worth wothy worthwhile
通过短语和句子来理解可能会好一点,真正的词语也只有用在句子里才有意义。
worth:1.作表语,有某种价值,Our house is worth 60000 pounds.
2.be worth doing,值得做某事,The book is worth reading.
worthy:1.worthy of sth/to do sth值得做某事,Her achievements are worthy of the highest praise.
2.作定语,值得尊重和考虑的,a worthy course 崇高的事业,
3.worthy of sb/sth ,某人的典型,适合于某事物,
worthwhile:adj值得的,值得花时间、钱或精力的,It is worthwhile taking the trouble to explain a job fully to new employees.
这还真不太好解释。
worth是一个只能作表语的形容词,意思为“有……价值的”、“值得……的”。后接名词、接动名词的主动形式,表示“某件东西是值得怎么样”,或者“某件东西是值得什么价值的”。
worthwhile在这个地方是作定语的。表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花时间、金钱或努力去做。后面可接动名词或动词不定式,表示“某件事情是值得做的”。
第一句里see if it might be worthwhile buying it。句首的it是指句末“buying it"这件事情,而最后一个it代指的是“house”。也可以说成see if it might be worthwhile to buy it(the house)
第二句里see if it might be worth buying,这句里的it就是代指house。
这三个词都是形容词,都有“值得的”的意思,但用法或搭配关系不同。
1. worth是一个只能作表语的形容词,意思为“值……的”、“相当于……的价值的”、“有……价值的”、“值得……的”。后接名词、接动名词的主动形式。例如:
This second-hand car is worth $2000 at the most.
The exhibition is worth a visit/visiting.
It’s not worth getting angry with him.
The question is not worth discussing again and again.
2. worthy可作表语,也可作定语。作定语时意思为“有价值的”、“值得尊敬的”、“应受到赏识的”;用作表语时意思为“值得……的”、“应得到……的”,其后接of sth.,也可以后接to do sth.,例如:
①That is worthy of note. 那件事值得注意。
②This phenomenon is worthy of being studied. 这种现象值得研究。
③This problem is worthy to be considered. 这个问题值得考虑。
④The film is worthy to be seen again. 这部电影值得再看一遍。
⑤This is a worthy English-Chinese dictionary. 这是一本有价值的英汉词典。
⑥This is a worthy article. 这是一篇值得一看的文章。
⑦He said he was not worthy to accept such honour
⑧The school has educated many worthy young people.
⑨The question is not worthy to be discussed again and again.
作后置定语时,必须用“worthy of +名词”结构。例如:
⑩There is nothing worthy of mention. 没有值得一提的事情。
②This is behavior worthy of praise. 这是值得称赞的行为。
③ Something find and rare --- something worthy of the honor of being owned by Jim.
(S3 Unit 10 P84)
注:“worthy of+动名词”与“worth+动名词”在形式上完全不同:worthy of后面接被动式的动名词;而worth后面接主动式的动名词,虽然在形式上是主动的,但其意义仍然是被动的。试比较:
The second-hand house is worthy of being bought. = The second-hand house is worth buying.
3. worthwhile与worthy一样,既可作表语,又可作定语。表示某事因重要、有趣或受益大而值得花时间、金钱或努力去做,一般做“值得的”、“值得做的”、“有意义的”解。用作表语时,可接动名词或动词不定式。例如:
The Summer Palace is worthwhile going / to go to have a visit.
Helping old people is a worthwhile activity.
Thank you for your worthwhile suggestion.
I really feel I am doing something worthwhile and I am having a great time doing it.
