什么是 “be affected to”?
在标准英语中,“be affected to + 名词/动名词” 并不是一个常见或自然的搭配。很多人误以为它可以表示“被影响去做某事”,但实际上这是对动词 affect 的误用。
常见误解
- ❌ 错误用法:He was affected to cry.
- ✅ 正确表达:He was moved to tears. 或 He was so sad that he cried.
动词 affect 通常作及物动词,意为“影响”,如:The weather affected our plans.
正确相关表达
- Be inclined to do something:倾向于做某事
- Be moved to do something:被感动去做某事
- Be compelled to do something:被迫做某事
小贴士:Affect vs. Effect
Affect(动词):影响
Effect(名词):效果;(动词)实现、引起(较正式)
例句:
- The news affected her deeply.
- The new policy had a positive effect.
