Dare, meaning have the courage to do something, can also be used in two ways:
Dare的意思是“有勇氣做某事”,它也有兩種用法:
dare 作實(shí)義動(dòng)詞
* as an ordinary verb followed by an infinitive with to, with s in the third person singularand with questions and negatives formed with do:
作為實(shí)義動(dòng)詞時(shí),接帶to的不定式,第三人稱單數(shù)作主語(yǔ)時(shí)加s,疑問(wèn)句和否定句用do來(lái)構(gòu)成:
He never dares to criticise her for wasting money and she doesn’t dare to interrupt him when he’s working.
他從不敢批評(píng)她浪費(fèi)錢(qián),而她不敢打擾他工作。
dare 作情態(tài)動(dòng)詞
* as a modal auxiliary verb followed by an infinitive without to, with no third person singular s and with questions and negatives without do:
作為情態(tài)助動(dòng)詞時(shí),接不帶to的不定式,第三人稱單數(shù)作主語(yǔ)時(shí)不加s,疑問(wèn)句和否定句不需要用do來(lái)構(gòu)成:
Dare she tell him what she thinks about him? She daren’t say anything. He will only shout at her. "How dare you speak to me like that?" he will say.
她敢告訴他她對(duì)他的想法嗎?她什么也不敢說(shuō)。他只會(huì)對(duì)著她咆哮:“你怎敢那樣對(duì)我說(shuō)話?”他肯定會(huì)這么說(shuō)。
