tire(d)

1.tire用作及物动词或不及物动词都可以，但下面几点该注意：

（1）用作及物动词有时作“使疲乏”解，有时作“使厌倦”解。 例如：Walking tires（使疲乏）me. （但tires me似乎不及makes me tired普通。）和He often tires（使厌倦）me with his long stories about his childhood. tire（某人）of...作“使（某人）对于…感觉厌倦”解。例如：Ten years spent in the same village may tire you of many of the familiar scenes.

（2）用作不及物动词有时作“感到疲乏”解，有时作“厌倦”解。例如：He soon tires（感到疲乏）because he is in poor health. 和If you hear the same good story repeated, you will sooner or later tire（厌倦）. tire of作“对于…厌倦”解。例如：If you hear the same good story repeated, you will sooner or later tire of it.

（3）tire（厌倦）后面可以接of和动名词，不可接不定式，如You will sooner or later tire of listening to it里的of listening不可改作to listen。

（4）tire out作“使…极疲乏”或“使…极厌倦”解，那tire是及物动词。

2.tired前面用very，不用much。

3.tired of是“对于…感觉厌倦的”，tired with是“因…而感觉疲乏的”。

4.make sb. tired在美国往往作“使（某人）感觉不愉快”解。
