 我的图书馆330 2016-12-19

在英语中,经常会遇见一动词被强调不能用于进行时态。小编把这些常见的不用于进行时态的动词进行了总结归纳,一起来了解、学习一下吧!

1
表示感觉的动词

如:see (看见) , hear (听见) , feel (感觉出) , taste (尝出) , smell (闻到) , notice,observe等。

  • 误:The medicine is tasting bitter.

    正:The medicine tastes bitter.

  • 误:I was seeing a car passing by our house.

    正:I saw a car passing by our house.

  • 误:This cake is smelling wonderful.

    正:This cake smells wonderful.

  • 误:He is hearing much better after an operation.

    正:He hears much better after an operation.

小贴士

(1)这些动词之所以不用于进行时态,是因为这些感官的感觉是无意识的。如果这些动词表示有意识的行为,则可以用于进行时态,此时词义也发生了变化。试比较:

① She was smelling scent at one counter while I was buying some medicine at another. 她在一个柜台闻着香水,我在另一个柜台买药。(此处smell为有意识的行为,意为“闻”,所以用进行时态)

② I smell something burning in the kitchen. 我闻到厨房里有东西烧焦了。(此处smell表示无意识的行为,意为“闻到”,所以不用进行时态)


(2)当这些不用于进行时态的动词词义发生了变化,也可以用于进行时态。例如:  

① I shall be hearing some new applications for the choir this afternoon. 今天下午我将对新加入合唱队的人进行审听。(此处hear意为“审听”)

② How are you feeling now? 你今天感觉如何?(此处feel表示身体状况和心情)

③ He is seeing a client at 2:30. 他两点半要见一位客户。(此处see意为“会见”)

2
表示某种情感或精神状态的动词

如:believe, doubt, feel (= have an opinion), hate, image, know, (dis)like, love, prefer, realize, appreciate, recognize, remember, see (= understand), suppose, think (= have an opinion), understand, want, wish等。如:

  • 误:I’m feeling it necessary to tell her about it.

    正:I feel it necessary to tell her about it.(此处feel 意为“认为”)

  • 误:I am appreciating your help very much.

    正:I appreciate your help very much. (此处appreciate意为“感激”)

  • 误:I am thinking this is their house, but I’m not sure.

    正:I think this is their house, but I’m not sure. (此处think意为“认为”)

3
一些用于交际和应答的动词

如:agree, appear, astonish, deny, disagree, impress, look (= seem), mean, please, promise, satisfy, seem,surprise等。如:
