四．重点知识讲解

receive为动词，意为“接受”，其固定短语为receive…from。其对应词为accept“接受”。receive强调动作，accept强调结果。
（1） receive和accept都可表示“收到，接受”，但receive仅是表示收到，接不接受是另一回事，而accept表示确切的“接受”。Receive只表示被动地收到。如：
Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra ￡100 a year!
后来他笑了，并且告诉我说，我将一年收到一百英镑的额外收入！
If you receive a request like this, you cannot fail to obey it!
如果你受到这样的一种请求，你不会不服从的！
She has received his present, but she will not accept it.
她收到了他的礼物，但她是不会接受的。
I received an invitation from him but I don’t want to accept it.
我收到了他的邀请，但是我并不想接受邀请（而赴约）。
（2） accept多事接受抽象的东西，如想法、表扬、批评、道歉等。receive多是接受实际的东西，如信件、礼物等。如：
I accepted your mind. 我接受你的想法。
I received a letter from him. 我收到了吉姆的来信。
（3） 表示“接见；接待”时，要用receive而不用accept。如：
She was warmly received. 她受到热情款待。
