seem用法总结(精华版) -标准化文件发布号:(9556-EUATWK-MWUB-WUNN-INNUL-DDQTY-KII seem用法总结 seem可用作连系动词或不及物动词,意为“似乎;好像”,其常见用法现归纳如下: 一、“主语+ seem +(to be )+表语”,表语多为名词或形容词,有时是其他的词或短语,以说明主语的特征或状态。例如: Tom seems (to be ) a very clever boy. 汤姆看上去是一个非常聪明的男孩。 The man over there seems to be a new teacher. 那边的那个人看上去像一个新老师。 Mr Black seemed to be quite happy. 布莱克先生好像十分快乐。 This small town seems changed a little. 这个小城镇似乎有点儿变化。 二、“主语+ seem + 不定式”,此句型中的seem与不定式一起构成复合谓语。例如: Mrs Green doesn’t seem (或seems not ) to like the idea. 格林夫人似乎不太喜欢这个主意。 The children seemed to be eating something in the room. 孩子们好像正在房间里吃东西呢。 The young man seemed to have changed much. 这个年轻人看起来变化很大。 三、“It seems + that从句”,其中it 是形式主语,that引导主语从句。例如: It seems that no one knows what has happened in the park. 似乎没有人知道在公园里发生了什么事。 It seems to me that Mr Brown will not come again. 在我看来布朗先生不会再来了。 四、“There + seem to be +名词”,其中to be 可省略。seem 的单复数形式要根据后面作主语的名词的单复数形式而定。例如: There doesn’t seem to be much hope of our beating that team. 看来我们战胜那个队没有多大希望。 There seems no need to wait longer. 看来没有再等的必要了。 一.seem常常和不定式,形容词,分词,名词和介词短语搭配。如: 1.seem+不定式(短语) a)I seemed to hear a voice in the distance . b)Your advice seems to be doing me a favor . c)I seem to have caught a cold . 注意:1seem后跟不定式(短语)时,要注意不定式所表示动作发生的时间,以此来确定不定式的时态。 2seem后不定式的否定式习惯上用 don’t 来代替,(放在seem 前),如: You don’t seem to be quite yourself today ( =You seem not be quite yourself today ) 2.seem +形容词 a) She seems quite happy today. b) The enemy seems powerful but in fact it is weak. [注]此句式出可看作是seem+to be+adj句式的一种简化形式。 如例a可转换为: She seems to be quite happy today. 例b可转换为: The enemy seems to be powerful but in fact it is weak. 但目前由于英语的发展,seem+to be+形容词结构的用法已越来越少,seem+adj的结构已趋成型,属口语语体。 3.Seem+分词 a) The situation seemed quite encouraging. 2 本文来源:https://www.wddqw.com/doc/0205cdd4657d27284b73f242336c1eb91b3733dc.html
