painful 的用法一得
请看下面一题:
The operation was successful, but I still felt _________.
A. very painful B. much painful C. a lot of pain D. very paining
此题容易误选A,想当然地认为:pain 表示痛,其形容词painful自然表示表示感到疼痛的。
其实 painful 的意思并不是感到疼痛的,而是表示使人感到疼痛的、使人感到痛苦的,所以它通常用于说明事物,而不宜用于说明人。比较并体会:
他仍很痛苦。
正:He is still in pain.
误:Hes still painful.
你感到痛吗 ?
正:Do you feel any pain?
误:Are you painful?
见到你这样生活我很痛心。
正:I am pained to see you living this way.
误:I am painful to see you living this way.
听到他的死讯,我们都很痛苦。
误:We were all painful to hear of his death.
正:We were all pained to hear of his death.
他眼睛痛。
正:He has painful eyes.
误:Hes painful in the eyes.
