“appear作‘似乎’解时,它在否定句中不是处于否定地位。
例:看来我是不能找到书了。
( 1 )I don’t appear to be able to find my book. (误)
(2) I appear to be unable to find my book. (正)
I don’t appear的用法果真是错误的吗?
[答] 如同seem 一样,appear也有两种否定形式:don’t appear (在非正式语体中更为常用)和appear not。
1.I don’t appear to have written his name.
好像我没有写下他的名字。
2. . . but this did not appear to have caused the fire.
但看来并不是燃料引起火灾的。
3. She didn’t appear to hear, and was certainly quite cheerful.
她好像没有听见,肯定相当高兴。
4.She appeared not to know what was happening.
她似乎不知道正在发生的事情。
故《学生英语疑难解析词典》中所谓的误句其实也是正确的。NCE2中的那个句子也可以写作:Babies of two months old appear not to be reluctant to enter the water.
[译文]两个月的婴儿似乎并非不愿意入水。
[问] It is not long before they are so accustomed to swimming that they can pick up weights from the floor of the pool.
请解释be accustomed to的用法。
[答] 实际上,be accustomed除了常常接to +名词(或动名词)之外,有时还可以接带to的动词不定式。关于这一点,CGEL曾作过清楚而肯定的说明:
We are accustomed to take tea on the terrace.
我们习惯于在凉台上喝茶。
在其他著作中也可以找到这种用法:
1. Mrs. Babbitt was not accustomed to leave home during the winter.
巴比特夫人不习惯冬天出门。
2. She belongs to that class of people who are accustomed to have their own way.
她属于习惯于走自己路的那个阶层。
3.Mrs. Duer was accustomed to sneer at carelessness.
杜尔太太惯于嘲笑粗心大意。
