v.(动词)

• admit, allow, let, permit

• • 1.admit指“允许某人进入”某场地,或加入某组织,含有勉强的意味。例如：

  • She opened the door reluctantly to admit the unwelcome visitor.她很不情愿地把门打开,让不受欢迎的客人进去了。

  • Jack was admitted to the hospital to have his tumour removed.医生收杰克住院切除肿瘤。

  • allow指“允许某人做…”,给予客体执行某任务的权力,或同意某人的要求,和permit同义。它们在许多场合中可以通用。不过两者的意思也有细微差别, allow的意思是“允许”,表示主体有权不阻止、不妨碍或默许某事进行的意思。例如：

  • Playing ball is not allowed in the park.公园内不许打球。

  • Parking is not allowed here.此处不准停车。

  • permit表示给予客体做某事的权力。例如：

  • Time does not permit me to stay longer.时间不容许我在这里多留一会。

  • let含有放任的意味。例如：

  • Tom's parents will not let him swim in the lake.汤姆的父母不让他在湖里游泳。

  • 2.permit 后可接不定式和动名词,但不可接名词从句; let不用动名词作宾语,其宾语后接动词原形。

  • 3.allow还表示客气的请求,可和let通用。例如：

  • Allow me to〔Let me〕 thank you on behalf of our factory.请允许我代表全厂职工向你致谢。

  • permit是书面语,比allow带有更庄重、正式的语言色彩,含有正面的、积极的意义,指“同意某人的要求、给予某人做…的权力”。例如：

  • The facts permit no other explanations.这些事实不容许作其他解释。

  • let 是口头语。例如：

  • We won't let such a thing happen again.我们绝不允许再发生这样的事。

• admit of, allow of, permit of

• • 这组短语都可以表示“容许,留有…的余地”,多用于否定句,有时也可用于肯定句,三者常可互换,但admit of和permit of的主语多为物质或抽象名词,而allow of的主语间或可以是人。例如：

  • The matter admits of no delay.这事不容耽搁。

  • Your fault doesn't permit of any excuse.你的过失不容争辩。

  • You allow of no chance.你没有机会了。

• admit, acknowledge, confess, own

• • 这四个词都有“公开承认”的意思。其区别是：

  • 1.acknowledge和admit所承认的是不对的或不光彩的事实; confess指承认“错误及罪行”; own承认的不一定是“错误及罪行”,只是一般地表明自己的感觉及处境。例如:

  • He acknowledged that he was your inferior.他承认他不及你。

  • Did he admit to stealing it?他承认是他偷的吗?

  • He confessed where he had hidden the money.他供出了他藏钱的地方。

  • 2.acknowledge强调在一定压力下承认, admit强调勉强承认。例如:

  • Dan acknowledged himself as criminal.达恩承认自己是罪人。

  • I admit to a natural fear.我承认生来胆小。

  • 3.acknowledge所承认的一般是隐蔽的, admit, confess和own所承认的不一定是隐蔽的。例如:

  • Jane acknowledged using her father's motor-car.珍妮承认用了她父亲的摩托车。

  • They admitted my statement to be reasonable.他们承认我的陈述有道理。

  • The police have confessed themselves completely puzzled by this strange crime.警方承认他们完全被这桩奇特的罪案搞糊涂了。

  • 4.confess语气上较强,属正式语体; own则不如confess正式。

  • 5.这四个词用作及物动词时,都可接简单宾语或复合宾语,除own外,其他词均可接动名词。admit, confess和own用作不及物动词都可与介词to搭配,其后均可接动名词。例如:

  • They acknowledged having been defeated.他们认输了。

  • He confessed taking part in a plot to free the prisoner.他供认自己参与了企图营救那个囚犯的密谋。

  • She admitted having done wrong.她承认自己做错了。

• admit, receive, take

• • 这三个词都有“接受”的意思。其区别是：

  • receive主要表示接到或收到,而不含采取主动或积极行动的意思; admit强调接纳,暗示接纳者采取允许、宽容的态度或作出让步; take是日常用词,指不带有主观意愿地收下。

• 下面三句意思相同：

• • The boy admitted stealing the jewels.

  • The boy admitted to stealing the jewels.

  • The boy admitted that he had stolen the jewels.

  • 男孩承认偷了珠宝。

• 下面两句话意思不同：

• • But Susan doesn't admit that she has done anything wrong.

  • 可苏珊不承认她做错过什么事。

  • But Susan doesn't admit doing anything wrong.

  • 可苏珊不承认有什么事做错过。

• accept，receive，admit，take

• • 这些动词均有“接受、接纳”之意。

  • accept强调主动地或自愿地接受，或者说，经过考虑后同意接受。

  • receive着重仅仅接到或收到这一结论或事实，而不含采取主动或积极行动的意思。

  • admit作“接受”讲时，强调准许或批准。

  • take与receive同意，是receive的日常用法，侧重不带主观意愿地收下或接受。

• acknowledge，admit，confess，recognize，concede

• • 这些动词均含“承认”之意。

  • acknowledge通常指公开承认某事的真实情况或自己的过错。

  • admit强调因外力或良心驱使或经判断而明确承认，多含不情愿或被迫意味。

  • confess语气较强，着重承认自己意识到的错误或罪行，含坦白忏悔的意味。

  • recognize作“承认”解时，系书面用词，主要指合法的或外交上的承认，也指公认。

  • concede指在事实与证据面前勉强或不得不承认。
