2.[T]（被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)）被普遍認(rèn)為是；被看作是

3.[I] 料想；預(yù)訂；指望

2、We done been over this,Miss Celia.You supposed to eat in the dining room. 我們不能這樣，西莉亞小姐。你應(yīng)該在餐廳吃飯。

suppose

assume，presume，suppose，guess，postulate

這些動(dòng)詞均含為“假設(shè)，猜想，推測(cè)”之意。

assume指有很少或完全無根據(jù)的武斷推測(cè)或不合邏輯的推理。

presume側(cè)重以過去經(jīng)驗(yàn)或根據(jù)現(xiàn)實(shí)的某些感覺把某事認(rèn)定為是事實(shí)。

suppose常用詞，意義較廣泛，指缺乏確切事實(shí)，根據(jù)一些現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行的推測(cè)，也可指為論證而提出合乎邏輯推理的某種假定，有時(shí)僅表示自己的意見。

guess常用詞，指毫無根據(jù)僅憑個(gè)人主觀臆斷或碰運(yùn)氣的猜測(cè)。

postulate指為證實(shí)一個(gè)理論的正確性而進(jìn)行的假設(shè)。

e.g.It is a fallacy to suppose that riches always bring happiness.

認(rèn)為財(cái)富總能帶來幸福是一種錯(cuò)誤的見解。

3、And look,now I ain't messing around no more. 聽著，我現(xiàn)在不能在這里胡鬧了。

e.g.1、Stop messing around,you silly twit! 別胡鬧了,你這個(gè)蠢貨!
