suggest 是个及物动词,后面可以跟名词、代词、动名词或从句作它的宾语。各种试题对 suggest 的考查通常涉及到它的非谓语动词形式、宾语从句及宾语从句的虚拟语气等方面。
考点一、 suggest 作“间接表明;建议;使想起”解时,后面可以跟名词、代词或动名词做宾语
① suggest sth.表明,建议
That girl's sun-tanned face suggests excellent health.
那个姑娘被太阳晒黑了的脸表明她身体非常健康。
Mr. Smith suggested a way out of the difficulty to her.
史密斯先生向她提出了一个克服困难的办法。
② suggest doing sth
Tom suggested selling the house but Ann was against it.汤姆建议把房子卖了,但安不同意。
错点一 误用不定式作宾语
要表示汉语的“建议做某事”,英语通常用 suggest doing sth,而不能用 suggest to do sth。如:
他建议坐飞机去,可我认为这样花费太大。
正:He suggested going by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.
误:He suggested to go by plane, but I thought it would cost too much.
③ suggest sb’s doing sth
I have written him a letter and suggested his sending it to the Ministry of Culture.
我给他写了一封信,并建议他把它寄给文化部。
④ suggest sth to sb(错误:suggest sb to do或suggest sb sth)
考点二、 suggest后面的宾语从句要不要用虚拟语气,由它的意思决定: 作“建议”解,宾语从句中的谓语动词用虚拟语气,即谓语动词用“( should )动词原形”。
① Almost all his friends suggested that he visit Mr. Johnson at once.
② ----The experiment has failed!
----I suggest you try again.
句式一、 It's suggested that…… (有人建议……)例如:
① It's suggested that we ( should ) put on a short play at the party.
有人建议我们在晚会上演一个短剧。
② It has been suggested that Robert should go to Chicago and try to find a job there. 有人建议罗伯特到芝加哥去,设法在那里找个工作。
句式二、 What ( All that ) sb. suggests is that…… (某人建议的是……)
① What I suggest is that we visit a class right away.
我的建议是我们马上去听课。
② What she suggested was that the clinic should make better use of those herbs. 她建议医疗站更好地利用那些草药。
suggest 作“表明、说明、暗示、指出”解,后面的that 宾语从句的谓语动词用陈述语气。
① He often came to the theater, but his attitude suggested he was not really interested in the play.
② Jane's pale face suggested that she was ill, and her parents suggested that she have a medical examination.
第一个 suggested 作“表明、说明”解,所以其后的宾语从句的谓语动词用陈述语气;第二个 suggested 的意思是“建议”,所以其后的宾语从句的谓语动词用虚拟语气,其中的 should 被省略了。
考点三、名词 suggestion 的用法与其词根动词用法相似。
按英语习惯,suggest的派生名词suggestion也具有与其词根动词相似的用法,suggestion 作“建议”解,后面跟同位语从句时,以及 suggestion 用作主语,后面跟表语从句时,从句中的谓语动词均用虚拟语气。
① My suggestion is that the work should be started at once.我的建议是立即动工。
② The monitor's suggestion that she should come another day has not been accepted. 班长提出的她改天来的建议还是没有被接受。
