用法讲解

v. (动词)
  1. tender的基本意思是“投标”。作“提供”“提出”“献给”“偿付”解时,通常用在较正式的场合,一般不用于物品的提供而用于感谢、歉意或辞呈等的提出,语气较强,强调提供者谦虚或礼貌。
  2. tender可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时,接名词或代词作宾语。tender可接双宾语,其间接宾语可转化为to的宾语。tender还可接由as短语充当补足语的复合宾语。作不及物动词时,常接介词for。
  1. tender表示“提供”时，后可接双宾语。

    I wish to tender him my thanks for his kindness.
    我想对他的好意表示感谢。

  2. 英国人习惯在tender后加services，resignation，thanks，apologies等词作为宾语，一般用于正式文字；
  3. legal tender表示“法定货币”，前面不可与a搭配使用，属单数名词，没有复数形式。
v. (动词)
tender, offer, prefer, present, proffer
  • 这组词都可表示“提出”。它们之间的区别是：
  • 1.present特指通过礼仪形式或彬彬有礼的行为向对方提供考虑、选择或认可的服务、建议或物品。
  • 2.offer是最基本、最常用的词,表示主动奉献某物或提出别人可能接受或拒绝的建议、意见、职务等。例如:
  • The teacher offered a few ideas to improve the plan.老师提出了几点改进计划的意见。
  • She offered to help me to learn English.她提出要帮我学英语。
  • 3.proffer强调因慷慨所产生的自愿奉献行为,是较正式用语。例如:
  • Many people proffered blood and skin for the badly burnt worker.很多人要求为那个严重烧伤的工人献血献皮。
  • 4.tender专指在公务上或法律上呈请正式批准,作一般用法时,强调温和有礼。例如:
  • She tendered him her resignation.她向他提交了辞呈。
  • 5.prefer只用在19世纪的英语中或某些法律场合才表示“提出”。例如:
  • The police preferred a charge against the motorist.警方控告那个汽车司机。
  • Will the police prefer charges against the boys or just give them a warning?警方会控告那些男孩吗?还是只给他们一个警告?
