惊讶的英语区别

astonish和surprise在英语中都可以用来表示惊讶，我曾在课堂上认真分析过这两个词汇，它们在含义侧重点和用法上存在着区别，具体如下：

一：含义解释

astonish 英 [əˈstɒnɪʃ]  美 [əˈstɑːnɪʃ]   vt. 震惊;使十分惊讶;使大为惊奇;使吃惊

surprise 英 [səˈpraɪz]  美 [sərˈpraɪz]  n.惊讶  v.（使）吃惊  adj.出乎意料的;令人惊奇的

相同点：都可以表示惊讶。

不同点：astonish侧重于指事情的发生不可思议而“难以置信”；surprise侧重于指因未预料或意外的事而引起的惊奇之感。

二：用法区分

1、astonish：用作动词。当以人作主语时，astonish须搭用by或with引起的短语表示导致惊讶的原因；astonish作“某人对某事物感到惊讶”解时，用被动式或系表结构。

2、surprise：用作及物动词，其宾语常是人称代词，接名词、代词或以现在分词充当补足语的复合宾语；还用作可数名词，在句中还可用作定语。

三：典型例句
