be known as 是接职业,但它还有另外一个意思 被称为。。。
be known as 指 因为做什么职业而出名
be known for 指 因为什么事情或者事儿出名
另外:be known as, be known for, be known to 的意义和用法有什么不同?
be known as 意为“被称作”、“被认为”:
These chocolate bars are known as something else in the US, butI can’t remember what. 这种巧克力棒在美国有别的叫法,但我记不起来叫什么了。
be known for 意为“因…… 而著名”:
He was known for his frankness. 他以坦率而著称。
be known to意为“为……所知”:
He is known to the police because of his previous criminalrecord. 他因以前的犯罪记录而为警察所知。
be famous for;be famous as
这一对短语都是“以……而出(著)名”的意思,但它们会在含义和用法上有区别。
(1)当主语是表示人的名词时,be famous for表示“以某种知识、技能、作品或特征而出名”,be famous as则表示“以某身份而出名”。试比较:
Einstein was famous for his Theory ofRelativity.爱因斯坦以他的相对论而著名。
Einstein was famous as a great scientist.爱因斯坦以一位伟大的科学家而著称。
(2)当主语是地点名词时,be famous for 表示“以某种特点(产品)而出名”;be famous as则表示“以什么样的产地而出名”。如:
Scotland has many lakes and mountains, and is famous for itsbeautiful countryside.苏格兰有许多湖泊和山脉,并以其乡村美景著称。
The area is famous as a green tea producingplace.这个地区以绿茶产地而出名。
(3)当主语是事物名词时,be famous for表示“以其内容、特征、价值等而被人所知”;be famous as则表示“以某种形式出名”。如:
This grammar book is famous for its practical usage.这本语法书以其实用性而被人所知。
This book is famous as a reference book.这是一本有名的参考书。
总之,be famous for后的介词是主语的所属内容,而be famous as 后的介词宾语则与主语是同位成分。
be famous to sb。强调的是sb,为/被......所知晓。如:Zhou Jielun is famous to theyoung.周杰伦被年轻人所知晓。
