问
Who acts as the part of Hamlet? 由谁来扮演哈姆雷特?
请分析上面的句子是否正确？
答
act as 是指“担任……职务”“起……的作用”，act(vt.) 是“扮演(……角色)”，因此，上句中的 acts as 应改为 acts。请比较：
-
The actor acts the part of the hero. 这位演员扮演主人公。
-
He has acted (the part of Romeo) in many theatres. 他已在许多剧场里演出过(扮演过罗密欧)。
-
I don't understand their language; you'll have to act as interpreter. 我不懂他们的语言，你得当翻译。
-
He acts as head of the department when his boss is away. 老板不在的时候,部门由他领导。
