用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. appear的基本含义有二:一是“出现”“到达”,指出席或在公共场所露面,也指可以看见或变得清晰起来,较少意味着具有确切地具体的背景或出处。引申为“出演”“出版”“面世”。appear作此解时,是不及物动词,其后常有时间、地点等状语。appear的另一个意思是“似乎”“显得”“看起来好像”,含有因视觉误差、观点限制或他人掩饰而得到的印象与事实并不一定相符的味道。appear作此解时,主要用作系动词,也可用作不及物动词。
  2. appear用作系动词,接“to be+ n./adj. ” 或者介词短语、动词不定式或as if/though引导的从句, to be可以省略。当形容词是表语形容词时, to be不可省略。
  3. appear用作系动词的句子中可插入to sb,在强调时可移至句首。
  4. 在以动词不定式或that从句作主语时,一般须以it作形式主语,置于句首,而将该动词不定式或that从句置于appear之后。
  5. appear可用于存在句型(There ~s/ ~ed ),相当于不及物动词be。
  6. appear作为表示状态的动词,通常不用于进行体,而须用于一般时态。
  7. appear是表示感觉的系动词,可用于转移否定结构,即句中的否定虽然出现在主句的谓语部分,但否定范围却不在主句谓语动词本身,而是转移到句子末端的宾语、状语或其他成分上。
  1. appear为不及物动词,

    I have read the article on Japanese economy appeared in yesterday's paper.
    应在appeared前加that/which,否则表述不正确。

  2. appear同seem的比较:appear做连接动词时,常指“事情或事物看其来怎么样”,同seem相似。与seem不同的是,seem既可以用来讨论客观事实,也可以用来描述主观的印象或感觉,而appear只能表达客观事实。

    He appears (to be) very angry today.(句中的to be可省略)
    She appears to have enough money to live on.

    The baby seems/appears (to be) hungry.(两者都可用)
    She doesn't want to go on studying. It seems a pity.(只能用seem)

  3. appear指“出现”或“抵达”时,可被副词修饰。

    She suddenly appeared in the doorway.
    她突然间出现在门口。

v. (动词)
appear, look, seem
  • 这三个词都可用作系动词,表示“看起来”。其区别是:
  • 1.在含义上, appear 强调外表上给人的某种印象,有时含实质上并非如此的意思; look意味着看上去如此,实际亦是如此; seem 则暗示判断有一定根据,这种判断往往接近事实。例如:
  • He appears to be very young.
  • 他看上去很年轻。(实际上不一定如此)
  • He looks to be very young.
  • 他看上去很年轻。(实际上也年轻)
  • He seems to be very young.
  • 他看上去很年轻。(可能他的确很年轻)
  • 2.在用法上,这三个词都可跟形容词或“to be+形容词或名词”结构,也可用于It appears〔appeared〕/looks〔looked〕/seems〔seemed〕 as if...结构。但是, appear 和seem跟to- v 时仍表示“看起来”,而look 接to- v 则是“盼望”的意思。例如:
  • He appears〔seems〕 to know it.
  • 他看来知道这件事。
  • He looks to hear from you.
  • 他期待你来信。
  • 另外, appear 和seem可用于It appears〔appeared〕/seems〔seemed〕 that...结构,而look不能。例如:
  • 我看他似乎很喜欢看这部小说。
  • [误] It looks to me that he enjoys read- ing the novel.
  • [正] It appears〔seems〕 to me that he enjoys reading the novel.
  • 还有, appear 和seem一般不用于进行体; 而look可用现在进行时,这和一般现在时所表示的意思无多大区别。例如:
  • You are looking〔look〕 very unhappy.你看起来很不高兴。
  • appear, emerge, loom
  • 这三个词的共同意思是“出现”,其区别是:
  • appear强调的是公开露面; emerge指从某个掩蔽处出现或摆脱遮挡物而被看见,强调“缓缓出现”; loom则强调眼前出现的物体好像从云雾中发出,无明显轮廓,即“朦胧出现”。
  • appear,emerge,show,loom
  • 这些动词均有“出现”之意。
  • appear强调公开露面,被看见。
  • emerge侧重缓缓出现的过程。
  • show语气较强,强调“露出来”。
  • loom指朦胧出现,好像从雾中浮现出来一样。
  • appear,look,seem
  • 这些动词均有“看起来,好像是”之意。
  • appear指从感观印象看似乎是如此,但有时着重指因视野、观点限制而产生的歪曲印象。
  • look指从样子看起来,侧重通过视觉而建立的印象。
  • seem多指从主观印象或个反应得出的看法。
  • 常见错误

    v. (动词)
      到处可以听到对物价高涨的怨言。

      Complaints about soaring prices appeared everywhere.

      Complaints about soaring prices could be heard everywhere.

      appear指能被看到的,而complaint只用于“能被听到”,不表示 “能被看到”。

      他今天看上去很生气。

      He appeared very angrily today.

      He appeared very angry today.

      appear用作系动词时,只能与形容词连用,不能与副词连用。

      他常常是不速之客,而且来了坐下就吃。

      He often appeared unexpected and invited himself to lunch.

      He often appeared unexpectedly and invited himself to lunch.

      appear作“出现”解时,是不及物动词,不能与形容词连用。

      他显得很伤心。

      He is appearing very sad.

      He appears very sad.

      appear不能用于进行体,可用一般现在时表示目前的状况。

      在他眼前展现出一派秋收大忙的景象。

      There a busy scene of autumn harvesting appeared before his eyes.

      There appeared before his eyes a busy scene of autumn harvesting.

      appear用于存在句型时,相当于be,需置于引导词there之后,主语之前,构成主谓倒装。
