offer和provide都有“提供”的意思,但有所區(qū)別。offer通常用來表示主動(dòng)提供某物,常用于offer sb. sth. 或 offer sth. to sb. 結(jié)構(gòu)中。provide常用來表示提供需要或有用的東西,常用于provide sb. with sth.或provide sth. for sb. 結(jié)構(gòu)中。
一、offer “主動(dòng)提出;自愿給予”
offer to do sth., “主動(dòng)提出做某事”;
offer sb. sth.= offer sth.to sb.“提供給某人某物”。
若offer后面所接的直接賓語為代詞時(shí),只能用offer sth.to sb.結(jié)構(gòu)。
She offered me a cup of tea.
= She offered a cup of tea to me.
二、provide 為做好準(zhǔn)備而“提供;供給”
provide sb. with sth.= provide sth. for sb.
Our government provides the students with free books.
= Our government provides free books for the students.
