below prep. 在……下面 adv. 在下面,在下方
[特征]
- The temperature is below zero.
温度在零度以下。
- See the note below.
参见下面的注释。
[贴心叮咛]
英文中有好几个词都表示“在下面”,区别并正确使用它们就是below的考点。
[考点] 辨析below, under和beneath
below所指的范围较宽,指处于比某物低的位置,不一定是正下方,且有一定距离,其反义词是above;under指在某物体的正下方,所指的范围较窄,其反义词是over;beneath相当于below和under,但它是较旧的用法,现在很少用。如:
- The plane is flying below the clouds.
飞机在云下飞行。
- His sister is reading under the tree.
他的妹妹正在树下读书。
- The children are playing beneath the window.
孩子们正在窗下玩。
bend v. (使)弯曲;屈身 n. 弯曲
[特征]
bend的基本意思是“弯曲”,可以作动词,也可以作名词。
- The river bends to the south.
这条河折向南流。
- She bends to her parents' will.
她顺从父母的意志。
- The student bent to pick up a book from the floor.
这学生弯腰从地板上捡起一本书。
- The river takes an abrupt bend to the west.
这条河突然折向西流。
[备考必背] 重要词组
bend one's mind to 专心致志地从事……
- He bent his mind to his business.
他专心于他的业务。
besides prep. 除……之外 adv. 此外;而且
[特征]
- Besides Tom, I have many other friends.
除了汤姆,我还有很多别的朋友。
- I don't like the suit, besides, it is too expensive.
我不喜欢这套衣服,并且,它也太贵了。
[贴心叮咛]
besides是个非常容易考得词,但只要熟练区别besides,except和except for,一切就变得容易了。
[考点] 辨析except,except for,besides和but
except作“除……外”讲时,表示不包括在内;besides作“除……以外”讲时,表示“除了……,还包括……”;except和besides连接的主体类型一致,但except for(除……以外)连接的是部分与整体的关系;but相当于except。
- We all went to see a film last night except/but Tom.
昨天晚上除了汤姆外,我们都去看电影了。(汤姆没去看)
- We all went to see a film last night besides Tom.
昨天晚上除了汤姆去看电影外,我们也都去了。(汤姆去看了)
- The composition is good except for some spelling mistakes.
这篇作文写得不错,只是有一些拼写错误。
[练习与解答]
- I don't mind picking up your things from the store. the walk will do me good. [2004 全国卷]
A. Sooner or later B. Still C. In time D. Besides
答案:D(我不介意去商店取你的东西。再说了,走走路对我也有好处。)根据题意,应该填besides或what's more之类的内容才能与上下文承接合理。sooner or later表示“迟早”;still表示“仍然,还”;in time表示“即时”。
birthplace 出生地,故乡
[特征]
- After twenty years, he returned to his birthplace.
二十年后他回到了故乡。
[贴心叮咛]
birthplace是个复合词,birth(出生)+place(地方),就是“出生地”。
