1. 表示“以……出名或著称”,用介词 for;表示“作为……出名或著称”,用介词 as。如:
France is famous for its wine. 法国以其葡萄酒出名。
He is rather famous as a writer. 他是著名作家。
2. famous 是一个语气很强的词,通常指在很大范围内为人所知,它一般不用于小有名气的普通人或物——此时可用 well-known。如:
He is a well-known businessman in our town.
他是我们镇一位有名的商人。(此句不宜用 a famous businessman)
3. infamous 的意思是“声名狼籍的”“臭名昭彰的”等,不要想当然地认为它是 famous 的反义词。
I want to see all these famous places.
我想看到所有这些著名的地方。
In my holiday I will go to visit some famous places.
在我的假期我将去参观一些著名的地方。
As you like music,you can introduce some famous singers to me.
因为你喜欢音乐,你可以给我介绍一些著名的歌手吧。
