词组 anticipate
释义 1.anticipate 和 expect 意思略有不同。anticipate 指可喜的事,有“盼望”的意思,expect 不一定指可喜的事,如可以说 We anticipate his arrival,不可说 We anticipate his death,但可以说 We expect his arrival 和 We expect his death。
就结构讲,anticipate 和 expect 后面都可以接以 that 引导的从句,如可以说 We expect that this will happen 和 We anticipate that this will happen。但 expect 后面可以接宾语和不定式,anticipate 却不可以,如可以说 We expect this to happen,却不可说 We anticipate this to happen。
anticipate 和 expect 还有一点不同:expect 后面接不定式,anticipate 后面接动名词,如 I expect to read the book with great interest 和 I anticipate reading the book with great interest。

2.有时 anticipate 含有“有所准备”的意思。例如:She anticipated our arrival by cooking a good dinner.
随便看
