the cat from the tree.
雖然這個句子本身文法正確，但學習者常誤用 'rescue' 來描述日常、非緊急的幫助情境。從樹上救貓通常用 'get the cat down from the tree' 更自然。'Rescue' 用於更嚴重、有生命危險或緊急的狀況。
×She rescued him to solve the math problem.
✓She helped him (to) solve the math problem.
'Rescue' 不能用於解決一般問題或困難。它特指從危險、囚禁或災難中解救出來。應用 'help', 'assist', 或 'save (time/trouble)' 等詞。
×We need to rescue the environment.
✓We need to save/protect the environment.
'Rescue' 的對象通常是具體的人、動物或可立即從危險中移開的物體。對於抽象概念（如環境、經濟）或長期的保護行動，應使用 'save', 'protect', 'conserve'。
×He was rescued by the police.
✓He was rescued by the police.
此句文法正確，但學習者常忽略被動語態中 'by' 的用法，誤寫成 'He was rescued from the police.'，這會完全改變意思（從警察手中被救出）。正確應使用 'by' 引出施救者，用 'from' 引出危險來源或地點。
×I rescued my friend at the airport yesterday.
✓I picked up my friend at the airport yesterday.
'Rescue' 不適用於常規的接送，如去機場接人。這會顯得很誇張。應用 'pick up', 'meet', 或 'greet'。
×This medicine can rescue your headache.
✓This medicine can relieve/cure your headache.
'Rescue' 不用於治療疾病或緩解症狀。在醫療情境中，'rescue medication/therapy' 是專業術語，指在其他治療失敗後使用的補救療法。對於一般緩解症狀，應用 'relieve', 'ease', 'cure', 或 'treat'。
