1. 表达“思考”或“考虑”(think about/of)
当 think 表示“思考某事”或“考虑某个问题”时,通常与介词 about 或 of 连用。
I'm thinking about my future.(我在思考我的未来。)She often thinks of her childhood.(她常常想起她的童年。)
注意:think about 更强调“思考过程”,而 think of 常用于“突然想到”或“记起”。
2. 表达“认为”(think + that 从句)
当 think 表示“认为”时,后面可接 that 引导的宾语从句(that 常省略)。
I think (that) he is right.(我认为他是对的。)They think (that) it will rain tomorrow.(他们认为明天会下雨。)
在否定句中,英语习惯将否定转移到主句(否定转移):
I don't think he is coming.(我认为他不会来。)
3. 表达“觉得……怎么样”(What do you think of...?)
用于询问对某人或某事的看法,常用句型为 What do you think of...? 或 How do you think...?(后者较少见)。
What do you think of this movie?(你觉得这部电影怎么样?)What did you think of the meeting?(你对这次会议有什么看法?)
回答时常用 I think it's... 或直接表达感受。
