offer 的用法及固定搭配

offer

1.offer不论用作名词或动词,后面都接不定式,如his offer to help her和He offered to help her。

2.在offer(名词)后面接不定式,那不定式所表示的动作通常属于提出offer的人。例如:He made an offer to teach me French.但有时并不这样。例如:He made me an offer to teach French at a school.

3.offer(名词或动词)to give...犯着重复的毛病,如不该说his offer to give her help和He offered to give her help,该改作his offer of help to her和He offered her help。

4.下面两句意思相同,第一句主要用在英国,第二句主要用在美国:

  • Both advice and help were offered to the young man.
  • Both advice and help were offered the young man.
