一提到deny這個單詞,很對人大概都不會陌生。deny通常表示的意思是"否定、否認,不承認"。今天,咱們就一起來看一下deny這個單詞的用法吧。首次來看一下deny常用的意思。
①當deny表示"否認"時,後面可以接賓語也可以接that引導的賓語從句.例如:
She denied that he had lost her bag.
她否認包已經丟了。
She denied the evidence .
她否認了這些證據。
She denied her carelessness.
她否認自己粗心。
有時,當表示"否認已經做了某件事"是,可以用deny+ v-ing 來表達,即deny doing sth.
例如:
She denied losing her handbag.
她否認自己的手提包丟了。
She denied losing that much money when
gambing.
她否認在賭博是輸了那麼多的錢。
因為表示的事否定及不承認已經做過和發生的事,所以有時也可以用deny having done 的形式來表示上面的兩個句子:
eg. She denied having losing her handbag.
She denied having losing that much money when gambling.
The naughty boy denied having broken the
window.
這個淘氣的小男孩否認自己打破了窗戶。
② 當deny 表示"拒絕給予,拒絕接受"時,後面可以直接跟具體的某一事物.
例如:
Those who do not study hard enough will be denied the access to a brighter future.
學習不夠刻苦努力的人沒有更光明的未來。
She was denied the opportunity to the new
courses because she failed to pass the final
test.
I denied his offer . 我拒絕了他的提議。
They denied us enough food when we told
them that we were hungry.
當告知他們我們餓了,他們拒絕給我們足夠的食物。
He denied my offer even though I insist on
doing him a favor.
儘管我執意要幫他,他還是拒絕了我的好意。
