［问］I____(认出)Mike the moment I saw him．(全国高考，99-78)

所给的标准答案是：recognised ／recognized(realized，knew不可接受)。

上句中用knew真的是不可接受的吗？

［答］know通常用作静态动词，作"知道"、"懂"、"认识"解。但是，know也可用作动态动词，作"认出"、"识别出"解。CIDE明确指出，To know something or someone can be recognize them．LLA在注释know这一含义时说：To recognize something or someone，especially when you have not seen them for some time or when they have changed a lot．(认出某人或某物，尤指长时间没有看到他们或他们有了很大变化)下面是这方面的实例：

1．I don't think it's much good ____to him．

A．writing B．write

C．to be written D．being written

3．It's not worth your while reading this book，because it isn't accurate．这本书不值得你去读，因为它不准确。

4．It was difficult to sell my car．我的汽车很难卖掉。

D．用动名词作主语时，虽然也可用it作形式主语，而将作真实主语的动名词置于句末，但这限于有限的句型：在It is之后接有no use，no good，fun，a wonder， useless，nice，worth- while，worth one's while，good，interesting，funny，hopeless等词或短语：
