用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. seek的基本意思是“寻找”“寻求”“谋求”“设法得到”,指怀有很大希望,付出很大努力去寻求某人或某物,也可指对崇高目的或抽象事物的追求、向往或探索。偶尔表示不费吹灰之力的调查。seek还可作“试图”解。
  2. seek用作及物动词时,接名词、代词或动词不定式作宾语。用作不及物动词时,其主动形式含有被动意义。
  3. seek用于be to结构时,尽管主语是seek的逻辑宾语,句子也要用主动结构。
  4. seek是书面语,较少用于口语。
v. (动词)
seek, seek for
  • 这两个词(组)的区别是：当表示“寻找”时, seek for含有“更加坚持达到目标的意味”。
    • seek for, seek out
  • 这两个短语的意思都是“寻找”。其区别是：
  • seek for强调找的动作; seek out强调找出的结果。例如:
  • Eby is seeking for his pencil in the drawer.伊比正在抽屉里找他的铅笔。
  • They sought him out among the crowd.他们在人群中找到了他。
    • seek after, seek for
  • 这两个短语都是“寻求,探求”的意思,常可通用。例如:
  • Who are you seeking for〔after〕?你在找谁?
  • 其区别是：
  • seek after比seek for语气更强,且更多用于表示“追求”“探索”等义, seek for则更多用于“寻找具体物品”。例如:
  • We are earnestly seeking after the truth.我们热切地追求真理。
  • He determined to seek for building more suited to their needs.他决心另找一座更适合他们需要的房子。
    • seek, explore, hunt, search
  • 这四个词都有“寻找”“搜索”的意思。其区别在于：第一, hunt和search都是指搜寻具体的人或某一具体事物,而seek则指对崇高目的或抽象事物的追求或向往; explore指对未知事物或新生事物的探索、观察与研究。第二, hunt含有急切的意味,也常指无结果地寻找,而另外三词没有此种意味。例如:
  • A police patrol was organized to search for him.警察巡逻队被组织起来去寻找他。
  • We must explore all the possibilities.我们必须探讨所有的可能性。
  • We are earnestly seeking after the truth.我们在认真地寻找真理。
  • I've hunted high and low for my socks.我到处在找我的短袜。
    • search，seek，comb
  • 这些动词均含有“寻找”之意。
  • search侧重努力和彻底搜寻某人或某地。
  • seek书面用词，使用广。指付出很大努力去寻找某人或某物。
  • comb指像梳头一样进行搜寻，侧重费力和彻底搜查。
