词语用法

adj. (形容词)

1. busy用作形容词的基本意思是“忙的”,通常指人经常或暂时埋头于一项工作,含有“热衷于”的意味。busy作“繁忙的; 热闹的”解时可修饰物或事物。
2. busy在句中可用作定语或表语。用作表语时,其后常可接介词about, at, in, over , with引起的短语, 这些介词有时可省略,特别是当其宾语为动名词时。busy用于too...to结构时可接动词不定式。

v. (动词)

1. busy既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时,一般接oneself作宾语,常常表示“使自己忙于某事”。

词义辨析

adj. (形容词)

busy, active, diligent

• 这三个词意思比较接近,但含义不同:active侧重主动、活跃; busy侧重忙碌,没有时间; diligent侧重勤勉、用功。另外, active和diligent后多接in,而busy后多接with。

下面两个短语意思不同:

• He is busy in preparing for the examination.他忙着准备考试。
• a busy man 忙人
• a busybody 爱管闲事的人

常见错误

adj. (形容词)

1. 你很忙吗?

   误 Is your work busy?

   正 Are you busy (with your work)?

   析 说“某人工作忙”,应以人作主语。
