用法辨析
- represent的基本意思是“代表”,多指受委托代表某人、組織、機(jī)構(gòu)、國家等辦理某事。引申可指“象征”“體現(xiàn)”“表示”“描繪”“聲稱”“扮演”等。
- represent既可用作及物動詞,也可用作不及物動詞。用作及物動詞時,可接名詞、代詞、that從句作賓語;也可接雙賓語,其間接賓語須由介詞to引出。represent還可接以as短語充當(dāng)補(bǔ)足語的復(fù)合賓語。
- 注意represent與delegate的意思區(qū)別:represent指“代表某人”。delegate指“委派某人”。He represented me at the meeting. 他代表我在會議上。He delegated me to the meeting. 他派我代表他去會議。
- represent有做“說明,闡明”的意思。He represented her to be an actress. 三句的意思相同,均表達(dá)“他說她是個女演員”的意思。
- present sb with sth指“將某物贈送某人”。
v. (動詞)
