用法辨析
- compare的基本意思是“比较,对照”,主要用于比较事物的典型特征及其价值,而不在于比较相同与不同。
- compare用作及物动词时接名词或代词作宾语,用作不及物动词时,主动形式常具有被动意义。
- compare接with或to可表示“与…相比”,接to还可用于比喻,意为“比作”。接with还可表示“比得上”,这种用法常出现在疑问句或否定句中,且常与can连用。
- compare with与compare to的区别:compare with 的意思是“把……跟……比较”,一般用于两个同类事物之间,着重区别。compare to的意思是“把……比作……看待”,一般用于两个不同性质的事物比较。She compares me with my sister. 她把我和我妹妹进行比较。We may well compare the little girl to a kitten. 我们可能把这个小姑娘比作小猫来看待。
- 当compare用作不及物动词时,解释为“比的上”,“值得比较”,只能用with,不能用to;
- 否定形式可表示为not to be compared with/to;
- compare together的表达中,together是多余的。
v. (动词)
