something worth doing should be finished in our lifetime.这里finished为什么要改为completed?
finish,complete作为动词在一起比较时,这两个词的一般含义是“做完”、“完成”,有时可以互换使用.然而,有时它们却有明显的词义差别.
finish表示过去某个时候着手做的事已经做完,或者表示对已经做完的事进行精密加工
As soon as he had finished,Jenny told him she wanted to go home.
他一讲完,珍妮就告诉他说她想回家.
This machine part needs surface finishing.
这个机械零件需要精密加工.
The writer has finished (or completed) the novel.
但是如果作为读者说“我已经看完这部小说了”,用英语说却只能是I have finished the novel.不过,如果你是文学系的学生,老师布置了任务,要读完这部小说,那么又非用complete不可了.
By the end of next year,they will have finished work on the new stadium.
到明年年底,他们将建成这个新体育场.
而complete侧重表示做完或完成某工作,特别是一项任务,或者把某工作圆满结束.如果要用英语表达“这位作家已经写完那部小说了”,这两个词都可以用
The house was completed five moths ago.
这座房子是5个月前竣工的.

他们刚游出危险区,这时快艇又完成了一圈的运动.
注：完成一个圆周的运动,用complete是很准确的.

有几辆车跑完了比赛的全程.
如果只从语法上说，两个都对。
但是，finish多指中性的情况，没有多少感情色彩。
而complete的意思是：make (sth) whole or perfect 使（某事物）圆满、 完善
所以，这里用complete好。
complete更强调完善的意思.
而finish仅仅是做完它而已.
