来源:网络发布时间:2011-01-25

    下面是英语六级词语辨析,育路教育网特别为您搜集整理,内容如下:

    concerned,concerning

    这两个词的词义并不相同,用法亦有异。

    Concerned是分词形容词,其意为“有关的”(involved);concerning是由分词转换而成的介词,其意为“关于”(relating to)。请看下面的例句:

    This agreement will be signed by the parties concemed.此协议将由各有关方面签署。

    They called on all departments concemed to take prompt steps to promote the development of light industry.他们要求各有关部门迅速采取措施,促进轻工业发展。

    由例句可见,concerned用作形容词解作“有关的”时,是后置定语,大都放在它所修饰的名词之后。但在verb“to be”之后而同样解作“关于”时,则要用be concerned with的形式,如:

    This book is concerned with English usage.此书是与英语惯用法有关。

    值得注意的是,concerned(亦可表示动词之意)也可解作“关心”、“担心”解,与之搭配的介词为at、about或,用作此意时,concerned也是形容词。例:

    He was deeply concerned at the news.听到这个消息时,他深为担忧。

    We are all concerned about the pollution of the environment here.对这里的环境爱到污染,我们都感到不安。

    Parents are naturally conerned for their children's safety.父母自然关心他们儿女的安全。

    下面是concerning的例句:

    This is a proposal concerning the construction of the new airport.这是关于兴建新机场的一项建议。

    Yesterday we wrote him a letter concerning the business arrangement.昨天我们就业务安排问题写了一封信给他。

    在个别场合下,concerned with可以和concerning互换使用,原因是从句which are concerned with中的which are 省略了。例如:

    We had several disputes concerning/(which are)concerned with this matter.关于此事,我们曾争论过数次。

    请注意,下列语句的区别:

    They were concerned(worried)about the matter.他们为此事而担忧。

    They were concerned(implicated)in the matter.他们参与此事。

    They were concemed (connected)with the matter.他们与此事有关。

    此外,作为特定词组,as far as I am concerned解作in my opinion;as far as sth is concerned解作concerning sth/ talking about sth.例:

    As far as I'm concerned,this plan is impractical.依我来看,这个计划不切实际。

    As far as funding is concerned,some banks have agreed to provide loans.关于资金方面,一些银行同意提供贷款。
