|become interested in;對……感興趣
"be interested in"是英語中表示"對……感興趣"的常用表達方式,其核心含義和用法可通過以下三個層面解析:
語義構成與語法結構
該短語由系動詞"be"、形容詞"interested"和介詞"in"構成,整體作為謂語使用。根據《牛津高階英語詞典》的解釋,"interested"在此表示"showing curiosity or concern about something"(對某事表現出好奇或關注)。其基本結構為:主語 + be動詞 + interested + in + 名詞/動名詞,例如:"She is interested in quantum physics"(她對量子物理感興趣)。
語用功能與語境應用
劍橋英語語料庫研究顯示,該短語具有三種典型使用場景:
根據《朗文當代英語語法》,當後接動詞時需使用動名詞形式(-ing),這是區别于"interest"作動詞用法的重要特征。
權威語料庫實證分析
《柯林斯英語詞典》基于語料統計指出,"be interested in"在學術寫作中的使用頻率比日常口語高27%,常出現在研究背景陳述和文獻綜述中。比較級形式"more/less interested in"可增強表達的精确性,如:"Recent studies show teenagers are more interested in短視頻 platforms than traditional media"。
該表達的同義轉換可參考《麥克米倫英語詞典》建議,使用"have an interest in"或"show interest in"進行替換,但需注意語義細微差别:"be interested in"強調持續狀态,而"show interest in"側重具體行為表現。
