v.动词
一周前我给她回了信。

❌ I answered her letter for a week.

✔️ I answered her letter a week ago.

✔️ It is a week since I answered her letter.

answer是瞬间动词,不表示持续动作,不可与表示一段时间的状语连用。


v.动词
answer for, answer to

1.这两个短语都可表示“符合…需要”,其区别是:

接needs, wishes, hopes, description等词时用answer to; 而接purpose时则只能用answer for。

2.这两个短语都可表示“负责”,其区别是:

answer for表示对事负责; 而answer to则表示对人负责。试比较:

I will answer for him.他的事情由我负责。
I will answer to him.我将对他负责。answer sth, answer to sth

及物动词和“不及物动词+to”,这里有个语言史的问题,即有些动词过去带to而现在不带,而有些动词过去不带to而现在带,如listen; 还有些动词两者都能用,如approach。不过不带to的情况更普遍。answer的情况是用于“回答,答复”等直义时一般用作及物动词,即不带to。例如:

Answer my question, please.请回答我的问题。

用于“符合,适合”等转义时,两种用法均可,不过不带to时直接性较强。例如:

This dictionary answers to my needs.这本词典符合我的需要。to answer, be an answer to

英语中系动词与动作动词相比,其语气往往显得较弱,所以下面两个句子,第一个显然更常用。

她脸上的表情就足以回答我的问题了。

Her facial expression alone answered my question.

Her facial expression alone was an an- swer to my question.

answer, reply, respond

这三个词意思相近,常可通用。例如:

I don't know what to answer〔reply, respond〕.我不知道该怎么回答。

它们之间的区别是:

1.词源不同, answer来自古英语; reply来自古法语; respond来自拉丁语。

2.answer和reply可指口头、书面或行动上的回答,而respond则偏重于用行动回答或响应。

3.answer既可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词,还可用作名词; 而reply通常只用作不及物动词,但其后可接直接引语或that引导的宾语从句,用作及物动词时,宾语只能是所说的话; respond既可用作及物动词也可用作不及物动词,其名词形式是response。

4.answer接letter, question等词时用作及物动词,即不加to,而reply和respond只能用作不及物动词,即必须加to。

5.answer可接双直宾语,而reply和respond则不能。

6.answer后可接人或物; reply的对象一般不能是人,而只能是物。

7.answer多指对问题的回答; reply一般用于对某一陈述或主张的回答,特别是对相反意见、议论等的答复; 而respond通常指对号召、职责等作出响应或反应。

8.answer后接a letter时只指复信表示收到来信; 而reply to a letter则指要答复来信中所提出的全部问题或提请注意的各点。

9.作“给出答案”解时只能用answer,不能用reply和respond。

10.表示“作出相应反应”,可用answer和respond,不能用reply。

11.answer最普通,最常用; 而reply和respond都是正式用语,口语中少用。


n.名词
answer, reply

这两个词的共同意思是“回答,答复”,都可用作名词或动词。其区别在于:

1.answer主要指用语言文字回答问题、指责或争论,也可能是以行动满足要求或应付情况; reply则主要指用语言文字给予回答,进行解释等,也可指用行动回答。

2.answer作为名词时,其后常接介词to; reply作为名词时,其后往往接介词to或者for。例如:

The Western answer to this move was the use of plane to supply food.西方对这一建议的答复是用飞机提供食品。
They gave her a reply for her claim.他们对她的要求做了答复。

3.answer是普通用语,用得比较广泛; reply则较为正式。

answer,reply,respond,retort,return

这些动词均有“回答”之意。

answer常用词,指用书面、口头或行动对他人的请求、询问、质问等作出回答或反应。

reply较正式用词,较少用于口语。侧重经过考虑的较正式答复。

respond正式用词,指即刻的,以口头或行动对外来的号召、请求或刺激等作出回答或响应。

retort指对不同意见、批评或控诉作出迅速、有力的回答,即“反驳”。

return正式用词,从本义“归来,回去”引申作“回答、答辨”讲时,含反驳或反唇相讥之意。

在古代西方的法庭上,宣誓扮演着重要的角色。证人作证、原告被告的申辩都要进行宣誓。在现代西方法庭上我们依然还能看到证人在作证之前都要象征性地宣誓。英语单词answer的来源就跟这种宣誓行为有关。单词answer中的an与词根anti对于、against有关,swer与单词swear宣誓有关。所以,它的字面意思就是“经过宣誓对指控做出答辩”。它本是一个严肃的法律术语,但在长期的使用过程中,逐渐丧失其法律含义,变成了“答复、回答”等含义。

v.动词

answer用作动词的基本意思是“回答,答复”,可以用言语回答,也可以用文字回答,还可以用行动回答,视宾语的不同可灵活翻译。

answer用作及物动词时,可接人、物或that从句作宾语,也可接双宾语两个宾语都是直接宾语,作“符合,满足”解时宾语主要是need, hope, purpose等抽象名词。

answer用作不及物动词时主要表示“回答,负责,保证,成功,奏效,适应,符合”。

answer表示用语言、文字或行动对问题进行回答,是一最常用词; 用于转义表示“符合,适应”等义时,是较正式的用法; answer to the name则是口语用法。

answer for表示“受责备”时可用于被动结构,表示“许诺,答应别人”时也常用于被动结构,表示其他意思时均常用于一般时态。作“对…负有责任”解时,通常不用于进行体。


n.名词

answer用作可数名词时主要表示用口头或书面作出的“回答,答复,答辩”或表示最初不知道而经过思考之后才得出的“答案,解答”。

answer前一般须有冠词、数词或其他能修饰可数名词的限定词语,其后可接表示“针对…的”介词短语to sth to不可换成表示所有关系的of或表示目的的for等介词。

know all the answers意为“自以为精通一切”。

answertothe letter,answertothe question,answerforthe purpose等常用格式中,习惯将to或for等介词省略掉,但是注意reply to the letter中的to不可以省略;

answer有时指“答复……的内容”。有时,answer指“报告收到”,reply指“答复……的内容”。I have your letter, but as I am very busy, I cannot answer it at present.句中的主语已经在回复信了,但还说没有办法answer。I answered your letter by sending a postcard last Monday and have since been waiting for time to reply to it.

同reply比较,answer有时指“中肯的答复”。

Your reply is not an answer.你的回答不中肯。

answered有时指“把……作为答复”。

He answered her not a word.他连一个词都没有回复她。

answer后可接that从句或另接宾语。He answered that he could not go.他回复说自己去不了了。

He answered me that he would not go.他回复我说他去不了了。

在商业回信的开头,常用“In answer to your letter …”的格式。
