词组 bother
释义

■ bother

这个单词,无论作为及物或不及物动词(第二类兼第四类)或是名词,基本上都是“麻烦”的意思,但是用法和随之而来的含义有些值得注意之处:

1) 作为及物动词,直接宾语是人,意义很简单明确,就是“干扰”、“麻烦”。

  • Does my smoking bother you?我吸烟打扰您吗?
  • Sorry to bother you.对不起,打扰您一下。
  • He always bothers me for money.他老是缠着我要钱。
  • What bothers you?您有什么烦心事儿呀?
  • She can do what she likes, it doesn't bother me.她爱做什么就做什么,我不介意。

2) bother oneself to inf., bother oneself + -ing, bother oneself about + -ing 都是“麻烦自己去做某事”,通常用否定(即“懒得去做某事”)。

  • He doesn't bother himself to cook. / He doesn't bother himself cooking. / He doesn't bother himself about cooking.他懒得做烧饭这件麻烦事。

注意:在这里,否定的范围一直贯彻到句末,不能误解为“做某事不觉麻烦”。

3) bother oneself to inf., bother oneself + -ing 与 bother oneself about + -ing 三个否定语态用法,oneself 都可以省略。

  • I didn't bother to get washed as I knew I would be working on the farm.我知道我的工作地点是农场,也就懒得洗刷一番了。
  • No one bothered to visit him / No one bothered visiting him / No one bothered about visiting him.谁都懒得去探望他。
