(1) worth一般只用作表语,用法如下:①主语(物) be worth 名词。如:The new pen is worth 10 yuan。(这支新笔值10元。)The city is worth a visit.(这个城市值得一游。)②主语(人) be worth (表示金钱或财产的)名词, 表示“拥有……财产”。如:He is worth several million dollars.(他有好几百万美元的财产。)③主语(物) be worth 动名词。如:The book is worth reading.(这本书值得一读。)在这种情况下,主语与动名词在逻辑上有动宾关系,因此这个动名词应该是及物的或具有及物性质的短语动词,又如:The broadcast programme is worth listening to.(这条广播节目值得一听。)这种结构也可用先行词it作主语,如:It is not worth repairing the TV set. (这台电视机不值得修了。)
