1. 一般只用作及物动词,其宾语可以是“实现”的目标、目的等,也可以是“取得”的胜利、成功、名誉、地位等:
Everybody should be given the chance to achieve their aims. 要让每个人都有机会实现自己的目标。
She achieved no success. 她有没获得成功。
偶尔用作不及物动词 (表示“获得成功”或“如愿以偿”),但很少见:

2. 有时与 this, that, what, all, much, anything, nothing, a little 等代词连用,表示“获得 (成功)”或“取得 (成就)”等:
No one can achieve anything without effort. 谁也不可能不努力而有所作为。
All this cannot be achieved overnight. 这一切不是朝夕之间可做到的。
I’ve achieved only half of what I hoped to do. 我只完成了我原想完成的一半。
3. 因 achieve 一般与令人愉快的事 (如:成功、成就等)连用,所以不要受汉语的影响滥用此词表示一般意义的“达到”:误:He will achieve the age of 25 next month.
误:The car achieved a speed of 150 mph.
4. 派生词 achievement n. 成就,业绩 (可数);实现,达到,成功 (不可数):
He was rewarded by the Government for his scientific achievements. 他因在科学上取得的成就受到政府的奖励。
We felt a great sense of achievement when we reached the top of the mountain. 当我们到达山顶时,我们感到有一种巨大的成功感。
