v.(動詞)

gather的基本意思是“(使)人或物聚在一起”,可表示“聚集,采集,積聚,恢復”等義,可用于有形物,也可用于無形物,還可作“把…圍住,拉緊…”“打褶子”解。gather引申可以表示“推斷”。

gather可用作及物動詞,也可用作不及物動詞。用作及物動詞時可接名詞或代詞作賓語。作“采集”解時也可接雙賓語,其間接賓語可轉化為介詞for的賓語。

gather作“推斷”解時可接that從句。

在美國口語中I gather的意思是“我想”,只用于一般現在時單數第一人稱,相當于I suppose,但語氣更婉轉。

gather的過去分詞gathered可用作形容詞,在句中作定語。

v.(動詞)

gather, assemble, collect, congregate

這組詞都有“收集”“聚集”“收撿”的意思。其區別在于:

1.collect指為了某一目的,用心地收撿,并加以仔細整理。例如:

He hung up the map on the wall and collected political cadres and teachers to address them.他把那張地圖掛在墻上,召集政治干部和政治教員來給他們講話。

2.gather是收集的最普通用語,指自發地集中在一起或把分散的東西收攏起來,或從不同的方向聚集到一起,胡子眉毛一把抓地堆集,還可指將抽象事物歸攏。例如:

He travels about the world gathering facts about the little-known disease.他走遍世界,收集鮮為人知的疾病資料。

The hosts are gathered in the adjoining lounge.許多人聚集在隔壁的休息室里。

More and more water was gathering in the swamp.沼澤地里的水越積越多。

3.assemble更強調收集的目的,把人或物密集地聚在一起。例如:

He called us all together, and told the assembled company that the exams had been cancelled.他把我們召集到一起,告訴大家考試已經取消。

The members assembled in the meeting room.成員們都聚集在會議室。

Assemble your papers and put them in the file.把你的文件歸攏好放在這個文件夾內。

4.congregate是自發地、出自本能地或隨意地、散亂地聚集在一起,多用于人或動物。例如:

A crowd congregated around the orator.一群人聚集在演說者的周圍。

The crowd congregated in the town square to hear the President speak.人群聚集到市鎮廣場上來聽總統講話。

Cattle congregate during a storm.在暴風雨中,牲口聚集在一起。

v.(動詞)湯姆和約翰匯集到一起。

誤

Tom and John gathered together.

正

Tom and John got together.

析

gather有“聚集在一起”的含義,所以當gather后面無賓語使用together,就產生了意義上的重疊。另外,兩個人聚到一起也不能用gather,應該用get together。
我們盼望著能再次聚會。

誤

We are looking forward to our gathering again.

正

We are looking forward to our meeting again.

析

親朋好友間的“聚會”多用meet或get together。
我猜你已經采納了我的意見。

誤

I gathered that you've taken my advice.

正

I gather that you've taken my advice.

析

在I gather這樣的詞組里,通常用一般現在時,而不用一般過去時或現在完成時來引出已經了解到的情況或一段引語。
她的愛好是集郵。

誤

Her hobby is gathering stamps.

正

Her hobby is collecting stamps.

析

作為“愛好”而“收集”一般用collect表示,不用gather。gather多作“采集”解,一般指“采集(花等)”。

☆ 直接源自古英語的gadrian，意為聚集。
