国内出版的书认为可以说 sb is hurt to do sth:
He was hurt to find that few had voted for him.他发现很少有人投他的票.感到痛苦。
She was hurt to find that no one admired her performance. 她发现无人赞赏她的表演而感到伤心。
但在原版词典中没有找到类似的例句,同时听老师说,现在已不这样用了。
请专家老师判断一下,在现代英语中,sb is hurt to do sth的用法符合英语习惯吗?
应该说严格按语法,似乎没有这么用的。但在口语里,母语的人肯定有这么用的。语料库有几个类似的句子,我选了两个供你参考:
1. I mean, at first I was hurt to see you with someone else, but after all I cancelled the date.
2.I was hurt to hear that in some way that I had hurt it.
如果是正式文体或考试,还是应该避免为好。
