用法辨析
- answer用作动词的基本意思是“回答,答复”,可以用言语回答,也可以用文字回答,还可以用行动回答,视宾语的不同可灵活翻译。
- answer用作及物动词时,可接人、物或that从句作宾语,也可接双宾语(两个宾语都是直接宾语),作“符合,满足”解时宾语主要是need, hope, purpose等抽象名词。
- answer用作不及物动词时主要表示“回答,负责,保证,成功,奏效,适应,符合”。
- answer表示用语言、文字或行动对问题进行回答,是一最常用词; 用于转义表示“符合,适应”等义时,是较正式的用法; answer to the name则是口语用法。
- answer for表示“受责备”时可用于被动结构,表示“许诺,答应别人”时也常用于被动结构,表示其他意思时均常用于一般时态。作“对…负有责任”解时,通常不用于进行体。
- answer用作可数名词时主要表示用口头或书面作出的“回答,答复,答辩”或表示最初不知道而经过思考之后才得出的“答案,解答”。
- answer前一般须有冠词、数词或其他能修饰可数名词的限定词(语),其后可接表示“针对…的”介词短语to sth (to不可换成表示所有关系的of或表示目的的for等介词)。
- know all the answers意为“(自以为)精通一切”。
- answer(to)the letter,answer(to)the question,answer(for)the purpose等常用格式中,习惯将to或for等介词省略掉,但是注意reply to the letter中的to不可以省略;
v. (动词)
n. (名词)
