4、當(dāng)reply指“答復(fù)”時(shí)，是不及物動(dòng)詞，如有賓語(yǔ)應(yīng)加介詞to，賓語(yǔ)應(yīng)該是答復(fù)的具體對(duì)象。

　　5、reply后不可接人和that從句。

　　用法例句：

　　1. He said in reply that the question was unfair.

　　他回答說(shuō)這個(gè)問(wèn)題不公平。

　　2. They went ahead without waiting for a reply from the Germans.

　　他們沒(méi)等德國(guó)人答復(fù)就接著往下推進(jìn)。
