英语词汇用法正误辨析：admit 正误用法辨析

◆他承认偷了钱。

误：He admitted to have stolen the money.

正：He admitted having stolen the money.

析：admit(承认)后通常要接动名词作宾语，而不接不定式。

◆他承认她做得很好。

误：He admitted her to do it well.

正：He admitted that she did it well.

析：admit(承认)可以接带不定式的复合结构, 但在通常情况下, 这个不定式是 to be：We all admit him to be foolish.(我们都认为他很蠢)。

◆十八岁以下的孩子不能看此电影。

误：Children under 18 are not admitted to see the film.

正：Children under 18 are not admitted to the film.

析：误句错在使用了 admit(允许) sb to do sth 这一句式的被动 式，因为在通常情况下，admit 不带不定式的复合结构( 除非 这个不定式为 to be)。请注意正句中介词 to 的使用, 又如： This ticket admits you to one lecture.(凭此票可听一次讲 座)。/ He was admitted to the Party.(他被接受入党)。

◆他打开门让我进了屋。

误：He opened the door and admitted me to enter into the house.

正：He opened the door and admitted me into the house.

析：因 admit(让...进入)已含有动态意味, 所以一般不与 enter, go in 之类的词连用。
