用法讲解
- 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。
- 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。
- appear用作系动词的句子中可插入to sb,在强调时可移至句首。
- 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。
- appear可用于存在句型(There ~s/ ~ed ),相当于不及物动词be。
- 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。
- 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。
-
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。 -
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) -
当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。
- 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。
