    小知识

    The noun worth refers to the monetary value of something. If your grandmother gives you a strange old coin from her collection, you can have it appraised to determine its worth.

    The noun worth also means the inherent value of something based on the qualities of excellence, usefulness or importance. Don't underestimate your worth to the group; the whole bake sale would have fallen apart without you, and your brownies were delicious. As an adjective worth describes something that has a value or deserves to be treated a certain way, like when your hard work baking is worth the effort.

    单词解说
    有些语法学家认为worth是形容词,但实际上worth更具有介词的语法特征,可支配名词短语,带逻辑主体的动名词和wh-从句,但不能跟主动不定式。
    worth常用于sth is worth v-ing结构中,动名词短语在这里表示被动意义。本结构中的sth有时可换用it,这时it是形式主语,动名词短语是真正主语。
