不定词和动名词两者都可以,但意思不一样。be afraid to do,不敢,害怕去做某事,是主观上的原因不去做,意为“怕”;be afraid of doing,担心呈现doing的状况、结果。doing是客观上造成的,意为“生怕,恐怕”。

  afraid的用法小结

  今天我们要学习的是afraid的几个常用词组的用法:

  1. be afraid of sth (sb) 胆怯某事(某人)。如:

  Are you afraid of dogs? 你害狗吗?

  There’s nothing to be afraid of. 没什么可胆怯的。

  比较:

  He is afraid of her. 他怕她。

  He is afraid with her. 跟她在一起时,他很胆怯。

  2. be afraid of doing sth

  (1) 担心会发生某事或某情况(但实际上未必会发生)。如:

  She was afraid of waking her husband. 她怕吵醒她丈夫。

  I was afraid of hurting her feelings. 我怕伤害她的感情。

  注:be afraid of doing sth 表示担心会发生某事或某情况时,其后也可用 be afraid that 替换。如:

  He was afraid of losing face. =He was afraid (that) he’d lose face. 他怕失面子。

  (2) 胆怯做某事或不敢做某事(指缺乏勇气或胆怯其后果而不敢)。如:

  I’m afraid of telling her. 我不敢告诉她。

  He was afraid of jumping. 他不敢跳。

  3. be afraid to do sth 胆怯做某事或不敢做某事。如:

  He was afraid to fly in a plane. 他不敢坐飞机。

  He was afraid to go into the house and meet his father. 他不敢进屋去见他父亲。

  注:以上两类句型的异同之处:表示担心会发生某事或某情况,只能用 be afraid of doing sth, 而表示胆怯做某事或不敢做某事等,则两者都可用。如:

  Don’t be afraid to ask [of asking] question. 不要胆怯问问题。

  He is afraid to go out [of going out] alone at night. 他不敢晚上一个人出去。
