agree on与agree with的区别

agree on与agree with的区别

有关agree 与介词搭配的问题,这里引用英国著名语言学家 Frederick T • Wood 所著的《英语介词习语词典》中的解释,以供“中国少年”网友参考:

agree之后用的介词是about, among, on, to和with。其中with是最常见的介词。

1. 当我们自己的意见跟另一个人的意见相同的时候,就说We agree with him.(我们同意他的意见)。当我们赞同某项建议、声明、做法、提议等等时,或这些项目得到我们的同意时,我们说:We agree with...。如:

I agree with all you say. 我同意你所说的一切。

I don't agree with buying children expensive presents. 我不同意给孩子们买昂贵的礼物。

agree with也用于:

(i) 表示两件事物之间的一致性。例如:

The evidence of the first witness did not agree with the story told by the prisoner. 第一个见证人的词跟犯人所述的情节不一致。

(ii) 指食物、气候条件等等对一个人的健康或体质的影响。例如:

I never eat pork; it does not agree with me. 我从来不吃猪肉,因为我的体质不宜吃猪肉。

This damp weather does not agree with my rheumatism. 这种潮湿的气候对我的风湿病不利。

2. 如果赞同某件事,就说:We agree to something. 我们同意某事。如:

It is doubtful whether the trade union representatives will agree to the proposals put forward by the employers. 工会代表是否同意雇主提出的建议是值得怀疑的。

▲ 当接用不定式时,介词就合并在不定式的to中。如:

They agree to try out the scheme for a period of three months. 他们同意以三个月为期试验这个计划。

3. agree on用来指取得或达到同意的事物(表“达成一致”)。例如:

I agree with you on that point. 在那一点上我同意你。

The representatives of the two sides have now agreed on the proposals to be put before their members. 双方的代表现已同意那几项提交给他们的成员的建议。

4. agree about的意义更为一般,指在讨论中或考虑中已得到同意(或不同意)的问题。例如:

Though they saw eye to eye on most things, they could never agree about the merits of Picasso as a painter.虽然他们对大部分东西的看法完全一致,但对毕加索作为一个画家有什么优点的问题却一直意见分歧。

5. agree among用来指一群人之间的互相同意。在其后,接一个反身代词。例如:

What hope is there of our reaching agreement with the other side if we can't agree among ourselves? 如果我们之间不能取得同意,我们还有什么希望与对方达成协议?
