make somebody ( sth ) +動(dòng)詞 使某人做某事
“make+賓語(yǔ)+動(dòng)詞原形”形態(tài)是典型的祈使句型。比具有相同含義的 have 或 get 的語(yǔ)氣更重,因此 make 表示一種強(qiáng)制性,無(wú)論賓語(yǔ)愿不愿意,都要按照主語(yǔ)的意愿行事。
例句:
Don't make me laugh!
別逗我!
There are ways to make this work.
肯定有辦法讓它動(dòng)起來(lái)的。
You'll make it happen. I'm sure about that.
你肯定能成功,我對(duì)此堅(jiān)信不疑。
This sauce is so spicy, it's making my mouth burn.
這醬很辣,我的嘴唇都快爆開了。
對(duì)話:
A: My television has been broken for a week.
我的電視機(jī)壞了一個(gè)星期了。
B: Let me look at it. I can make this work.
讓我瞧瞧,我能把它修好。
