▼afraid的用法總結(jié)

afraid的基本含義是“害怕”,泛指一種恐懼心理,或者用于表示習(xí)慣的、經(jīng)常的懦弱或怯弱,并帶有因“畏懼”而行動不靈活或談吐不順暢之意。afraid也可表示“擔(dān)憂”或“憂慮”某事物可能產(chǎn)生的后果,即“恐怕”。afraid還可以表示“擔(dān)心”某人〔事物〕會遇到危險。

afraid是表語形容詞,即一般不用在名詞前面作定語。作“害怕”解時其后可接of (sb/sth/ v -ing)引起的短語,也可接動詞不定式和that(常省略)從句,從句中的謂語動詞常用虛擬式。作“擔(dān)心”解時其后可接for引起的短語。

afraid在句中間或可用作賓語補(bǔ)足語。由afraid構(gòu)成的形容詞短語在句中還可用作狀語。

I am afraid...是口語中常見的一種固定搭配(只用單數(shù)第一人稱一般現(xiàn)在時)。可用來表示推測(suppose)、歉意(Excuse me…)、婉拒(I"m sorry but…)或者引出不好的消息(sorry to have to say)。其作用在于使語氣婉轉(zhuǎn)和緩。其位置可在句首,也可在句末。

在回答別人問話時afraid后可用so或not替代問句中的肯定式或否定式賓語。

afraid不可用very修飾,但可用much或very much修飾。

afraid的比較級和最高級是more afraid和most afraid。

偶可見afraid作定語者：①帶修飾語時(前置),例如：Those somewhat afraid children dare not sing.那些有點(diǎn)膽怯的孩子們不敢唱歌。②偶可(如出于修辭需要)后置,例如：A man afraid is a man ashamed.又如：He looks like a man afraid.他看起來像是害怕。

一般認(rèn)為be afraid 后接的that從句(注意此時省略of)作afraid的賓語,因為be afraid具有及物的傾向。但也有人認(rèn)為that從句是狀語從句,還有人認(rèn)為是表語的補(bǔ)足語。
