fit(ting) 的用法及固定搭配

fit(ting)

1.I am fit to eat the meat和The meat is fit to eat都可以说。第二句改作The meat is fit to be eaten也可以。The young man is now fit to ride里的fit to ride是“(身体好或受过训练)可以骑马的”,The horse is now fit to ride里的fit to ride是“可以被骑的”。

注意下面各句里末尾的介词不可删去:

  • The weather is not fit to go out in.
  • The room is now fit to store things in.
  • Twenty-five is an age fit to get married at.
  • This paper is hardly fit to write an important letter on.

2.think fit to...(不定式)作“把…认为可行而果然…”解,假使是“把…认为可行而其实并不…”则不可用这语,如不可说He thought fit to do it, but did not do it。又这语所说的事往往指“不明智的”或“不该的”,有“偏要…”的意思。例如:In spite of my advice, he thought fit to make friends with that man.

see fit to...(不定式)=think fit to...(不定式),但不及think fit to...(不定式)普通。

3.下面各句里的fit+不定式是口语用法:

  • She cried fit to break her heart.
  • He trembled fit to drop.
  • I laughed fit to die.
  • The little boy sang a comic song fit to make you forget your worries.

4.fit有时有双宾语。例如:The authorities fitted the explorer a fleet.

5.It is fit that the story should be told in the first person不及It is fitting that...普通。should可以省去。
