常见动词的错误的用法

发布时间:2016-03-17  编辑:查字典英语网小编

英语动词是所有词类中最易犯错的一种,许多英语运用上的毛病都和动词有关。有时,连常用的动词都会有用法上的错误。例如有些动词意思相近,其实不尽然。至少,在用法上,会有所差别,如rise和raise,stay和remain便是。有些动词,单独用时是一个意思和用法,加上介词时,是另一个意思和用法,如see和see to,search和search for便是。

下面就来详细谈谈。先看这两个句子:

①Sam raises very early every morning.

②The monitor rises his hand to ask a question.

大家知道,raise是个及物动词,意思是举起,要有宾语;rise是个不及物动词,意思是起身,不可有宾语。这里的①和②都错;raises和rises必须对换才对。

③He remained in the Holiday Inn.

④The flowers stayed on the branches.

英语的remain是留下来stay是暂住。显然的,③和④是不合逻辑的,remained和stayed必须互换。

⑤A crook robbed her money.

⑥A few masked men stole a small bank last night.

虽然robbed和stole都是及物动词,有自己的宾语,但是它们在这里的用法不当。Steal要跟着被偷的东西,如钱财、珠宝等;rob的宾语是人或处所。因此,⑤和⑥的robbed和stole要掉转一下。

类似的例子还有下面这些:

⑦a. mendb. repair

这两个动词都是修理不同的是:简单的工作,用mend;复杂的或需要特别仪器的事项,则用repair,如:

⑦a. You can mend the broken part of the page with glue.

⑦b. It took some time to repair the road.

⑧a. burnedb. burnt

这两个动词是burn的过去式和过去分词;在句子中的岗位不同,通常有宾语时用burnt,没宾语时用burned,如:

⑧a. The love of freedom burned in our hearts./ The candle has burned brightly for the whole night.

⑧b. Who has burnt the paper?/ Jane burnt all the letters from her former boyfriend.

至于动词和助动+介词的误用,我们可以看下面两组例子:

⑨The police searched the suspects in the shopping centre, but nobody was arrested.

⑩I searched for my pocket and found some coins.

从语感就知道,⑨和⑩里的searched和searched for是倒置了。⑨要的是寻找(searched for);⑩要的是检查(searched),两者对换才是。

⑾The boy says when he grows, he will be a teacher.

⑿Their business grows up rapidly.

英语的grow是发展grow up是长大。显然的,(11)和(12)的两个动词又误用了,要对调一下。

上面各例证明,英语动词真是不简单。看似没什么问题的,也出现了问题,更何况是复杂特殊的用法呢?
