對于worth的用法,是英語常考的一個知識點,如果你不了解它的用法的搭配,用起來可能比較吃力,那么worth的用法有哪些呢?下面是小編給大家?guī)淼膚orth的用法及搭配_worth的用法總結(jié)版,以供大家參考,我們一起來看看吧!
▼worth的用法
●(一)worth用作定語
1.worth不能單獨做前置定語,當它與while構(gòu)成worthwhile時則可作前置定語。這時,worthwhile
= worthy。例如:
①This is a worthwhile book=This is a worthy book.
2. 用作后置定語。worth放在名詞后面作定語時,后必須接一個動名詞。例如:
①Tianjin is a city worth visiting. 天津是一個值得參觀的城市。
②This is a question worth discussing. 這是一個值得討論的問題。
●(二)Worth用作表語
1. 當句子的主語是物質(zhì)名詞而不是it時,worth后面要求有一個動名詞或名詞作賓語。
Sth. be worth doing / n.:
①The above-mentioned decision is worth studying a little further. 上述決定值得進一步研究。
②What is happening here today is worth notice. 今天在這里發(fā)生的事值得關(guān)注。
③The microcomputer is worth ten thousand dollars.這臺微型電腦值一萬美元。
2. 當句子的主語是it而不是物質(zhì)名詞時,可能有兩種情況:
A. it代表具體東西時,如金錢、物質(zhì)等,其后接動名詞,這時,it既是主語,在意義上又是動名詞的邏輯賓語。例如:
①It is worth saving. 那是值得節(jié)約的。
②It is worth visiting again. 這里值得再一次參觀。
B.it不代表具體東西時,worth后面一般應(yīng)加上while,后面接動名詞或動詞不定式。這時,it為形式主語,真正的主語為動名詞或動詞不定式。
接動名詞或動詞不定式的區(qū)別是:while前面有所有格時,一般接動詞不定式;沒有所有格時,一般接動名詞。例如:
①It is worth our while to use waste materials. 廢物值得利用。
②It is worth while pointing out that heating may bring about certain change in the structure of any material.
值得指出的是,加熱會使任何物質(zhì)的結(jié)構(gòu)發(fā)生某種變化。
