1. interest
interest这个词很活的，既可以做名词，也可做动词：
常见的为be interested in， 如I am interested in Politics.
还可以是take interest in/take no interest in和be interested in表达意思差不多，以下两句来自新概念英语第三册：
Even people who take no interest in art cannot have failed to notice examples of modern sculpture on display in public places.
即使是对艺术不感兴趣的人也不会不注意到在公共场所展示的现代艺术品。
(Lesson 18 第6句)
Kidnappers are rarely interested in animals, but they recently took considerable interest in Mrs. Eleanor Ramsay's cat.
绑架者很少对动物感兴趣。最近，绑架者却盯上了埃莉诺.拉姆齐太太的猫。
(Lesson 19 第4句)
当然还可以加入一些形容词修饰程度：
I have a deep interest in American TV shows.
另外还可以说more than a little interested 表示很感兴趣（used to express an increased desire, also mean to be curious）
I am more than a little interested in American history.
我对美国历史非常感兴趣。
2. I’m into it.
对某物非常有兴趣。和interested in it差不多，口语中常用。
比如，你看了一场五月天的演唱会，还挺喜欢的，就可以说 “I watched a rock concert last month. and I was really into it!”
表达对什么毫无兴趣，可以说：I'm not really into romance novels
2. be crazy/ mad about something.
为......疯狂；非常喜爱。程度很强烈
very enthusiastic or excited about sth
Rick is crazy about football.
里克对足球着了迷。
He's football-crazy.
他是个足球迷。
I'm not crazy about Chinese food (= I don't like it very much).
我并不十分热衷于中餐菜。
3. It appeals to sb.
听起来不错。并没有喜欢到疯狂，语气较弱。
别人向你提议晚上一起去K歌，你觉得不错啊，可以去。这时候就可以说：Yeah, It appeals to me.
The idea never appealed to me very much。
一开始，他的这一想法没有引起我多大兴趣。
（新概念三课文例句）
4. be partial to…
我更喜欢......这个在口语中也很常用。
liking sb/sth very much 热爱；钟爱
I'm not partial to mushrooms.
我不太爱吃蘑菇。
如果你人缘恰巧很好，一下班，有一波同事喊你去K 歌，有一波同事喊你去看电影，你需要做一个选择，比如选择去看电影，可以说I’m partial to the cinema.
5. one's cup of tea
这个短语我们读书的时候就开始学习了.
英国人对茶情有独钟，无论什么饮品都代替不了茶在他们心中的位置。因此one's cup of tea指的就是“对某人胃口的东西，使某人感兴趣的东西”。
如果有人向你表白，而你想要委婉的拒绝，就可以说：
You are not my cup of tea.
你不是我的菜。（你不是我喜欢的类型）
6. be/become fan of...
对什么着迷，成为谁的粉丝都可以用这个短语，如：
Since then, I became a big fan of seafood since the meat from lobster is very fresh, soft and super mouth-watering
Nick is a big fan of basketball. 当然也可以在fan前面加修饰成分，如 I am an avid fan of American TV Show; I am a big fan of nature.
7. be fond of...
也是对什么感兴趣，以下例句来自新概念三：
How Harry came into the possession of this outlandish stuff makes an interesting story which he is fond of relating.
哈里如何得到这种稀奇古怪的东西的，这里有个有趣的故事，而且他挺爱把它讲给别人听。
(Lesson 52 第11句)
8.fondness 和be fond of 类似 I have a fondness for basketball unlike any other sports. 9. be hooked on to enjoy something so much that you cannot stop doing it.
I'm too hooked on basketball to care about tennis
very eager or interested
10. have a weakness for something
喜爱，偏好 to like, enjoy, be unable to say no to something
I have a weakness for dessert and I can never say no to chocolate.
我喜欢吃甜点，而且我从来无法拒绝巧克力。
