1、理解、体会。I appreciate the difficulty.我理解这种困难。I am afraid you don’t appreciate America.恐怕你不理解美国。

4、后续宾语问题。其后可接名(代)词、动名词、名词性从句等作宾语,但不能接不定式。如:We shall appreciate hearing from you again.能再次收到你的来信,我们将十分感激。注意:其后只能接“事”作宾语,而不能接“人”作宾语 (注意:这与thank 的用法恰恰相反)。如:正:I appreciate your kindness. 谢谢你的好意。误:I appreciate you for your kindness.正:He thanked her for her kindness. 他感谢她的好意。误:He thanked her kindness.
5、后接if或when从句的问题。其后不直接跟if或when引导的从句,若语义上需要接这类从句,需借助it。如:I would appreciate it very much if you would help me with it.如果你能帮助我做这事,我会十分感激。We really appreciate it when she offered to help.她来帮忙了,我们十分感激。
