📖 中文释义
adj
-
core 适得其反;起反作用📖 指某种做法本来是为了提供帮助或解决问题,却反而造成更多阻碍、损失或麻烦,因此结果比不采取行动更糟。💡 常用“be counterproductive”表示“适得其反”,也可说“counterproductive to + 目标”。它通常放在系动词后作表语,也可直接修饰行动、政策等名词;不要用它表示单纯的“无效”,因为它强调结果朝相反方向发展。Punishing employees for every small mistake can be counterproductive.因为员工每个小错误都惩罚他们,可能会适得其反。The new rule was intended to improve safety, but it proved counterproductive.这项新规定原本是为了提高安全性,但结果却适得其反。
