用法讲解

adj. (形容词)
  1. anxious是与anxiety同根的形容词,其含义与anxiety相同。
  2. anxious表示“忧虑的,担心”时,可用作定语和表语; 用作表语时,其后多接介词 about , at或for,有时可跟状语从句,还可跟that从句。
  3. anxious表示“急于,渴望”时,只用作表语,其后多接动词不定式(或其复合结构)、介词短语或that从句。
  4. anxious后接的that从句中,谓语部分要用虚拟式“should+动词原形”,美式英语中有时可省去should,表示说话时本该实现却还未实现的愿望。
  5. anxious之前常可用very修饰,但在其比较级more anxious之前则只能用加强比较语气的much,而不能用very。
  1. anxious后接about或concerning时,指“忧虑的”。

    I am anxious about/concerning your health.
    我很担心你的健康。

  2. anxious后面接for或不定式时,指“急切的”。

    I am anxious for your safety.

  3. 意为“急切的”时,anxious后接的that从句里应用shall或should或虚拟现在式。

    I am anxious that he shall/should avoid the mistake.
    I am anxious that he avoid the mistake.

  4. anxious后可接for和宾语和不定式。

    I am anxious for him to try his best。

adj. (形容词)
be anxious about, be anxious for, be anxious at
  • 1.这三个短语中, be anxious about和be anxious for两个短语较易混淆,其实他们的含义和用法都是不同的:be anxious about 表示的是“担心”的“内容”,而be anxious for表示的却是“渴望(得到)”的“目标”,试比较下面两个句子:
  • I am anxious about him.
  • 我为他担心。
  • I am anxious for him.
  • 我等着他。
  • 有时宾语既是“担心”的“内容”,又是“渴望”(得到)的“目标”,则此时about和for可以通用。例如:
  • We were anxious about 〔for〕 her safety.我们盼望她平安无事。
  • 从用法上说, anxious about后可接sth 也可接sb,而anxious for后一般只接sth,很少接sb。
  • 2.be anxious at的意思是“因…而忧虑”, at的宾语是引起忧虑的“刺激源”,例如:
  • He was anxious at her absence.她的缺席使他忧虑不安。
  • anxious, eager
  • 这两个词都可表示“担心”“焦急”,其区别是:
  • anxious着重消极的“担心”或“焦急”, eager着重积极的“对成功的期望”“急于”或“进取的热情”,带有更多的焦虑情绪。例如:
  • The doctors are anxious about his health.医生们都担心他的健康状况。
  • He is eager about his studies.他对学习很热心。
  • 下面两个句子的含义是一样的:
  • He was very anxious that help should be sent promptly.
  • He was very anxious for help to be sent.
  • 他渴望立即派人去救助。
  • anxious,eager,keen
  • 这些形容词均有“急切的,渴望的”之意。
  • anxious强调因忧虑、关注或害怕而产生的急切心情。
  • eager侧重于急于成功的迫切心情。
  • keen强调因兴趣强烈或欲望而急于做某事。
  • 常见错误

    adj. (形容词)
      我们急切地想知道他是否已安全地到达。

      We were anxious for knowing whether he had arrived safely.

      We were anxious to know whether he had arrived safely.

      be anxious for后通常接名词或代词,不接动名词。

    词源解说

    • ☆ 17世纪20年代进入英语,直接源自拉丁语的anxius,意为焦急的。
