He said old pupils were welcome to come and visit him.

这里的be welcome to如何理解?

【答】welcome既是形容词,也是动词。判断标准如下:

1. 如果是be welcome形式,那么,welcome是形容词。

2. 如果是be welcomed形式,那么,welcome是动词。

你的句子是前者,welcome是形容词用法:You are welcome to do sth. 意思是:“你做某事是受欢迎的”,或者说“欢迎你做某事”。

关于welcome的用法,请看下面的讲解。

We welcome you to come here.这句话错了吗?

前不久,在一本教辅书上看到讲解welcome一词的用法。上面明确说,welcome一词不能接复合宾语,即不可说:welcome sb. to do sth.,而应该说Sb. is welcome to do sth.。意思是说,把welcome 用作形容词就可以接不定式。事实果真如此吗?首先,我们分析一下welcome的各种用法:

一、用作动词。welcome的意思是“欢迎”,可以表示欢迎某人,也可表示对某事物作出愉快的的反应,引申可表示“对某事物感到愉快或满意”,“乐于接受”等。

welcome是及物动词,接名词、代词或动名词作宾语,也可接以动词不定式充当补足语的复合宾语,可用于被动结构。welcome接动名词作宾语时,该动名词可加名词或代词的所有格或宾格表示其逻辑主语(不过在现实语言中较少见到)。

Please welcome our next contestant. 请欢迎我们的下一位竞赛选手。(welcome sb.)

We would welcome your views about the survey. 我们欢迎你就这项调查发表意见。(welcome sth.)

We welcome you to join us on a special tour which explores this unique Australian attraction. 我们欢迎你加入探索这处独特的澳大利亚景观的特别之旅。(welcome sb. to do sth.)

It's an open stage for the release of your talents and we warmly welcome your coming! 这是一个开放式的施展您才华的舞台,我们真诚欢迎您的加盟! (welcome doing sth.)

二、用作形容词。welcome用作形容词的意思是“受欢迎的,令人愉快的”,指心理活动表示无形的欢迎,是持续的状态,在句中可用作定语或表语。其次,welcome也可作“可随便占有的,可随便做的”解,在句中只用作表语,其后多接动词不定式或介词to引起的短语。welcome可用very修饰。

New members are always welcome.时欢迎新成员加入。(作表语)

This is welcome news.这是受欢迎的消息。(作定语)

You are welcome to come in and browse. 欢迎您光临本店随便看看。(后跟不定式表示“做某事受欢迎”)

Eat away, children; you are welcome to all you want. 吃吧, 孩子们, 尽情地吃吧。(后跟介词to,表示“可随便占有”)

You are welcome to the use of my books. 你可随意用我的书。(后跟介词to,表示“可随便使用”。等于:You are welcome to use my books.)

You are always welcome to our house. 欢迎你随时到我们家。(后跟介词to,表示“来的地点”)

三、用作名词。welcome用作名词的意思是“欢迎,迎接”,指亲切或热情的招呼、接待或招待,表示欢迎的行为,可用作可数名词,也可用作不可数名词。

If he could come, we would give him a warm welcome. 他若能来, 我们一定热烈欢迎。

Her suggestion received a rather unenthusiastic welcome. 她的建议受到冷遇。

She opened her arms wide in an gesture of welcome. 她展开双臂以示欢迎。

四、用作感叹词。welcome用作感叹词的意思是“欢迎”,是迎接时的招呼语,用于正式场合,也用于车站、码头、机场及大街上悬挂的标语牌上,或用于广告语、报纸等的标题,常与表示方向的副词或介词to连用。

Welcome to Washington.欢迎来华盛顿。

Welcome to Jinxing Education Group! 欢迎到金星教育集团来!

五、用于习惯用语。表示“没关系;不客气”: You say “You're welcome” to someone who has thanked you for something in order to acknowledge their thanks in a polite way.

Thank you for the information. — You're welcome. 谢谢你提供的信息。——不客气。

You are welcome. It was my great pleasure. 您太客气了, 这是我的莫大荣幸。

下面,是一些常见的含有welcome sb. to do sth.的句子:

Wang Ping: We welcome you to come next time.王平: 欢迎你再来!

Welcome you to take my taxi next time.欢迎你下次坐我的出租车。

We welcome you to leave your footprint here.我们欢迎你在这儿留下你的足迹。

On behalf of my company, I warmly welcome you to visit Beijing.我代表我的公司热烈欢迎你们光临北京。

Seeing is believing; we warmly welcome you to visit our plant. 眼见为实, 我们竭诚欢迎您访问我们的工厂。

We sincerely welcome you to point out our shortcomings. 不过我们也真诚地欢迎您指出我们的缺点。

We cordially welcome you to enjoy our excellent service. 我们将以优质的服务,竭诚欢迎您的到来。

We welcome you to visit and search for business opportunities. 热诚欢迎您前来参观、考察、洽谈业务。

Welcome customers all over the world to cooperate with us to build a safer world. 我们愿于世界各国同行一道为人类的安全事业贡献力量。

目前,尽管英语词典上还未出现welcome sb. to do sth.的用法,但在英美语料库中以及国内英语资料中却大量存在着。众所周知,某种新的语言现象和词语用法的出现,必定要早于任何语法书或词典。只要这种现象很普遍了,大家都已认同了,那么,建议词典编纂者们与时俱进,尽早把它们编写到辞书中去。

After he retired, he would devote himself to gardening. For him, this would be an entirely new hobby. Perhaps it would take him forty years to put his garden in order.

这里的put sth in order如何理解?(课文背景是校长即将退休,在他退休的当天正好是教书满40年,学生们为纪念他举行了一个聚会,退休后他会从事园艺)同时,我在这里也不太理解退休后从事园艺也继续40年?那得多大岁数了。

【答】put sth. in order是一个固定用法,意为“把某事/某物整理好”。put his garden in order的意思是“把他的花园整得井井有条”。又如:

Things have to be put in order here before they come.

在他们来之前。 这一切都要整理好。

All goods should be put in order on the shelf before the supermarket opens.

超级市场开门前,所有的货物都必须整齐地排列在货架上。

关于 Perhaps it would take him forty years to put his garden in order.这个句子,退休后从事园艺也继续40年,这只是一种假想,句子用了将来时,只是说明整理好花园需要40年这个情况,未必实现,人是否活到那个时候不得而知。
