make one’s apologies to sb. for sth.= make an apology to sb. for sth.如:

2、appear
As a result, it appered to scientists on earth that the stars had moved.因此,地球上的科学家看来,恒星好像是移动了。
句型:It appears/seems(to sb.) +that—clause.看来/似乎是……
①It appears to me that something is wrong.我看好像有点不大对头。

appear/seem/look
appear, seem, look都有“看起来似……”之意,但其暗含意思和用法又各有不同。
从意义上讲:
(1)appear强调外表给人的印象,有时含实质上并非如此的意思,如:
He appears to know more than he really does。他看起来好像懂得很多。(其实懂得没有那么多)
(2)seem暗示有一定根据的判断,这种判断往往接近事实,如:
His health seems to be better.他的健康状况似乎有所好转。
(3)look着重由视觉得出的印象,如:
He doesn’t look his age.他看起来比实际年龄年轻(或老成)。
从用法上讲:
seem和appear后可加
(to + be)+表语(adj.或n.或prep.)
+to v.
It + ~ +(that)从句如:
He seems/appears(to be)very sad today.=It seems that he is very sad today.
It seems like years since I saw you last time.
He seems a kind doctor.(=It seems that he is a kind doctor.)
He seems/appears to have caught a cold.=It seems/appears that he has caught a cold.
3、look
look当“看起来似乎…和as if从句。如:He looks strong. She looks like her mother. It looks as if we are going to miss the train.…”讲时,可接形容词、过去分词、名词、介词短语
