warn的用法


warn怎么用?warn后该跟哪些词,先看2008年呼和浩特乌兰察布中考试卷中有这样一道题:
  There are some dangerous fishes in this river, and I’ve warned Jack ______ here.
  A. not to swim B. to not swim
  C. swim not to D. to swim not
  答案是A。许多考生对这个答案疑惑不解,究其原因是考生对warn后该跟哪些词没有掌握。为此,本人特作如下归纳。
  warn作动词,有“对(人)警告,提醒(某事),告诫”之意,常见用法有:
  1. warn+ n/pron。例如:
  I won’t warn you again.
  我不再警告你了。
  2. warn + n/pron + to do。例如:
  The teacher often warns us to study harder.
  老师常常告诫我们要更加努力地学习。
  Parents often warn their children not to play with fire.
  家长常警告孩子别玩火。
  3. warn + n/pron + of [about] + n。例如:
  The morning paper warned of serious delays at the airport.
  晨报提醒大家注意机场误点情况严重。
  We warned them about the serious situation that they would have to face.
  我们给他们谈了他们要面对的严峻形势。
  4. warn + n/pron + against + doing…/n。例如:
  I was warned against my neighbor.
  别人警
告我要提防我的邻居。
  The policeman warned him against crossing the road at that place.
   警察提醒他不要在那个地方横穿马路。
  5. 后接从句,that常省略。例如:
  I warn you it’s going to be very cold.
  我提醒你天气会变得很冷的。
  He warned his students that they would have to work very hard to pass.
  他告诫学生必须非常努力才能通过考试。
  温馨提示:上述用法中有些视情况可相互换用。例如:
  医生告诫那个病人不要抽烟。
  The doctor warned the patient not to smoke.
  = The doctor warned the patient against smoking.
  他被警告说桥上有危险。
  There was danger on the bridge. Someone warned him.
  = Someone warned him of [about] the danger on the bridge.
  = Someone warned him that there was danger on the bridge.
