释义

1.expect的基本意思是“期待”“料想”,指相信或盼望有人会来或有事会发生,这种预料多有一定的根据,强调的是客观可能性,多用于好的方面,在口语中expect的意思常淡化为“认为”“想”,此时主语多为第一人称单数。 2.expect多用作及物动词,可接名词、代词、动词不定式或that从句作宾语,也可接以动词不定式充当补足语的复合宾语。 3.expect所接的that从句在表示“预料”“期望”时可用虚拟式,在作“想”“认为”解时可用陈述式, that有时可以省略。 4.expect的宾语从句若是否定式,常可用于转移否定结构,即把否定词移至主句。但在对话中则既可采用I don't expect so的形式,也可采取I expect not的形式,后者为非正式的语体。 5.expect后有时可用so和not分别代替前面的句子或分句的肯定式或否定式宾语。 6.在表示过去未曾实现的“期望”“预料”时,须用过去完成时,而不用一般过去时。 7.expect是表示思想状态的动词,一般不用于进行体,但在表示语气婉转时可用于现在进行时。 8.expect还可用作“怀孕”的委婉说法,此时需用进行体。 9.expect of和expect from都可表示“指望”“期望”,意思相同,可互换使用。 10.expect的过去分词expected可用作形容词,在句中作表语或定语。

词语辨析

expect, anticipate, look for, look forward to 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。 expect, wait for 这两个词(组)的共同意思是“等待”。其区别是:expect指的是一种等待的心境,并非除此以外不干任何事情。例如: He is expecting a letter.他正在等一封信。 wait for则强调动作本身,即不干别的事而专门等待。例如: “Why are you standing here?” “I am waiting for Mr. Green.”“你站在这儿干什么?”“我在等格林先生。” expect, await 这两个词都有“期待”的意思。其区别是：await 除了指希望之外,还暗示思想上做好了某事会发生的准备。而expect强调某事不论好坏必然发生。例如： She had reason to expect that the trip would be exciting. 她有理由以为这次施行该是令人兴奋的。 We await your reply with interest. 我们极感兴趣地等待你的答复。 expect, hope 参见hope条。 下面两句意思不同: I expect John to come to the meeting. 我希望约翰能来开会。 (表示简单的想法) I expect John will come to the meeting. 我期望约翰能来开会。 (如果他不来,就会对他生气或失望) 下面两句意思相同: What can you expect from him? What can you expect of him? 你能指望他什么吗? 下面的句子有两种含义: I expect him to come. 我预料他会来。 我要求他来。

注意点

正误解析

1.她希望明天走。 [误] She expects leaving tomorrow. [正] She expects to leave tomorrow. [析] expect后只可接动词不定式,而不可接动名词。 2.我认为今天晚些时候不会下雨。 [误] I expect it won't rain later today. [正] I don't expect it will rain later today. [析] expect的宾语从句若是否定式,否定词须移至主句。 3.你们到得比预料得早。 [误] You arrived earlier than expecting. [正] You arrived earlier than expected. [析] expect用在than或as引导的状语从句中,可以用一个省略句,但是省略句的主语和主句的主语必须一致。 4.母亲好几天就盼望你回家了。 [误] Mother has been expecting you to come back for several days. [正] Mother has been expecting you for several days. [析] expect已有“盼望…(回)来”的意思,后面不必再用to come back。

学习参考

1.expect后接名词或代词时往往含有动作的意味,因此有时状语并不修饰expect,而是修饰隐含的不定式短语。例如: He expects to take a vacation in May. 他希望在5月休假。 2.expect后接动词不定式充当补足语的复合宾语时,补语的不定式动词有时可以省略。例如: We expect him this afternoon.我们料他今天下午能来(to come可以省去,而this afternoon这个时间状语是修饰to come的,不是修饰expect的)。 3.expect后也常接动词不定式的被动式,不定式短语与句子的主语构成逻辑上的动宾关系。例如: He expected to be taken care of.他期望得到照顾。 4.be expecting sb/sth 可表示说话者深信某人会来或某事会发生。例如: Tom was expecting an important letter from France.汤姆在等一封来自法国的重要的信。
