介詞 of 用法注意
1. 表示所有關系,用以構成名詞的所有格,如the gate of the school(校門),the secret of success(成功的秘密),等。 注意以下正誤表達: 正:He is a friend of my father. 他是我父親的一位朋友。 正:He is a friend of my father’s. 他是我父親的一位朋友。 正:He is a friend of mine. 他是我的一位朋友。 誤:He is a friend of me. 以下表達是錯誤的: 誤:What’s the name of you?(改為…your name) 誤:Do you know the father of him?(改為…his father) 誤:I will show the books of me.(改為…my books) 但是以下表達卻是對的(of表示動賓關系): 正:I hate the sight of him. 我討厭看到他。 正:His criticism of her is serious. 他對她的批評是嚴肅 的。 2. 與 age, shape, size, colour, height, design, weight 等名詞連用,可用作表語或定語;其中的介詞 of 有時可省略。如: The two boys are (of) the same height. 這兩個男孩一樣高。 Here is a piece of wood (of) the right size. 這有一塊木頭,其大小剛好適合。 When I was (of) your age, I lived in the country. 我像你這個年紀的時候,我住在鄉下。 3. 與某些名詞(如help, value, interest, importance等)連用,相當于形容詞,可用作定語或表語。如: It’s not of much value. 這沒有多大價值。 This subject is of great interest to me. 這門學科對我來說是很有趣的。 The dictionary is of much help to the students. 這本字典對學生幫助很大。 4. 與 hear, talk, know, speak 等動詞連用,表示一種間接性,大意為“涉及到”。如: I’ve never heard of anyone doing a thing like that. 我從未聽說有人做過那種事。 Mary is talking of looking for another job. 瑪麗說起要另找一份工作。 I don’t know the writer, but I know of him. 我不認識這個作家,但我聽說過他。 People spoke of their fear as the flood waters rose. 人們說起看到洪水上漲時的恐懼。
