vocabulary简明 You know that red octagonal traffic sign that says STOP? It's telling you to stop moving and to stay put.
vocabulary扩展 You're familiar with stop as a word meaning "quit moving," but the word's original meaning is "to plug up a hole," like when you stop the hole in your bucket with oakum (or napkins). In English, stop came to mean "arrest" for any kind of movement. Stop crime! Stop that check! Stop that thief! Stop writing commands with stop! A stop can also be a place to rest, and the period at the end of this sentence is a "full stop."

Usage Note :

When an action comes to an end or stops, you can say that someone stops doing it. She stopped reading and closed the book. However, if you say that someone stops to do something, you mean that they interrupt their movement or another activity in order to do that thing. The 'to' infinitive indicates purpose. I stopped to read the notices on the bulletin board.

stops doing 表示停止做某事,如:She stopped reading and closed the book (她停止阅读,合上了书)。而 stops to do 则表示中断现在的行动或活动去做另一件事,to 引导的不定式表示目的,如:I stopped to read the notices on the bulletin board (我停下来去读布告栏上的通知)。
