补充

(1)It is worth while seeing [to see] seeing the movie.

=The movie is worth seeing.

由此二句型混淆而来的

It is worth seeing the movie.或

The movie is worth while seeing.

都应该避免。

(2)在worth while之后通常用动名词,在worth one's while之后则用不定词:

It would [will] be worth your while to see the movie.

字辨

当名词时, worth, value均表物之价值:

the worth [value] of a used car

严格而言worth指物体本身的道德、文化、精神上的价值, value指对利用者或他物之相关价值或交换价值:

The true worth of a writer's [an artist's] work cannot be measured by its market value.
