 ♣ 下面各组中的句子或短语意思不同：
　
　
　
　
　
　
　

1. 我非常渴望见你。
　［误］ I am looking forward to see you.
　［正］ I am looking forward to seeing you.
　［析］ look forward to中的to是介词，不是动词不定式符号。
2. 他看上去很高兴。
　［误］ He looks happily.
　［误］ He is looking happy.
　［正］ He looks happy.
　［析］ look用作系动词时其后不跟副词，并且不用于进行体。
3. 他看起来很英俊。
　［误］ He is looked handsome.
　［正］ He looks handsome.
　［析］ look用作系动词时不用于被动结构。
4. 他看起来像只猴子。

　［正］ He looks a monkey.
　［析］ look用作系动词时可跟as if引导的从句，或to be n./adj.结构， to be有时可省略，但不跟as短语。

　关于look at sth结构，有两种分析方法，一是把look at视为及物动词， sth是其宾语；二是把look at视为介词，而把sth看作是介词at的宾语。笔者倾向第一种分析，因为其中的sth常可转换为被动句的主语。
