in favor of，in favor with的用法区别

　　这一对介词短语形似而神不同，它们不是同义语。具体用法如下：

　　In favour of的意思有三个：“赞成”、“有利于”和“让位”。例：

1. 　　Are you in favour of this new project？你是否赞成这个新计划？
2. 　　I am in favor of stopping work now.我赞成现在停止工作。
3.     The Prime Minister resigned in favour of a better candidate．首相辞职以让位给更合适的人选。

• We are in favor of her promotion to president.我们赞成她升为总裁
• I am all in favor of equal pay for equal work.我完全支持同工同酬。
• There were 247 votes in favour and 152 against.有247票赞成，152票反对。

　　In favour with的意思是“受到…宠爱”或“得到…好评（或重视）”。= be  popular with例：

• The Chief Executive is now in favour with the people．现在行政首长受到市民的爱戴。
• =This dance is popular with young people.这种舞很受青年人喜爱。
• Our plan is not in favour with the authority．兰局并不重视我们的方案。

   这里的相反词为 out of favour.例：

The sycophant is out of favour with his boss．

   由上列数例可看出：

in favour of是表示主动的涵义，即赞成某事或支持某人，对什么有利或让位给谁；

in favour with则表示被动的涵义，即受到或得到某人的好评或重视。
