16.to find out: (to get information, discover, learn)

【说明】

to find out（得悉，发现，查明）与find略有不同，find out指故意去寻而寻出：

【例】

(1) I was unable to find out the name of the man who called.

我想不出那个打电话来的人的名字。

(2) Will you please try to find out for me what time that train arrives?

能否请你替我查明火车什么时候到达?

17.to look at : (do direct the eyes toward, watch)

【说明】

to look at (眼睛望着，注视)亦可解释为考虑，调查（consider, investigate），如：The judge said that he would look at the matter of the widow’s right to the property. （法官说他将考虑寡妇对这财产的权利。）look一般都用作不及物动作，与许多不同的介系词结合而形成各种意义不同的片误。Look at 与see 并不相同，see的意思是看到，往往是无意的，上面两句里的look at 都不可改用see.

【例】

(1) The teacher told us to look at the blackboard and not at our books.

教师教我们注视黑板，不要看着我们的课本。

to look for （寻觅，搜寻）也有期望，盼望的意思，如I don’t look for much profit from the business. （我并不期望从生意中得到优厚的利益。）
