词语辨析

I look forward to,I am looking forward to.

短语look forward to在句中可用于一般现在时,也可用于一般进行时,前者口气较随便,多用在私人信件中;后者口气较正式,常用在公文中。

look for, look forward to, anticipate, expect

这组词(组)的共同意思是“期待,等待”。其区别是:expect指“等待某事发生”,常有一定的根据,发生的可能性较大；anticipate含有“预先体味”的意味；look for是日常用词,也可表示“期待”；look forward to指以欢乐或焦急的心情期待某事发生。例如:

I expect to see some fine films during the holidays.我期望假期能看上几部好电影。

We anticipate that we shall hear from you again.我们预感到将会再接到你的信。

I think we may look for a better result next time.我想下次结果可能会好一些。

I'm looking forward to your visit.我期待着你的来访。

look, appear, seem

这三个词都可用作系动词,表示“看起来”。其区别是：

1.在含义上,appear强调外表上给人的某种印象,有时含实质上并非如此的意思;look意味着看上去如此,实际亦是如此;seem则暗示判断有一定根据,这种判断往往接近事实。例如:

He appears to be very young.

他看上去很年轻。(实际上不一定如此)

He looks to be very young.

他看上去很年轻。(实际上也年轻)

He seems to be very young.

他看上去很年轻。(可能他的确很年轻)

2.在用法上,这三个词都可跟形容词或“to be+形容词或名词”结构,也可用于It appears〔appeared〕/looks〔looked〕/seems〔seemed〕as if…结构。但是appear和seem跟to-v时仍表示“看起来”,而look接to-v则是“盼望”的意思。例如:

He appears〔seems〕 to know it.

他看来知道这件事。

He looks to hear from you.

他期待你来信。

另外,appear和seem可用于It appears〔appeared〕/seems〔seemed〕 that…结构,而look不能。例如:

我看他似乎很喜欢看这部小说。

[误]It looks to me that he enjoys reading the novel.

[正]It appears〔seems〕 to me that he enjoys reading the novel.

还有,appear和seem一般不用于进行体;而look可用现在进行时,这和一般现在时所表示的意思无多大区别。例如:

You are looking〔look〕 very unhappy.你看起来很不高兴。

这两个词的共同意思是“看”,都可接介词at。其区别是:glance指匆忙地看一眼,也指粗略地、随便看看、暗暗地看; 而look则表示有意识地注意看,将视线集中于某人或某物上,着重于看的动作。例如:

She felt very nervous with so many people looking at her.这么多人瞧着她,她感到非常紧张。

I found the child opposite looking at my red hat.我发现对面的孩子在看我的红帽子。

这三个词都有“看”的意思。其区别是:look指有意识的“动作”;see指有意或无意的“结果”;watch则指有意识地以期待、警觉等心情看上一段时间。例如:

We looked but saw nothing.我们看了,可是什么也没看到。

They are watching a TV play.他们在看电视剧。

正误解析

1.我非常渴望见你。

[误]I am looking forward to see you.

[正]I am looking forward to seeing you.

[析]look forward to中的to是介词,不是动词不定式符号。

2.他看上去很高兴。

[误]He looks happily.

[误]He is looking happy.

[正]He looks happy.

[析]look用作系动词时其后不跟副词,并且不用于进行体。

3.他看起来很英俊。

[误]He is looked handsome.

[正]He looks handsome.

[析]look用作系动词时不用于被动结构。

4.他看起来像只猴子。

[误]He looks as a monkey.

[正]He looks a monkey.

[析]look用作系动词时可跟as if引导的从句,或to be n./adj.结构, to be有时可省略,但不跟as短语。
