63、believe, trust
一、believe 动词。意思是“相信、认为”。多作及物动词,常跟从句(that常省略)、名词、代词、带不定式的复合结构(主要是to be,也有其它动词的完成式)。believe含有一种和缓的不太肯定的口气。例如:
I believe you are right. 我想你是对的。(我认为你对,但不十分肯定)
Helen could scarcely believe her eyes. 海伦简直不敢相信她的眼睛。
I believe him to be honest. 我相信他的诚实。
You should believe him to have done that.你们应该相信他作完了那件事。
二、trust 动词、名词。作动词表示“信赖、放心让做某事、相信、希望”。作名词表示“信任、信赖、责任、职责、任务”。作动词多作及物动词。所“相信”的程度比believe更大。例如:
I trust you are right. 我相信你是对的。
They trusted each other although they were going to part. 虽然他们要分开,但他们还是相互信任。
