appreciate 用法详解

appreciate 用法详解

1. 表示“感激”、“赞赏”等，通常为及物动词，其后可接名词、动名词、名词性从句等作宾语，但不能接不定式。如：

I really appreciate a good cup of tea. 有好茶一杯，我就真乐在其中了。

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 have come here so early. 感谢你来得这么早。

其后不直接跟 if 引导的从句，若语义上需要接这类从句，需借助 it。如：

I would muchappreciate it if you would arrange this for

us. 如果你能替我安排这事，我将非常感激。

2. 其后只能接“事”作宾语，而不能接“人”作宾语（注：这与thank 的用法不同)。如：

正：We appreciate your help. 我们感谢你的帮助。

误：We appreciate you for your help.

正：He thanked her for her help. 他感谢她的帮助。

误：He thanked her help.
