mind 用法小结
mind是兼类词,既可用作动词,又可用作名词。
(一)mind用作动词
1、意为“当心、注意、留心”,后跟名词或从句,也可单独使用。
Would you please mind your intonation when you speak.?
请你说话时注意语调,好吗?
2、意为“介意、在乎”,主要用于疑问句、否定句或条件句中,后接名词、动名词或从句。
I really don’t mind a joke, but this is going too far.
我真的并不介意开玩笑,但这玩笑太过分了。
Do you mind my smoking here?
你介意我抽烟吗?
Do you mind if I copy your homework?
我抄你家庭作业,你介意吗?
——I’m sorry I step on your foot.
对不起,我踩了你的脚。
——Never mind.
不要紧。
此时常见的句式有:
①“Would/Do you mind doing something?”意为“劳驾,……好吗?”或“请问,(你)可否……?”常用来表示委婉、客气的请求。如:
Would you mind taking the new books to the classroom?
劳驾,把书拿到教室好吗?
② “Would/Do you mind + 人称代词宾格或形容词性物主代词 + doing something?” 意为“某人做某事,你介意吗?”。如:
Do you mind my closing the window?
我把窗户关上,你介意吗?
需要注意的是:
①“Would you mind...?” 和“Do you mind...?”两种句式表达相同的意思,只是前者比后者的语气显得更客气、更委婉一些。
②对上述问句,需要使用一些客气、委婉的方式作反意回答。
如果表示不反对或不介意,常用“No, not at all./Of course not./Certainly not./No, do it please. /No, please do./No, go ahead.”等作答。如:
——Do you mind offering me some hot water?
劳驾,提供点热水给我好吗?
——No, not at all.
没问题。
如果表示介意、不同意或不赞成某人做某事,回答时一般不要说“Yes, I mind”,这种回答很不客气,不符合英美人的表达习惯。通常用“Sorry, but I do.”或“Sorry./I’m sorry./I wish you wouldn’t, you’d better not.”,然后最好再陈述某种表示拒绝或反对的理由。如:
——Do you mind if I smoke here?
我在这里吸烟可以吗?
——Sorry, but I do. 对不起,你不能。
(二)mind用作名词,意为“脑子、想法”。常见的短语有:
①change one’s mind 改变主意
Nothing can change my mind.
什么也不能改变我的想法。
②make up one’s mind作出决定
We all have made up our minds to work in the west of China.
我们都已经决定到中国西部去工作。
③keep...in mind记住……
He has kept the experience in mind.
他已经记住这次经历。
