hesitate to do與hesitate about doing這兩種表達(dá)方式結(jié)構(gòu)不同，但是意思一樣。 She seems to hesitate to answer.She seems to hesitate about answering.
v.(動(dòng)詞)hesitate的基本意思是“猶豫”“躊躇 ”,指在決定說(shuō)做或選擇某事前的暫停或其他猶豫不決的表現(xiàn),也可譯為“停了一會(huì)”“停頓”或“說(shuō)話吞吞吐吐”,引申可表示“不情愿”。
hesitate是不及物動(dòng)詞,其后接about, at或in,表示對(duì)某事猶豫不決；后接between,再接由and連接的并列結(jié)構(gòu),表示在兩者間猶豫不決。
hesitate作“不情愿”解時(shí),可接動(dòng)詞不定式。
