"one's attitude towards" 是英语中表达"某人对……的态度"的常用短语,用来描述主语(某人)对某个对象(人、事、物或行为)的看法、立场或情绪倾向。
one's:形容词性物主代词(如 my/his/her/our/their)或名词所有格(如 Tom's/Mary's),表示"某人的";
attitude:核心名词,意为"态度、看法";
towards:介词(美式英语也可写为 toward),引出"态度的对象"(即"对什么的态度")。
"towards" 是介词,因此后面必须接名词、代词、动名词(-ing 形式)或名词性从句,不能接动词原形。
基本句型:sb. has a(n) + 形容词 + attitude towards sth./sb.
(某人对……持……的态度)
例:She has a positive attitude towards teamwork.(她对团队合作持积极态度。)
例:He has a negative attitude towards online shopping.(他对网购持消极态度。)
描述态度的变化:change one's attitude towards sth./sb.
(改变对……的态度)
例:After the talk, she changed her attitude towards me.(谈话后,她改变了对我的态度。)
询问态度:What's one's attitude towards sth.?
(某人对……的态度是什么?)
例:What's your attitude towards climate change?(你对气候变化的态度是什么?)
动名词作介词宾语(表示"对做某事的态度")
例:Our teacher's attitude towards learning English is very encouraging.(我们老师对学英语的态度很鼓励人。)
towards vs. toward:两者通用,无本质区别(towards 更常见于英式英语,toward 更常见于美式英语);
避免混淆:不要将"attitude towards"误写为"attitude of"("attitude of"通常表示"……的态度",但逻辑主语不同,如"the attitude of the students towards the new policy" 是"学生们对新政策的态度",而非"新政策的态度")。
1、 His attitude towards work is always serious and responsible.(他对工作的态度总是严肃负责。)
2、 My parents' attitude towards my career choice is supportive.(我父母对我职业选择的态度是支持的。)
3、 The company's attitude towards customer complaints needs to improve.(公司对客户投诉的态度需要改进。)
总结:"one's attitude towards" 是表达"对……的态度"的核心短语,关键是掌握介词后接名词性成分的规则,结合形容词或动词(如 change)可灵活描述态度的性质或变化。
