用法讲解

n. (名词)
  1. attention表示“注意”时,是不可数名词; 用作可数名词时,指具体活动,表示“殷勤”“款待”,常用复数形式。
  2. call sb's attention to sth 或call sth to sb's attention都表示要某人注意某事。bring sb to the attention of sb else表示“某事使某人得到他人的注意”。
  1. 一般来说，要表达引起某人对某事的注意时，用call/draw one's attention to。表示用某事引起某人注意时，用bring the matter to one's attention，注意两者不可倒过来使用。

    He wants to call her attention to the matter.
    不可以说I want to bring his attention to the matter.

  2. pay attention to是固定的搭配词组，不可以用其他介词替换，如pay attention on。除了指“注意”，pay attention to还指“向女子献殷勤”，如pay his attentions to the girl.要注意his后的attentions用的是复数形式；
  3. 有时候pay attention to后不直接加宾语，而是加动名词，to作为介词。

    I advise you to pay more attention to recording new uses of old words.
    我建议你要更注意记录旧词的新用法。

  4. 为引起大机关或大商店的某人或某部门注意，在写信时可在称呼语后面或后面的下一行或两行加Attention of ...，如Attention of Accounting Department。
n. (名词)
pay attention, pay one's attentions

    n. (名词)

      误 I told him to keep silent because I wanted to read, but he didn't pay any attention at me.

      正 I told him to keep silent because I wanted to read, but he didn't pay any attention to me.

      析 要用pay attention to sb/sth,不能用at代替to。

      司机非常年轻,而且我还注意到他喝醉了。

      误 The driver of the car was very young and I paid attention that he was drunk.

      正 The driver of the car was very young and I noticed that he was drunk.
