詞語(yǔ)辨析
remind sb to-v,remind sb of v-ing
【解說(shuō)】remind接雙賓語(yǔ)時(shí)其直接賓語(yǔ)可以是動(dòng)詞不定式,也可以是介詞短語(yǔ)“of+v-ing”。它們之間的區(qū)別是前者指將來(lái)發(fā)生的事情,而后者則指過(guò)去發(fā)生過(guò)的事情。試比較以下兩個(gè)句子He reminded me to answer the letter.他提醒我回這封信。He reminded me of my answering the letter.他提醒我已經(jīng)回過(guò)這封信了。remind,mind,recall,recollect,remember
【解說(shuō)】
這組詞的共同意思是“回憶”“記起”。它們之間的區(qū)別在于1.mind指通過(guò)媒介或激發(fā)力而“想起”,是方言用法。2.recall指有意識(shí)地記起了過(guò)去的事情,還可表示由于看到的東西與往事相似而引起回憶。例如I can still recall your saying to me that you were going to be a lawyer.我還記得清你對(duì)我說(shuō)過(guò)你要當(dāng)律師的事。I don't recall where to meet her.我不能記起在哪兒見(jiàn)過(guò)她。I don't recall how to do it.我不能記憶起怎樣做那事。3.remember則有可能是有意識(shí)地,也可能是不由自主地記住。例如Now,I remember.We met for the first time in the Dabie Mountains.哦,我想起來(lái)了。我們第一次是在大別山見(jiàn)面的。I have never had this kind of experience since I can remember.自我記事以來(lái),我從來(lái)沒(méi)有這樣的經(jīng)歷。She caught herself remembering how things were there twenty years before.她不由自主地回想起20年前那里的情景。4.remind指通過(guò)媒介或激發(fā)力而“想起”。例如The picture reminded him of his home and family in Taiwan.這幅畫(huà)使他想起了在臺(tái)灣的故鄉(xiāng)和親人。The time of year reminds me how the months have gone.每年這個(gè)時(shí)候都使我想起那些月份是怎么過(guò)去的。5.recollect可表示輕松愉快或沉思默想地回憶某事。例如She sat there quietly and began to recollect their happy holidays.她靜靜地坐在那兒,開(kāi)始回憶起他們愉快的假日。memorize,remember,recall,recollect,remind
【解說(shuō)】
這些動(dòng)詞均有“記憶、記住、回憶”之意。memorize指有意識(shí)的下功夫把某事的整個(gè)細(xì)節(jié)都記在腦子里。remember含義較廣,多指無(wú)意識(shí)地回憶起往事,也可指通過(guò)主觀努力去記憶。recall比remember文雅,指想方設(shè)法回憶已經(jīng)遺忘之事。recollect指在記憶中搜索,設(shè)法想起一時(shí)想不起的事情或人,強(qiáng)調(diào)過(guò)程。remind指經(jīng)某人或某事的提醒而回憶起某件已遺忘之事。
