  【知识点讲解】

  1 While John Gilbert was in hospital, he asked his doctor to tell him whether his operation had been successful, but the doctor refused to do so.

  当约翰.吉尔伯特住院的时候,他问医生他的手术是否成功,但医生拒绝告诉他。

  ask for 请求, 要求

  I have the right to ask for an explanation.

  我有权要求一个解释。

  2 When he was alone, he telephoned the hospital exchange and asked for Doctor Millington.

  当房里只剩他一个人时,他挂通了医院的交换台,要求与米灵顿医生讲话。

  区别lonely, alone,

  这两个形容词均有“孤单的,寂寞的”之意。lonely: 强调孤独感,含“渴望和他人在一起”的意味。alone: 普通用词,指独自一人的状态,有时含孤寂之意。

  alone是表语形容词,因此能说The man is alone,不能说an alone man。也不能说very alone,只能说much alone或very much alone,且后者比前者普遍。

  alone指“独自的”,lonely指“寂寞的”,一个人也许alone但并不lonely(虽自己一人,但不寂寞),或是虽不alone而感觉lonely(虽不是自己一个人,却还是寂寞)。有时lonely还指“不大有人到的”,如a lonely house。

  I was alone in the classroom.

  我独自在教室里。

  After tea I wandered alone about the town.

  吃过下午茶,我独自在城里漫步。

  inquire for 求见, 询问, 要找 inquire into 调查, 查问, 探究 inquire of 探问
