词语用法

1. see的宾语后接不定式时，不带to。see处于被动语态时，后面所接的不定式带to。

   I often see him walk up the hill.
   我经常看见他上山。

   He is often seen to walk up the hill.

2. 一般情况下，see后既可加不定式，也可加分词，前者语气更重一些。但是在表示“故意看……”时，一般用不定式，不用分词。

   I often see him walk up the hill.
   I often see him walking up the hill.

3. see后可接宾语和表语。

   I hope to see you well again soon.
   I was sorry to see him so much changed.

4. see可表示“访问”或者是“接见”。

   I shall come to see you tomorrow morning.
   我明天早晨去访问你。

   If you call tomorrow morning, I shall be glad to see you.
   如果你明天早晨来访的话，我很乐意接见。

5. see to表示“注意做到”时，to属于介词，后接动名词。

   I must see to getting the dinner ready.

6. see after和see into同look after和look into的意思相同，但是没有look的使用普遍。

v. (动词)

1. see的基本意思是指一般视觉意义上的“看见”,也可指有意识地“观察”,引申可表示由观察而“领会”“理解”。see还有“访问”“考虑”“务必做到”“保证”“发生”“经历”等意思。
2. see既可用作不及物动词,也可用作及物动词。用作及物动词时,可接名词、代词、带疑问词的动词不定式、that从句或由疑问词引导的从句作宾语。有时也可接与see不同形的同源宾语。
3. “see+量词+of”表示看见某人的频率。see more of sb 是固定习语,意为“较多地见到”, more可换用little, quite a lot, much less, a great deal等表示相应的意义。
4. see还可接以as短语、动词不定式、名词、动名词、形容词、副词、介词短语或现在分词,过去分词充当补足语的复合宾语。接动词不定式作补足语时,不带to,但如果用于被动结构则不能省略to。
5. see接现在分词或动词不定式构成复合宾语时,现在分词表示宾语的一个主动、正在执行的动作(多是目前的事情),有时也可表示某动作过程的一部分,还可表示状态; 而动词不定式则侧重一个完整的过程(多是指过去的事情),表示一个事件。see接以动词的过去分词充当补足语的复合宾语时,表状态,含有被动意义。
6. see可用作系动词,接形容词作表语。
7. see表示“看见”时,为表知觉的动词,通常不用一般现在时态或进行时态,而常常用 can see和 could see来表示“(当时)看到”。作“会见”“送”解时,可用进行体。
8. 在see to it that后的从句中常用一般现在时表示将来,强调某一愿望或要求一定要实现,即使在句子中有明确表示将来的时间状语,也用一般现在时,不用将来时。在口语中to it可省略。
9. You see?的意思是“明白吗”,常用于句首,是一种无实义的口语。let me see和I will see意为“我考虑考虑”“我想想”。
10. see a/the doctor的意思是“看病”,在方言中可译为“看医生”。

词义辨析

v. (动词)

see sb/sth to/ -v, see sb/sth v-ing, see sb/sth v-ed

• see可接以动词不定式、现在分词、过去分词充当补足语的复合宾语,但意义上有区别：
• 1.接动词不定式时表示动作的全过程; 接现在分词只表示动作过程的一部分; 而接过去分词则表示已经完成的动作,含有被动意义。例如:
• I saw her put the key in the lock, turn it and open the door.我看见她把钥匙插进锁眼,转动钥匙,把门打开。
• I saw the train coming into the station.我看见火车开进站来。
• He saw the man knocked down by a car.他看到那男子被汽车撞倒了。
• 2.有时动词不定式单纯表示事实,而现在分词则具有描写色彩。试比较：
• We saw the sun rise.
• 我们看见了日出。
• We saw the sun rising behind the trees.
• 我们看见太阳从树后出来。

