appreciate的用法
一、词义用法问题
1. 欣赏,赞赏
That’s because you can’t appreciate music. 这是因为你不能欣赏音乐。
I appreciate his generosity. 我赞赏他的慷慨大方。
2. 理解。体会
I appreciate the difficulty. 我理解这种困难。
I am afraid you don’t appreciate America. 恐怕你不理解美国。
3. 感谢,感激
I appreciate your goodness in calling. 我感谢你好心来访。
He appreciated their confidence. 他感激他们的信任。
二、后续宾语问题
其后可接名(代)词、动名词、名词性从句等作宾语,但不能接不定式。如:
We shall appreciate hearing from you again. 能再次收到你的来信,我们将十分感激。
I appreciate that you h***e come here so early. 感谢你来得这么早。
注意:其后只能接“事”作宾语,而不能接“人”作宾语 (注意:这与thank 的用法恰恰相反)。如:
正:I appreciate your kindness. 谢谢你的好意。
误:I appreciate you for your kindness.
正:He thanked her for her kindness. 他感谢她的好意。
误:He thanked her kindness.
三、后接if或when从句的问题
其后不直接跟if或when引导的从句,若语义上需要接这类从句,需借助it。如:
I would appreciate it very much if you would help me with it.如果你能帮助我做这事,我会十分感激。
We really appreciate it when she offered to help. 她来帮忙了,我们十分感激。
四、有关修饰语的问题
要表示程度,可用 deeply, highly, (very) much 等副词修饰。如:
I deeply appreciate your kindness. 我深深感谢你的好意。
He highly appreciated their help. 他非常感谢他们的帮助。
注意:much 修饰 appreciate时,只能置于其前,而不能置于其后但 very much 却可以):
我们非常感谢你的邀请。(from www.yywords.com)
