appear和appearto有什么区别
APPEAR和SEEM,有什么区别?
APPEAR和SEEM,有什么区别?
1)意义上的区别:appear 强调自身表现出,流露出;appear 指外表给人的印象,可能是真象也可能是假象,appear的不确定性更大一些;seem 侧重指根据某种迹象作出的推断,也不一定是事实.She seemed to have caught a cold. 她好像感冒了.(根据别人说的,或自己看到某些迹象作出的推断,也不一定是事实,只是‘看起来像,貌似) She appeared to have caught a cold.她好像感冒了.(她像似感冒了,从表面看她又咳嗽有流鼻涕,但到底感没感冒你也不知道,你只是猜测而已)
2)两者都可后接不定式He seems [appears] to be very tired. 他好像很累了.He seems [appears] to have traveled a lot. 他似乎去过不少地方.
3)seem 之后可接介词 like,但 appear 之后一般不能.如:It seems like rain. 看起来天像是要下雨了.但是不能说 It appears like rain. 当然,还有其他一些区别,以上几条是主要的.另外:严格地讲,只能说“appear 与seem 的区别”,而不要说“appear to 与seem to 的区别”,因为appear 与seem 是两个动词,而appear to 与seem to,其后的to 不是介词,是指后接动词不定式.
