be sure的三种用法

1. be sure+of/ about+动名词或名词，意为确...... .....有把握”。但在接名词时，be sure of侧重指主语对某抽象事物的确信无疑:而be sure about则侧重指主语对某具体事物的确信无疑。例如: He is sure of success.他自信会成功的。 I'm sure of his honesty.我肯定他是诚实的。

However, he went on to explain that he was not sure about two things- thegrammar and some of the

idioms.不过，他接着就解释说，他在语法和某些习惯用语方面都没多大把握。

If you are not sure about the situation in the world, you can read the newspaper every day.如果你对世界形势不大了解，你可以每天看看报纸。

若后面要接反身代词，则只能用be sure of,即be sure of oneself，意为“有自信心\"。例如:

Joan will sit for an important examination next week, but she is not sure of herself,琼下周要参加一个重要考试，但她对自已没有十分把握。 2. be sure+不定式，表示说话人对句子主语作出的判断，认为句子主语“必定”、“必然会”、“准会”。例如: Itis sure torain.天一定会下雨。

He is sure to have known about that.他准会知道那件事。

He told me I was sure to get a warm welcome.他告诉我，说我准会受到热情接待的。

然而be sure to do用在祈使句中，不是表示判断，而是表示对对方的要求，意为“务必要\“一定要”。例如: Be sure not to forget it!千万别忘记呀!

Be sure to send my regards to your mother.务必代我问候你母亲。 Be sure not to do that again.一定不要再干那种事了。 3. be sure+宾语从句， 表示主句主语对宾语从句中涉及的事物所作出的判断，意为\"确信某事一..会.....例如:
