介词搭配bored by/of/with?Compare with/to?Different from/than/to?
Bored by, of, with?
到底该用哪一种表达方式呢?还是哪一种的使用更为普遍呢?
Do you ever get bored with eating out all the time?
Delegates were bored by the lectures.
He grew bored of his day job.
以上例句中的前两种bored with和bored by的结构都是标准的。第三种bored of与之相比是更新近出现的,其使用也变得非常普遍。事实上,牛津英语语料库(Oxford English Corpus)中收录的有关bored of的例子数量几乎是含有bored by的两倍。这也很好地展现了语言的发展逻辑,这种新模式可能是受到诸如tired of或weary of结构的影响。然而,有些人还是不喜欢新模式的,而且在标准英语中也没有完全接受它。所以,在正式写作中,请尽量避免使用bored of。
Compare with, to?
一般来说,这两个介词的搭配都是正确的,但一部分取决于词义,一部分取决于语法。此外,美式英语中更倾向于使用介词to,而英式英语中这两个介词的使用频率比较均衡。
让我们先来看看这两个短语的含义。Compare可以宽泛地定义为“评估事物之间的相似性或差异性”。在“比较”这一词义上,两个介词都可以使用。例如:
Individual schools compared their facilities with those of others in the area.
It is difficult to compare our results to studies conducted in the United States.
但是,在使用compare表达一件事物类似于另一件事物时,或是说两种不同事物之间进行类比时,必须使用介词to,表示“将…比作…”。例如:
Her novel was compared to the work of Daniel Defoe.
He compared children to young trees, both still growing and able to be shaped.
让我们看一个来自莎士比亚的例子。它出自《莎士比亚十四行诗》第十八首,也是英语诗歌中最为著名的诗句之一:
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
莎士比亚将收信人比作一个夏日,尽管在诗作最后,他表示他的心爱之人要比这样的夏日更为可爱。
作为不及物动词
英式英语中,compare用作不及物动词时常常搭配介词with,以此评估相似性:
His achievements do not compare with those of A. J. Ayer.
Noother English painter can compare with Sutherland in the subtlety of his vision.
而在美式英语中,compare to是更为常见的搭配:
None of those birds compare to L.A. pigeons.
No, today’s calamities don't compare to the Great Depression or even to the agricultural troubles of the 1980s.
Compared to...
当使用过去分词形式的compared引出一个从句或短语时,介词to或with都是可以的,只是近期使用to更多一些:
This was a modest sum compared to what other people spent.
Compared to physics and astronomy, cosmology is a young science.
However, compared with the USA and Japan, Europe contains a group of separate nation states.
Comparable, comparison
Comparable是否与to或with搭配,也是同上一段讨论一样,两个介词都可以,当下更多使用to来搭配:
We find ourselves in a situation comparable to mediaeval times.
Social mobility is, in fact, comparable with most countries in Europe.
Comparison作为compare对应的名词可以跟着with或to:
Poussin’s approach bears closest comparison to Michelangelo’s.
Prices for real estate in Tbilisi cannot stand comparison with Western capitals or indeed Moscow.
短语in comparison to要比in comparison with更为常见,但by comparison with的使用率却高于by comparison to:
The film is utterly benign in comparison to some of the more violent movies of today.
The standard is pitiable in comparison with other countries.
By comparison with North Sea oil production, it is a drop in the ocean.
从本质上说,介词with和to跟在compare, comparable和comparison后面都是可以的,在你选择介词的时候,可以查看一下句子适用的地区和上下文语法。
Different from, than, to?
短语different from, different than, different to之间是否有什么区别,而是否这几种表达都是“正确”的呢?
在实际应用中,different from目前英式和美式英语中最常见的用法:
We want to demonstrate that this government is different from previous governments. (英式英语)
This part is totally different from anything else that he's done. (美式英语)
而短语different than主要用于美式英语中:
Teenagers certainly want to look different than their parents.
最后,different to在英式英语中的使用较美式英语中更为普遍:
In this respect the Royal Academy is no different to any other major museum.
有些人批评说different than的用法是不正确的,但这种观点也没有实际的正当理由。这三种表达方式之间没有太大差别,并且都被很多知名的作者使用过。
英语语法:短语be aware of,be blind to的用法

例句:Families must be made aware of field trips and give permission for their children to participate. (2015年6月四级)

结构分析:Families是主语, must be made aware of 是谓语1,field trips是宾语1, and连接词, give是谓语2, permission是宾语2, for their children to participate是状语。
