这是教美式发音的美国老师说的;
1) Thank you to everybody who took the time to make a video for this challenge.
2) Thanks so much to everyone who made a video for this challenge.
3) I will try to get tickets to that Opera. It's my dream to see that Opera.
上面3句话中的to everybody 或 to everyone 或 to that Opera中,介词to表示什么? 这里都可以用for替换吗?
1) Thank you to everybody who took the time to make a video for this challenge.
——此句,thank you 等于一个名词(类似 Thanks)“感谢”;to 表示“送给”。句子的意思是:我把 thank you(感谢)送给各位......
2) Thanks so much to everyone who made a video for this challenge.
——此句,同上。thanks 也是名词。
3) I will try to get tickets to that Opera. It's my dream to see that Opera.
——这里,说 tickets to that Opera 和 tickets for that Opera ,都可以。但稍有不同:to 强调票的“入场用途”,多接 “地址和目的地”。for 表示票的 “目的或作用与功效”,着重指票有哪些用途。
仔细领会:
I have a ticket to the concert.
我有一张音乐会的入场券。
I have a ticket for the concert.
我有一张听音乐会的票。
He bought a standby ticket to New York at 5:30 a.m. the following morning and flew to JFK airport six hours later.
他买了张第2天凌晨5:30飞往纽约的剩余便宜机票,6个小时后飞往肯尼迪机场。
《柯林斯英汉双解大词典》
She hoped that getting this job would finally be her ticket to success.
