1. interesting 表示使人感興趣,interested 表示某人自己本身感興趣。如:
The story is very interesting, so all the children are interested in it. 這個(gè)故事很有趣,所以所有的孩子都對(duì)它感興趣。
2. 不要認(rèn)為 interesting 一定指物,interested 一定指人。如:
Our English teacher is very interesting. 我們的英語(yǔ)教師很有趣。
I read an interested expression on his face. 我看到他臉上露出一種感興趣的表情。
3. be interested 之后可接 in doing sth 或 to do sth,含義稍有差別:接前者意為“對(duì)做某事感興趣”,接后者意為“有興趣地做某事”。如:
He is interested in becoming a painter. 他對(duì)當(dāng)畫(huà)家很感興趣(即一心想當(dāng)畫(huà)家)。
We are interested to hear your remark. 我們很有興趣想聽(tīng)聽(tīng)你的意見(jiàn)。
