1704793770 英文疑难详解 134.listen to, listen for, listen in 的分别
1704793771
1704793772 在 Maugham 的 Of Human Bondage 一书第四章中有云: Mrs. Carey knowing by what train they were coming, waited in the drawing-room and listened for the click of the gate. When she heard it she went to the door.普通在 listen 后都是接 to,为什么在此接 for,二者有何不同?
1704793773
1704793774 【解答】在自动词 listen 后接的介词最普通的是 to,此外还可以接 for,也可以接 in。我们收听广播,或窃听别人讲话(尤其是在电话中),就说 listen in,如:
1704793775
1704793776 When I called on him he was listening in on the radio.(当我去看他时,他正在听广播。)
1704793777
1704793778 We were listening in to the Prime Minister’s speech.(我们正在收音机旁听总理的广播演说。)
1704793779
1704793780 I like to listen in to symphonies and chamber music (on the radio).(我爱收听交响乐和室乐。)
1704793781
1704793782 唯有 listen to 和 listen for 这两个说法,意思近似,要注意加以分辨,以免用错。listen for 含有“期待”的感觉,listen to 则无此意,而只是对已存在的声音倾耳去听而已。说 listen to the footsteps 是对已经发生的脚步声倾耳去听,而 listen for the footsteps 则是还未听到任何足音,只是期待着而用心在听。又 listen to 除普通作“倾听”解外,还另有“听从”、“服膺”的意思,如:
1704793783
1704793784 A man of character always listens to reason on all occasions.(一个有品格的人在任何场合都是服从理性的。)
1704793785
1704793786 兹再就这两种说法举例如下:
1704793787
1704793788 It is a mother who always listens for a baby’s cry.(时时刻刻都在注意婴孩哭声的就是母亲。)
1704793789
1704793790 Please listen carefully for the telephone bell while I’m upstairs.(当我到楼上去了的时候,请你注意听着电话。)
1704793791
1704793792 He kept still, listening for any more noise to come.(他保持静默,用心在听是不是会再发生什么声音。)
1704793793
1704793794 It is a matter of course that you should listen to the lecture of your teacher.(当然在课室里你应该用心听讲。)
1704793795
1704793796 You must listen to the suggestions of wisdom. (你必须倾耳来听智者之言。)
1704793797
1704793798 He won’t listen to me.(他不要听我说的。)
1704793799
1704793800 Listen to the advice of your father and mother.(听父母的话。)
1704793801
1704793802 在 listen to 的后面接指人的词和不定词,不过通常那不定词的“to”不要,如:
1704793803
1704793804 He listened to us talk.(他听了我们的谈话。)
1704793805
1704793806 She liked to listen to children talk.(她爱听孩子们谈话。)
1704793807
1704793808 在上二句中都不说 to talk,凡是用无 to 的不定词的场合,多半都可以用现在分词,即:
1704793809
1704793810 He listened to us talking.(我们正在谈话时他在旁静听。)
1704793811
1704793812 这个不定词的 talk 或现在分词的 talking,也可以说成名词的 talk,即:
1704793813
1704793814 He listened to our talk.(他听了我们的谈话。)但不可以说 He listened to our talking.
