用法辨析
- remind的基本意思是指通过一定的媒介或激发而慢慢想起某事(做过或应做某事)。这事可以是全然忘却的,也可以是一时想不起来的; 这媒介则是引起人们回忆的外界人或事物。
- remind只用作及物动词,可接名词或代词作宾语,也可接双宾语,其直接宾语可由带或不带疑问词的动词不定式、that从句或以疑问词引导的从句充当。
- remind常和介词of连用,表示“提醒注意未来的事”或“使想起过去的事”的内容, of的宾语可以是名词、动名词,也可以是疑问词引导的从句。
- remind作“提醒”解时与remind about同义,其主语只能是人,作“使想起”解时主语通常是事物。
- remind有“remind+主语+不定式”的格式,表示提醒某人做某事。He reminded me to write the letter. 他提醒我写信。
- remind...of...表示“某物或某人使我们想起过去,或是想起忘掉的事情”,of后加名词或动名词。She reminded me of writing the letter. 她使我想起写过那封信。The smell of hay always reminds me of our old house in the country. 甘草的味道总是令我想起了我们在乡村的老房子。
- remind的宾语后能接that或how引导的从句。He reminded me that I ought to do it at once. 他提醒我应该现在就去做这件事。He reminded me how careful I ought to be in doing it. 他提醒我在做这事的时候应如何小心。
- 结构A remind B,C指“A在外貌上像C,因此使B见到A就想起C”。这个用法也适用于比喻中。You remind me Marry. 你和玛丽很像,见到你让我想起了她。He reminded me of a monkey. 他很像猴子,使我见了他就想起猴子。
