friend与friendly的搭配对比
一、friend的搭配
以下各搭配中的friends习惯上要用复数,即使with后接的是单数名词也一样:
1. be friends with 与……友好,跟……做朋友

Alice found several girls to be friends with on the first day of school. 爱丽丝上学第一天就和几个女孩交上了朋友。
2. keep friends (with sb) (与某人)保持友好关系

二、friendly 的搭配
1. 表示“对某人友好”,其后接介词to [towards]。如:
He is not very friendly to [towards] newcomers. 他对新来的人不太友好。
表示“与某人要好(或关系亲密)”,其后接介词with。如:
She gets free tickets to the theatre because she’s friendly with the manager. 她可得到剧院的赠票,因为她跟经理很友好。
2. It’s friendly of sb (to do sth) 为英语惯用句式,其意为“某人(做某事)很友好”,注意其中的介词of不能换成for。如:
It’s very friendly of you. 你真好。
It wasn’t very friendly of you to slam the door in his face. 你冲着他摔门太伤和气了。
注意:虽以-ly结尾,却是形容词(可用作定语或表语),不是副词(不用作状语),如:
她总是友好地向我打招呼。
误:She always greets me friendly.
正:She always greets me in a friendly way.
