1)Suggest+ 名词/代词或suggest+名词/代词to+人,但不能说suggest sb sth ,即不能加双宾做宾语
eg: We suggest him the plan (Χ)
We suggest the plan to him(√)
2)suggest+doing sth
e.g. (1)I suggested going home.
(2)The coach suggested having another match.
注意:suggest 不可以加不定式,所以上面的句子不可以这样写:
He suggested to go out for a walk.(Χ)
eg: He suggested that you should go there tomorrow.
=He suggested you go there tomorrow.
注意,不可以这样说:He suggested you to go there tomorrow.也就是说suggest不可以加不定式的复合结构。
4)it is suggested that +主语+(should )do sth
e.g.: It is suggested that the work (should) be finished at once.
注意:suggestion做主语时,其后的表语从句也用这个结构即:
The suggestion is that +主语+should +do sth
eg: His suggestion is that I should leave for Beijing immediately.
5)suggest表示“提出(某种看法)”、“暗示”“表明”时,从句用真实(也就是陈述)语气。课文中的句子里的suggest就是作“提出(某种看法)”解释,因此用的是陈述语气,而不是虚拟语气。
e.g. His silence suggested that he agreed with my decision.
他的沉默暗示他同意我的决定。
suggest的用法及使用错点
错点一 误用不定式作宾语
要表示汉语的“建议做某事”,英语通常用 suggest doing sth,而不能用 suggest to do sth。如:
他建议坐飞机去,可我认为这样花费太大。
正:He suggested going by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.
误:He suggested to go by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.
汤姆建议把房子卖了,但是安表示反对。
正:Tom suggested selling the house but Ann was against it.
正:Tom suggested to sell the house but Ann was against it.
错点二 误接不定式的'复合结构作宾语
汉语通常说“建议某人做某事”,但英语习惯上不能说 suggest sb to do sth,而说suggest sb’s [sb]doing sth。也就是说,suggest 后不仅不接不定式,而且也不接不定式的复合结构。如:
他建议我们早点动身。
正:He suggested that we leave earlier.
suggest的名词 误:He suggested us to leave earlier.
当然,我们也可以用后接 that 从句的形式来表达此意思(注意谓语用 “should+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气形式)。如:
I suggest that we (should) have lunch right now. 我建议我们现在就吃午饭。
He suggests that we should all go to see the film. 他建议我们都去看电影。
比较以下同义表达:
他建议他们在没有听到事实真相之前什么都别说。
正:He suggested (should) not saying anything till they heard the facts.
正:He suggested saying nothing about it till they heard the facts.
正:He suggested that they shouldn’t say anything till they heard the facts.
错点三 混用其后宾语从句的语气
suggest 后接宾语从句时,从谓语既可用陈述语气,也可用虚拟语气,其区别与 suggest所表示的意思有关:
1. 若suggest 表示“建议”,则其后接的 that 从句谓语通常用“(should)+动词原形”这样的虚拟语气形式。如:
I suggested that she should go home. 我建议她回家去。
She suggested that I (should) be the leader. 她提议由我来做领导人。
2. 若suggest 表示“暗示”“意指”“表明”等义,则其后接的 that 从句要用陈述语气。如:
What he said suggested that he was a cheat. 他说的话表明他是个骗子。
Are you suggesting that I’m not suited for the job? 你的意思是说我不适合做这工作?
