We will continue (with) the payments for another year.我們這樣的報酬還要維持1年.
3.按傳統語法,表示中斷以後再繼續,其後通常只能是story,speech,journey,strike 這樣的名詞,而不能接不定式或動名詞,但現代英語已打破此規則.如:
We continued working [to work] after the break.休息後我們繼續工作.
4.由於可用於及物或不及物動詞,所以有時用主動語態和被動語態意思差不多.如:
The story continues [is continued] in the next issue of the magazine.這個故事在該雜誌的下壹期裏繼續刊載.

He talked about Keats,and continued by reading us a poem.他談了濟慈,接著給我們朗誦了壹首詩.
6.continued on page 15與continued from page 15 所用介詞不同,意思也不同:前者指“下續第15頁”,後者指“上接第15頁”.
7.可用作連系動詞,其後可接形容詞、介詞短語等.如:
