feel pain還是feel painful
請(qǐng)看下面一道題:The operation was successful, but I still felt _________.
A. very painful??????????? B. much painful?????? C. a lot of pain????????? D. very paining
【分析】此題很容易誤選A,想當(dāng)然地認(rèn)為 painful 表示“感到疼痛的”,而其實(shí) painful 的實(shí)際意思卻是“使人感到疼痛的”、“使人感到痛苦的”,所以它通常只能用來(lái)說(shuō)明事物,不宜用來(lái)說(shuō)明人。所以此題應(yīng)選C。又如:
Does it still feel painful? 它還疼嗎? My boots are still painful. 我的靴子仍?shī)A得我的腳痛。He will never forget the painful experience for the rest of his life. 這一段痛苦的經(jīng)歷,他永生難忘。上面一題的最佳答案為C,pain 為名詞,又如:Did you feel any pain? 你感覺(jué)痛嗎?
Where is the pain? 哪兒痛?
要用形容詞表示漢語(yǔ)的“感到疼痛的要AN>”,英語(yǔ)可用 pained。如:
We were all pained to hear of his death. 聽(tīng)到他的死訊,我們都很痛苦。
He looked rather pained at your remarks. 聽(tīng)了你的話他似乎很難受。