see, call, drop in, visit

• 这组词均有“拜访”之意。它们之间的区别是:
• 1.从语气上说:visit是正式用语; call比较正式; drop in则是日常用语,有“顺便”“不定期”的意味; see一般用于亲友间的访问。例如:
• The foreign delegation is visiting in Beijing.外国代表团正在北京访问。
• The Britain Ambassador called on Premier Zhou Enlai yesterday.英国大使昨天拜会了周恩来总理。
• He sometimes drops in to see me in the evening.他有时晚上来看我。
• I'll go to see my parents tomorrow.明天我要去看望父母。
• 2.在使用场合上:call和visit都可用于社交和公务,但医生到病人家出诊则要用visit。例如:
• I visited〔called〕 on the foreign guests yesterday.昨天我走访了外国客人。
• In China, restaurant and hotel kitchens are visited〔called〕 on regularly by officers of public health.在中国,卫生人员经常检查饭店和旅馆的厨房。
• The doctor is out.He went to visit an emergency case.医生不在。他有急病号,出诊去了。
• 3.call的时间一般都很短暂,而visit逗留的时间则较长。试比较以下两个句子:
• I shall call on you this afternoon.
• 今天下午我去拜访您。
• When he visited us last year he told us a story every evening.
• 去年他来我们这儿作客时,每晚都给 我们讲一个故事。
• 4.visit在英国较少用,一般情况下都用call。如果用了visit,则含有“逗留几天”或“出于公务〔职务〕的要求”的意思。
• 5.社交场合用的“名片”英美说法不同。美国称calling card,英国称visiting card。

see, look, watch

• 这三个词都有“看”的意思。其区别是：
• look指有意识的“动作”;see指有意或无意的“结果”;watch则指有意识地以期待、警觉等心情看上一段时间。例如:
• We looked but saw nothing.我们看了,可是什么也没看到。
• They are watching a TV play.他们在看电视剧。

see, eye

• 这两个词的共同意思是“看”。它们的区别是：
• 1.see强调看到的结果。
• 2.eye则带有某种感情色彩,如“瞪着眼睛看”等。例如:
• She eyed him from top to toe.她从头到脚打量他。
• They eyed each other's newly bought shoes.他们看着彼此新买的鞋。

see, observe, perceive

• 这三个词都可表示“察觉”。它们之间的区别是：see是一般用语,指意识到眼前的东西,但不一定有意去注意或加以识别; perceive是正式用语,含有有意识地去注意或识别所见东西的意思; observe则表示有意识地察看。试比较以下三个句子的含义：
• I saw someone standing in the doorway.
• 我看到有人站在门口。
• We perceived the figure to be your room- mate.
• 我们察觉那个人就是你的室友。
• We observed a change in her.
• 我们注意到她有了某种变化。

see, appreciate, comprehend, understand

• 这组词都有“明白”或“理解”的意思。其区别在于：
• 1.see的基本意思可指一般视觉的“看见”,也可指有意识地“观察”,引申可表示由观察而“领会”“理解”。
• 2.comprehend指用智力充分而完全地理解事物的内在含义。例如:
• The child read the story but didn't comprehend its full meaning.那孩子看了这篇故事,但没有理解它的全部意思。
• If you can use a word correctly and effectively you comprehend it.如果你能正确、有效地使用一个词,你就是了解它了。
• 3.understand则是明白别人说的话,完全了解某种事实。例如:
• My wife doesn't understand me.我的妻子不理解我。
• I've read the letter but I don't understand it.这封信我已经看过了,可是看不懂。
• 4.appreciate指对某物有较深的理解能力,强调“欣赏”。例如:
• She appreciated a work of art.她欣赏一件艺术品。
• I am incapable of appreciating classical music.我不会欣赏古典音乐。

下面两句意思有细微区别:

• Seeing is believing.
• 眼见为实。
• To see is to believe.
• 见后就会相信。

call on，see，visit，drop in

• 这些动词或词组均含有“拜访，访问”之意。
• call on社交上的正式用语，指无目的、礼节性的短暂拜访，访问者与被访问者之间一般只有社交或公务关系。
• see常用词，含义广泛，既可指接受他人来访，又可指去访问他人。
• visit正式用词，强调出于工作需要的访问，也指亲戚朋友间的看望。
• drop in多指在计划之外或事先未打招呼的偶然、顺便访问。也可指参观。

look，see，watch，observe，witness

• 这些动词均有“看”之意。
• look侧重“看”的动作。
• see指看见。
• watch指用眼睛跟随某物，以便对每一个变化、运动等进行观察。
• observe侧重以客观的态度进行观察。
• witness指当场看见，亲眼看见。

常见错误

v. (动词)

1. 这老妇人从头到脚地看他。

   误 The old woman saw him from head to foot.

