以a-開頭的形容詞用法新探·astir 本站特約作者 李 翔 一、astir的用法 1.【文】起床的 (awake and out of bed) 作表語。例如: He's never astir before 10 o'clock.他從不在10點鐘以前起床。 2. 激動地;轟動的;騷動的( excited about sth or in an excited state) (1) 作表語。例如: The whole village was astir as the visitors arrived. 客人來到時,全村為之轟動。 The whole town was astir with the news. 消息傳來,全城轟動。 (2) 作賓語補足語。例如: News of the Queen's visit set the whole town astir. 女王到訪的消息轟動全城。 (3) 作后置定語。例如: The night was quiet, and there was no sound of anything astir. 夜很靜,一點響動也沒有。 二、astir的搭配 astir with / at。例如: The whole town was astir with / at the news. 消息傳來,全城轟動。 【注】astir不可以用very修飾。楊發(fā)河著《英語形容詞句型指南》(江西高校出版社1992年12月第1版)p28上說:astir可以用very much/much修飾,而實際上,在BUY-BNC BRTISH NATIONAL CORPUS (UK,1980s-1993) (Mark Davies, Brigham Young University ) http://corpus.byu.edu/bnc/和BUY CORPUS OF AMERICAN ENGLISH (1990-2009) (Mark Davies, Brigham Young University) http://www.americancorpus.org/ 上無有一例包含very much/much astir的例證,由此看來,英美人是不用very much / much 來修飾 astir 的(www.hz123456.com)。 |
