1．seem+不定式（短語）

　　a)I seemed to hear a voice in the distance .

　　b)Your advice seems to be doing me a favor .

　　c)I seem to have caught a cold .

　　注意：1seem后跟不定式（短語）時,要注意不定式所表示動作發(fā)生的時間,以此來確定不定式的時態(tài).

　　2seem后不定式的否定式習慣上用 don’t 來代替,（放在seem 前）,如：

　　You don’t seem to be quite yourself today ( =You seem not be quite yourself today )

　　2.seem +形容詞

　　a) She seems quite happy today.

　　b) The enemy seems powerful but in fact it is weak.

　　[注]此句式出可看作是seem+to be+adj句式的一種簡化形式.

　　如例a可轉(zhuǎn)換為：

　　She seems to be quite happy today.

　　例b可轉(zhuǎn)換為：

　　The enemy seems to be powerful but in fact it is weak.

　　但目前由于英語的發(fā)展,seem+to be+形容詞結(jié)構(gòu)的用法已越來越少,seem+adj的結(jié)構(gòu)已趨成型,屬口語語體.

　　3．Seem+分詞

　　a) The situation seemed quite encouraging.

　　b) The news seems exciting.

　　c) They seems interested in the film.

　　[注]seem后用現(xiàn)在分詞還是過去分詞取決于分詞本身的邏輯主語,如句中的主語（盍作的執(zhí)行者）是分詞的邏輯主語,用現(xiàn)在分詞,反之用過去分詞.

　　4、seem+名詞

　　a) She seems a clever girl.

　　b) Her mother seems a teacher.

　　c) It seemed a long time before my turn came.

　　5.seem+介詞短語

　　They seemed in high spirits.
