adj.(形容词)

sure表示“无疑的,确信的,有把握的”,指主观上对某事相信无疑,不涉及有无客观根据。在句中作表语。

“be sure+不定式”往往表示推测的口气,主语不一定是人,表示“一定会…的”“必定会…的”。

sure还可表示“无可置疑,千真万确”“不偏离的,不动摇的”。

sure用作定语时,表示“经证明可靠的,可信的”。

sure没有比较级与最高级形式。

adj.(形容词)我确信他将会对这起事故负全部责任。

误 I'm sure of that he will take sole responsibipty for the accident.

正 I'm sure that he will take sole responsibipty for the accident.

析 be sure of的宾语是that从句时,介词 of常省略。

他一定已经从北京回来了。

误 I am sure that he must have come back from Beijing.

正 He must have come back from Beijing.

析 must 用来表示讲话人肯定的推测,而 I am sure 也是讲话人用来表明自己的肯定的看法的。因此 must 和 I am sure 用在一起就语义重复,可把 I am sure 删去。

这报告肯定是假的。

误 It is sure the report is false.

正 It is certain that the report is false.

析 用it作形式主语代替后面的名词性从句时,不能用sure,只能用certain。

误 Please make sure that the house will be properly locked.

我对那事很有把握。

误 I am quite sure for it.

正 I am quite sure of it.

析 be sure of〔about〕 意为“对…有把握”“确信”,是句子的主语本身持有的态度,介词不可用for。

误 So long as the Japanese people keep on fighting they must win in the end.

正 So long as the Japanese people keep on fighting they are sure to win in the end.
