seem的詳細講解:

詞語用法

v. (動詞)
  1. seem的基本意思是“好像”“似乎”,指根據某跡象按照自己的主觀印象、看法作出的主觀判斷或個人推斷,雖然有一定的根據,但并不一定是事實。通常不用于進行體。
  2. seem表示“感覺”時可接“to be+名詞或形容詞”、介詞短語、動詞不定式、現在分詞、過去分詞作表語。在接名詞作表語時,如名詞前有形容詞修飾, to be可以省略,如沒有形容詞修飾, to be則不可省略,在形容詞作主語補足語時to be不可省略,其余情況下to be常省略。
  3. seem還可接連詞that或連詞短語as if〔though〕引導的從句作表語, as if〔though〕的從句常用陳述語氣, that從句可用于陳述語氣,也可用虛擬語氣。此時主語多為非人稱代詞it。
  4. 當句子主語由動詞不定式充當時多采用以it作形式主語的結構。
  5. 在含有seem的句子中,有時可插入to sb。為了強調,有時to sb 可移至句首。
  6. seem還可用于存在句中, seem的主語可為名詞、代詞或動詞不定式(多為to be), seem的形式要與其后的主語一致。
  7. 在美式英語中seem常用于轉移否定句型。

詞義辨析

v. (動詞)
seem, appear, look
  • 這三個詞都可用作系動詞,表示“看起來”。其區別是:
  • 1.在含義上, appear 強調外表上給人的某種印象,有時含實質上并非如此的意思; look意味著看上去如此,實際亦是如此; seem 則暗示判斷有一定根據,這種判斷往往接近事實。例如:
  • He appears to be very young.
  • 他看上去很年輕。(實際上不一定如此)
  • He looks to be very young.
  • 他看上去很年輕。(實際上也年輕)
  • He seems to be very young.
  • 他看上去很年輕。(可能他的確很年輕)
  • 2.在用法上,這三個詞都可跟形容詞或“to be+形容詞或名詞”結構,也可用于It appears〔appeared〕/looks〔looked〕/seems〔seemed〕 as if...結構。但是, appear 和seem跟to- v 時仍表示“看起來”,而look 接to- v 則是“盼望”的意思。例如:
  • He appears〔seems〕 to know it.
  • 他看來知道這件事。
  • He looks to hear from you.
  • 他期待你來信。
  • 另外, appear 和seem可用于It appears〔appeared〕/seems〔seemed〕 that...結構,而look不能。例如:
  • 我看他似乎很喜歡看這部小說。
  • [誤] It looks to me that he enjoys read- ing the novel.
  • [正] It appears〔seems〕 to me that he enjoys reading the novel.
  • 還有, appear 和seem一般不用于進行體; 而look可用現在進行時,這和一般現在時所表示的意思無多大區別。例如:
  • You are looking〔look〕 very unhappy.你看起來很不高興。
  • 下面各組中的兩個句子意思相同:
  • He seemed to be ill.
  • It seemed that he was ill.
  • 他好像在生病。
  • He doesn't seem to be at home.
  • He seems not to be at home.
  • 他好像不在家。
  • 下面兩句意思不同:
  • It seems as if it might rain.
  • 看樣子像要下雨似的。
  • It seems as if it is going to rain.
  • 看來快要下雨了。
  • appear,look,seem
  • 這些動詞均有“看起來,好像是”之意。
  • appear指從感觀印象看似乎是如此,但有時著重指因視野、觀點限制而產生的歪曲印象。
  • look指從樣子看起來,側重通過視覺而建立的印象。
  • seem多指從主觀印象或個反應得出的看法。
  • 常見錯誤

    v. (動詞)
      天好像要下雨。

      It seems as rain.

      It seems like rain.

      seem后面接like,表示“好像”,不可接as。

      “看來我們要趕不上火車了?!薄拔铱词勤s不上了?!?

      “It seems we'll miss the train.”“So it seems not.”

      “It seems we'll miss the train.”“So it seems.”

      “看來她不會加入我們了?!薄翱磥硎侨绱??!?

      “It seems she will not join us.”“It seems.”

      “It seems she will not join us.”“It seems not.”

      在對話中,使用替代詞,可用“So it seems”或“It seems not”,不可用“So it seems not”“It seems”形式。

      好像要起風了。

      It was seeming to get windy.

      It seemed to be getting windy.

      seem不可用于進行體。

      她看來像是出了什么事似的。

      There seems to have something the matter with her.

      There seems to be something the matter with her.

      動詞seem可以用于there seems句型,表示“似乎有…”, seem后接to be,不能用實義動詞have。

      正在講話的那個人好像是這家公司的經理。

      The man who was speaking seemed the manager of this company.

      The man who was speaking seemed to be the manager of this company.

      seem后用作表語的名詞如無形容詞修飾,名詞前須加to be。
