v.(动词)

surprise的基本意思是“使惊奇”,指未曾预料的或空前的事物使人产生某种惊讶感或诧异感,强调始料不及或缺乏准备,引申可表示对未做防范的人采取行动或揭露其试图掩盖的事实。用于军事上可指袭击,但不表示是否袭击成功。

surprise是及物动词,其宾语常是人称代词。接名词、代词或以现在分词充当补足语的复合宾语。

surprise后接介词at表示“对…感到惊讶”; 后接介词from表示“出其不意使…说了”; 后接介词into表示“出其不意地使人…”; 后接介词with表示“以…使(某人)惊奇”。

surprise的现在分词和过去分词都可用作形容词,在句中作表语或定语。surprise的现在分词作表语时含主动意义,主语一般是物。常采用以it作形式主语的结构,其真正主语由that引出。surprise的过去分词作表语时含被动意义,主语一般是人,后接由介词at引导的短语、动词不定式或that/wh-从句,表示“对…感到惊奇”。

n.(名词)

surprise表示“惊奇,惊讶”,用作不可数名词; 表示“令人吃惊的事物”,用作可数名词。

surprise在句中还可用作定语。

v.(动词)他的去世使我们很吃惊。

误 His death was surprising to us all.

正 His death surprised us all.

析 surprise为及物动词,表示“令…吃惊”,可以直接加宾语。

听到那消息,我们很吃惊。

误 We are surprising to hear the news.

正 We are surprised to hear the news.

析 surprising为现在分词作形容词表主动,说明主语的性质。surprised为过去分词作形容词表被动,具有“由于…原因而惊骇”的意思,常跟动词不定式或at+sb's/sth v -ing。

我对他在聚会上的举动感到吃惊。

误 I was surprised with his behavior at the party.

正 I was surprised at his behavior at the party.

析 表示“对…感到吃惊”,应该说 be surprised at,而不能说 be surprised with。

他在20天内写完了一本小说,真令人吃惊。

误 It was surprised that he finished writing a novel in only twenty days.

正 It was surprising that he finished writing a novel in only twenty days.

析 surprised 表示“感到吃惊的”,其主语应该是人,而 surprising 表示“令人吃惊的”,其主语应该是物或某件事情。所以误句中的 surprised 应改成 surprising。

关于对儿童施加暴行的新闻报道使人们感到震惊。

误 The newspaper report of an outrage against the children surprised the pubpc.

正 The newspaper report of an outrage against the children shocked the pubpc.

析 surprise 侧重于表示“出人意料而使人感到惊讶”,语气较弱。汉语中的“震惊”,在英文中是 shock,这个词的意味远比 surprise 强。

听到你这么说,我真觉得奇怪。

误 I surprised to hear you say that.

正 I am surprised to hear you say that.

析 当surprise作及物动词表示“使惊奇”“使震惊”时,它后面可直接跟宾语,但要表示“某人对某事感到惊奇”,往往采用 be surprised to- v 的系表结构, surprised是过去分词,在句中作表语。

n.(名词)令我吃惊的是他得奖了。

误 In my surprise, he won the price.

正 To my surprise, he won the price.

析 to one's surprise是固定用法,意为“令人吃惊的是”。

使我吃惊的是,他只用几天时间就完成了这项工作。

误 To my surprised, he managed to finish the work only in a few days.

正 To my surprise, he managed to finish the work only in a few days.

析 “使某人吃惊的是”,英文是“to one's surprise”, to 是介词,所以后接名词。

听到这消息,他脸上露出惊异的神情。

误 His face showed surprises at the news.

正 His face showed surprise at the news.

析 surprise表示“惊奇”时为抽象名词,不可数。

有一件你想不到的事告诉你。

误 Here is surprise for you.

正 Here is a surprise for you.

析 surprise表示“使人惊异的事或东西”时,用作可数名词,可在前面加不定冠词a。

用作名词(n.)
