请看两个句子: a. He __________ her for her help and then left. http://yingyu.chazidian.com b. He __________ her help and then left. A. thanked,thanked B. appreciated,appreciated C. thanked,appreciated D. appreciated,thanked 此题应选C。容易误选A。该题主要涉及表示“感激”的thank和appreciate的用法: 1. thank表示“感谢”,习惯上只接“人”作宾语,而不能接“事”作宾语: 谢谢你的帮助。 正:Thank you for your help. 误:Thank your help. 谢谢你的好意。 正:Thank you for your kindness. 误:Thank your kindness. 2. appreciate表示“感谢”,则习惯上只能接“事”作宾语,而不能接“人”作宾语(与thank的用法恰恰相反): 谢谢你的好意。 正:I appreciate your kindness. 误:I appreciate you for your kindness. 顺便补充一点appreciate 值得注意的用法习惯:可接动名词作宾语(但习惯上不接不定式): 能再次收到你的来信,我们将十分感激。 正:We shall appreciate hearing from you again. 误:We shall appreciate to hear from you again.
