discover的詳細講解：

詞語用法

v. (動詞)
  1. discover的基本意思是“除去覆蓋物,使之顯示出本來的面目”。引申則表示“發現”,指發現的對象本來存在,但人們不知道而被發現者所發現,可指人發現人、物或地方,也可以指人發現特定的活動或科學規律。
  2. discover也可表示出乎意料地撞見〔碰見〕某事物或了解到、認識到、發覺某事物,由此引申可表示弄明真相或找到答案。
  3. discover是及物動詞,可接名詞、代詞、帶疑問詞的不定式、that/wh-從句作賓語,也可接以動詞不定式、現在分詞和“to be+ n./adj./prep. -phrase”充當補足語的復合賓語?？捎糜诒粍咏Y構。

詞義辨析

v. (動詞)
discover, find, find out, invent, look for
  • 這組詞(組)都有“發明”“發現”的意思。discover指發現或偶然發現原來就存在但一直未被認識的東西; look for作“尋找”解時,指尋找的動作和過程; find指尋找的結果,即“找到”,是非延續性動詞,不如discover正式; find out指經過觀察、調查把某事、某物查出來,搞清楚,弄明白,多用于復雜而不易直接查出的情況; invent指發明原來不存在的東西,有時也可指虛構、捏造。例如:
  • Whilhelm Roentgen discovered X rays.威爾海爾姆·倫琴發現了X射線。
  • He was amazed to find her there.發現她在那里,他很吃驚。
  • Let's try and find out what's at the back of this problems.咱們想法弄清問題的背景是怎樣的。
  • Whatt invented the steam engine.瓦特發明了蒸汽機。
  • She ran across some old letters when she was looking for something else.她找別的東西時,偶然翻出幾封過去的信。
    • discover, uncover
  • 這兩個詞都是由cover加表示否定意義的前綴構成的,都是“發現”的意思。其區別是：
  • uncover只用于貶義,一般譯作“揭露”。另外, discover還可接復合賓語,而uncover不可。例如:
  • We uncovered the essence of the thing.我們揭露了那件事的本質。
    • discover, ascertain, determine, learn, unearth
  • 這組詞都可表示“發現以前自己不知道的東西”。其區別是：
  • discover指經過調查、探索去發現已經存在或可能存在、事實上的東西,這種發現也可能出于偶然; ascertain很少指偶然的發現,側重先前的無知與無把握,以及認真地去發現真理或真相; determine比ascertain更強調尋找事實或真理,以解決爭端或爭執,主要用于科學和法律方面; unearth指將隱藏的、被遺忘的、失去的或極其難以追尋的東西公之于眾或暴露于世,常常強調發現以前所做的認真長期的調查; learn指獲得知識,發現者一般沒有或很少花多大力氣。例如:
  • The surgeon general has determined that cigarette smoking is dangerous to our health.衛生局長已確定吸煙危害健康。
  • The question is to ascertain what the people really want.問題在于一定要弄清人們究竟需要什么。
  • We discovered the powder consisting of harmful ingredients.我們發現這種粉末含有害成分。
  • Projecting ourselves into the future world, we should learn as much as we can now.設想一下處身于未來的世界當中,我們現在就應該盡可能多學一點東西。
  • They have unearthed the secret.他們已經發現了這個秘密。
    • discover, betray, disclose, divulge, expose, reveal
  • 這組詞的共同意思是“揭露”“泄露”。其區別是：
  • reveal指揭示迄今為止仍在保密狀態的東西或啟示超乎常人領悟能力的真理; discover指把原來已經存在,但未被發現、看見或理解的事物加以揭露; disclose側重把事先未宣布或一直保密的事情公之于世; divulge側重在公開場合不正當或背信棄義的泄露秘密或暴露隱私; betray指背約或辜負別人信任的告密,也指不自覺地泄密; expose揭露的對象一般是丑惡的、見不得人的,也可指把人或物暴露于不利地位。
    • 下面三句意思相同:
  • We have discovered that he is quite un- trustworthy.
  • He has been discovered to be quite un- trustworthy.
  • We have discovered him to be quite un- trustworthy.
  • 我們發現他很不可靠。
    • discover，find，detect，ascertain
  • 這些動詞均有“發現”之意。
  • discover指發現本來已經存在，后被人認識的事物、真理或情況。
  • find普通用詞，可指偶然發現，也可指經過尋找后得到或重新獲得已失去的東西。強調動作的結果。
  • detect正式用詞，強調經過周密觀察或研究而有所獲得和發現，尤指發現有意隱藏之物。
  • ascertain較正式用詞，指有意搜尋與發現。

    • 常見錯誤

    v. (動詞)
      我發現他們正在我們的池子里游泳。

      誤 I discovered swimming in our pool.

      正 I discovered them swimming in our pool.

      析 discover不可接動名詞作賓語,但可接以現在分詞充當補足語的復合賓語。

    詞源解說

    • ☆ 直接源自中古英語的discoveren，意為發現，暴露，顯示。
