一、基本含义
join 通常表示“加入某个组织、团体、队伍或成为其中一员”。
take part in 则强调“参与某项活动、事件或过程”,侧重于行动上的参与。
二、用法对比
- join:
- join a club / team / party(加入俱乐部/球队/政党)
- join the army(参军)
- join us for dinner(和我们一起吃晚饭)
- take part in:
- take part in a meeting / discussion / competition(参加会议/讨论/比赛)
- take part in volunteer work(参加志愿工作)
- She took part in the school play.(她参加了学校的话剧演出。)
三、常见误区
❌ 错误:I joined the basketball game.
✅ 正确:I took part in the basketball game.
说明:比赛是“活动”,不是“组织”,所以用 take part in 更合适。
❌ 错误:He took part in the Communist Party.
✅ 正确:He joined the Communist Party.
说明:政党是“组织”,应使用 join。
四、小结
记住一个简单规则:
- 加入“人”或“组织” → 用 join
- 参加“活动”或“事件” → 用 take part in
