Ask for 表示请求某物,例如帮助、建议或账单,也可以表示要求与某人交谈:ask for Anna at reception。如果请求是向某个特定的人提出,先把人放在 ask 后面:ask your teacher for advice。

ask for + thing; ask + person + for + thing; ask for + person (to speak to them)
- I asked my manager for two days off to help my parents move house.
- When you get to the hotel, ask for Maria at reception; she has your keys.
- Don't be shy about asking for help if the task seems too difficult.
修改原因
修改前When we finished dinner, we asked the bill.
修改后When we finished dinner, we asked for the bill.
不带介词的 ask 常表示提问:ask a question、ask the way。想让别人给你或拿来某样东西时,需要 for:asked for the bill。因为 ask a question 的宾语直接跟动词,容易把这个结构错误套用到索要物品上。
这涉及问问题与提出请求的区别:ask the price 是问价格,ask for a discount 是请求降价。让别人做某个动作时,则不加 for:Ask him to call me back。
动手练习
The soup was cold, so we ___ another bowl.
查看答案
asked for — 汤冷了,我们请对方再端一碗来,所以用 asked for。Asked another bowl 不能表达这个意思:可以问一个人或一个问题,但不能把碗当作被询问的对象。
想一次在咖啡馆、商店或工作中提出请求的经历。说明向谁请求,以及具体要了什么。
Last week I asked the waiter for a glass of water because the curry was very spicy.