   正 The old woman looked at him from head to foot.

   析 look at和 see 都有“看”的意思。前者侧重“看”的动作和过程,后者强调“看”的结果。

2. 你气色很好,我从来没看见你气色这样好过。

   误 You look so well. I've never seen you to look so well before.

   正 You look so well. I've never seen you look so well before.

3. 有人看见那贼走进一家杂货店。

   误 The thief was seen come into a grocery.

   正 The thief was seen to come into a grocery.

   析 在主动语态中, see后面可以接不定式作补语,不带to; 被动语态中则须带to。

4. 我们看见书店前一大群人在等着买那本书。

   误 We saw crowds of people waited outside the bookshop wanting to buy the book.

   正 We saw crowds of people waiting outside the bookshop wanting to buy the book.

   析 see动词后可以接现在分词或过去分词构成复合宾语。现在分词表示宾语的一个主动、正在执行的动作。

5. 数以千计的人在机场给他们送行。

   误 Thousands of people were at the airport to see off them.

   正 Thousands of people were at the airport to see them off.

   析 see...off意为“为…送行”,它的宾语是人称代词时,需放在see off之间。

6. 我每天吃过晚饭就看电视。

   误 I see television after dinner every day.

   正 I watch television after dinner every day.

   析 习惯上,“看电视”应该说 watch television,而不使用see television。

7. 我临窗站着,望着人们匆匆走过。

   误 I stood by the window, seeing people passing by in a hurry.

   正 I stood by the window, watching people passing by in a hurry.

   析 see作“看见”讲,是瞬间的动作,一般不用于进行体。watch表示持续性动作,可用于进行体。

8. 穿过窗户,我只能看见屋顶。

   误 Through the window,I was seeing nothing but roofs.

   正 Through the window,I could see nothing but roofs.

9. 我看到了海。

   误 I see the sea.

   误 I am seeing the sea.

   正 I can see the sea.

   正 I could see the sea.

   析 当see表示“看见”时,是表示知觉的动词,通常不用一般现在时或进行时,而常常用 can see或 could see来表示“(当时)看到”,一般现在时表示将来动作。

10. 如果我负责扫地,你是否负责擦窗户?

    误 If I'll see to sweep the floor, will you see to clean the windows?

    正 If I'll see to sweeping the floor, will you see to cleaning the windows?

    析 see to表示“负责,注意”,其中to是介词,所以 see to后面应跟动名词,而不能跟动词不定式。

11. 务必使你班上的每个学生都拿到一本新词典。

    误 See it that each student in your class gets a copy of the new dictionary.

    正 See to it that each student in your class gets a copy of the new dictionary.

    正 See that each student in your class gets a copy of the new dictionary.

    析 see to it that...是动词 see的一个常用句型,作“务必要”解,这里的 to不能省略,但在口语中常将 to it 一起省去,仅说see that...。

12. 他骗不了她; 她每次都能识破他的骗局。

    误 He can't fool her; she sees him through every time.

    正 He can't fool her; she sees through him every time.

    析 短语see through表示“看透”或“识破”, through在此为介词,宾语应置于through后。

13. 我很高兴,见到了你的妈妈。

    误 I am glad to see your mother.

    正 I am glad to have seen your mother.

    析 当不定式to see所表示的动作发生在谓语所表示的动作之前时,该不定式就要用完成式 have seen。

14. 现在你明白我的意思了吗?

    误 Now you are seeing what I mean?

    正 Now you see what I mean?

    析 see作“明白、领会、理解”解时,不能与进行时连用。
