　　我们可以用Google搜索“welcomes *** to”（一个*号代表任意一个单词，以此控制welcome与to之间的单词数目），发现大多数场合是to welcome someone to some place，以及to welcome something，如：

　　1. President Bush Welcomes Prime Minister Sharon to White House

　　2. Dr Dreary welcomes you to Creep Street!

　　3. UNFPA Welcomes Anglo-Dutch Action to Avert Condom Crisis

　　4. VLADIMIR PUTIN WELCOMES U.S. DECISION TO RECOGNIZE RUSSIA AS MARKET ECONOMY

　　也有个别例子用句型to welcome someone to do something:

　　1. The Chinese government welcomes students studying abroad to return and develop their careers at home, Vice Minister of Personnel Shu Huiguo said Sunday.

　　2. Sidhu welcomes visitors who are interested to come and watch the performance of this talented martial artist.

　　1. s Eve. She knows that no one will welcome her to share the festivities and

　　2. aloof. Here, everybody else had welcomed me to take photographs of their

　　3. Act as an historic village and we welcome you to join us on a special tour
