① I am afraid I don’t agree with you. 恐怕我不会同意你的意见。

② I am afraid (that) you are wrong. 恐怕你错了。

Ⅵ. 口语中,在 I am afraid 之后用so / not,可省去上文提到的内容。如:

①---Has he gone to Guangzhou? 他去广州了吗?

---I’m afraid so.

②---Are we on time? 我们迟到了吗?

---I’m afraid not. 可能没迟到。

38. be amazed at (by) / be amazed to do sth

Ⅰ. be amazed at / by “对……感到惊讶”。如:

① He is amazed at the news. 他对这个消息感到惊讶。

Ⅱ. be amazed to do sth . “对……做某事感到惊讶”. 如:

① I am amazed to see such a bad accident.看到这么严重的事故,我感到很惊讶。

Ⅲ. amaze sb. “使某人惊讶”如:

① The accident amazed me. 这事故使我很惊讶。

[联想]:amazing 形容词,“令人惊异的、了不起的”

amazement 名词。“惊讶”

[注意]:amaze指事件让人大为惊讶,强于surprise; surprise

39. be angry/ get angry

Ⅰ. be / get angry “生某人的气”后面的介词要用with; “因某事而生气”后面的介词要用about / at; be / get angry 后接不定式,这时不定式动词大多为 see 和hear 其不定式同样表生气的原因。如:

① Miss Liu was / got angry with Li Ping because he was late for school today. 刘老师生李平的气是因为他今天迟到了。

② She was / got angry with my behaviour.她对我的行为感到生气。

③ What are you angry about ? 你生什么气?

④ My father was angry at what I said. 我爸对我说的很生气。

Ⅱ. get angry 强调变化,强调由不生气变为生气这一过程;be angry 强调状态,表明正在生气这一状态。

His mother got angry with him when he told her what he had done at school.当他告诉他母亲,他在校的行为时,她生气了。

[联想]:类似的有:

be / become interested in. “对……有兴趣”

be / get married. “结婚”

have / catch a cold “感冒”

be / fall ill “生病” be / fall asleep “入睡、睡着”


40. be good at/ do well in

Ⅰ. be good at / in 意思接近于 do well in. “在(某方面)出色;擅长……”。be good at / in 强调一种笼统情况,而do well in 可表示一种情况,也可指在具体的一次活动中表现出色。

be good at 的反义词组为:be poor (weak) at (in). do well in 的反义词组为:do badly in.如:

① Mary is good at / in maths. = Mary does well in maths. 玛丽数学很好(指情况)。= 玛丽数学学得很好。

② Tom did well in (不宜用be good at.指具体一次)that English test / sports meeting.汤姆在那次英语考试中(运动会中)考得很好(表现出色)。

③ Wu Dong does badly in his lessons. = Wu Dong is weak / poor / at / in his lessons.吴冬功课不好。(指情况)

④ Mei Ying did badly in the high jump 梅英在跳高比赛中成绩不好。(具体一次,不宜替换。)

⑤ Mei Ying is weak / poor in / at high jump.梅英不善于跳高。(指笼统情况)

Ⅱ. do well 和do badly可单独使用,表一种情况;而be good / weak / poor 一定要借助于介词in 或at, 强调在某一个方面,才能表达一个完整的意思。如:

He does well / badly at school. 他在学校里功课很好/很差。
