v.(动词)

pretend的基本意思是“伪装”“假装”,强调明显地表露出是假的。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,还可接以形容词充当宾语补足语的复合宾语。

pretend也可用作不及物动词,常与介词to连用,表示“自称应该享有(所有权、权利)或自称有才能、学问”等,也可表示“觊觎”。一般用于疑问句或否定句中。

pretend在口语中还可接as if或pke引导的从句,表示“装…的样子”,此时pretend用作系动词,从句的谓语动词要用陈述式。

v.(动词)当我走进房间时,她假装在读一本小说。

误 She pretended reading a novel when I came into the room.

正 She pretended to be reading a novel when I came into the room.

析 pretend作为及物动词可以接动词不定式,但不可以接动名词作宾语。

误 When his mother came in, he pretended to do his homework.

正 When his mother came in, he pretended to be doing his homework.
