20) 关于like的用法
like 可以作动词,也可以作介词。
1、like 作动词,表示一般性的"爱好、喜欢",有泛指的含义。如:
Do you like the color? 你喜爱这种颜色吗?
like 后可接不定式(like to do sth),也可接动词的-ing分词(like doing sth),有时意思不尽相同。如:
She likes eating apples.她喜爱吃苹果。(习惯)
She likes to eat an apple.她喜爱吃一粒苹果。(平常不喜欢吃)
like 与 would 连用,后接不定式,表示愿望或客气的请求。如:
Would you like a cup of tea? 您愿意喝杯茶吗?
"喜欢某人做某事"可以用结构"like sb to do sth/doing sth"。如:They all like me to sing/singing English songs.
他们都喜欢我唱英文歌。
2、like 作介词,可译成"像......"。如:
She is friendly to us like a mother.她对我们友好,就像母亲一样。
It looks like an orange.它看起来像个桔子。
3、区分以下句子:
A. What does he look like? 他长相如何?(指一个人的外貌特征)
B. What is he like? 他人怎么样? (指人的性格特点)
C. The boy like Peter is over there. (句指外貌相似)
D. A boy like Peter can’t do it. (指性格相似)
