advance 和 advanced 兩個字都可當形容詞用, 但意思不同
advance 是 ”事先的” 所以在多益中提到 advance payment(s) 是指預付款項
但是 advanced 是 ”先進的” 所以 ”先進科技” 是 advanced technology
另外, advance 這個字當然也可以當作名詞
在片語 in advance (事先) 中, 它就是名詞
advance 也有 ”進展; 進步” 之意
比如: There have been major advances in computer technology in the past decade.
它還可以當 ”預支款項”
比如: My new assistant asked for a 5,000-dollar advance.
I asked my boss for an advance on next month’s salary.
另外還有個片語是 make advances to/on/toward 人 (注意 advances 必須用複數)
意思是 ”向...求歡”
是指想和某人發生性關係所主動做的一些行為
比如男生在酒吧裡和女生搭訕或藉故觸摸等
例句: Steve is accused of making advances on his new secretary.
