介词 of 用法注意

1. 表示所有关系,用以构成名词的所有格,如the gate of the school(校门),the secret of success(成功的秘密),等。

注意以下正误表达:

正:He is a friend of my father. 他是我父亲的一位朋友。

正:He is a friend of my father’s. 他是我父亲的一位朋友。

正:He is a friend of mine. 他是我的一位朋友。

误:He is a friend of me.

以下表达是错误的:

误:What’s the name of you?(改为…your name)

误:Do you know the father of him?(改为…his father)

误:I will show the books of me.(改为…my books)

但是以下表达却是对的(of表示动宾关系):

正:I hate the sight of him. 我讨厌看到他。

正:His criticism of her is serious. 他对她的批评是严肃 的。

2. 与 age, shape, size, colour, height, design, weight 等名词连用,可用作表语或定语;其中的介词 of 有时可省略。如:

The two boys are (of) the same height. 这两个男孩一样高。

Here is a piece of wood (of) the right size. 这有一块木头,其大小刚好适合。

When I was (of) your age, I lived in the country. 我像你这个年纪的时候,我住在乡下。

3. 与某些名词(如help, value, interest, importance等)连用,相当于形容词,可用作定语或表语。如:

It’s not of much value. 这没有多大价值。

This subject is of great interest to me. 这门学科对我来说是很有趣的。

The dictionary is of much help to the students. 这本字典对学生帮助很大。

4. 与 hear, talk, know, speak 等动词连用,表示一种间接性,大意为“涉及到”。如:

I’ve never heard of anyone doing a thing like that. 我从未听说有人做过那种事。

Mary is talking of looking for another job. 玛丽说起要另找一份工作。

I don’t know the writer, but I know of him. 我不认识这个作家,但我听说过他。

People spoke of their fear as the flood waters rose. 人们说起看到洪水上涨时的恐惧。
