[误] I'm sorry I have to go. Tom's family is waiting for me.?
[正] I'm sorry I have to go. Tom's family are waiting for me.?

[析] far一般不与实际距离连用。?
[误] Did you walk far?
?Yes,I walked far. ?

[析] 一般肯定句中不用far单独作状语,而用a long way.far组成的常用词组有:as far as. ①远至,一直到。如:He walked as far as the station. ②就而言。如:As far as he was concerned these books were very good. ③只要。如:I can help you as far as I can.? so for到目前为止。例:He is very well so far.?

fast ?
[误] A fast train runs fastly.?
[正] A fast train runs fast.?
[析] fast其形容词与副词形式相同。?

fast指行动本身的速度快,如:The foreigner speaks too fast. 而soon则多指两个动作之间间隔短,时间到来的迅速,如:She will come soon.?
feel ?
[误] I feel badly about my mistakes.?

[析] feeling在作感情讲时要用复数,而作感觉讲则要用单数。如:I have a feeling that we will win the game.?
few ?
[误] Few of them is very good.?
[正] Few of them are very good.?

[析] 表示要用某种物品装满某容器时要用fill with词组,如:The boy ran back home filled with joy.?
fill full ?
fill是动词,但有及物与不及物两种用法,当表示充满之意时是不及物动词,应用fill with,如:The little girl's eyes filled with tears. 而当表示使装满某物时,是及物动词,如:He filled his pocket with books. 而be filled with应看作系表结构,如:The boy's mother was filled with anger. full是形容词,要用be full of这一词组,如:The boy was full of joy.?
find ?
[误] He has finded his lost bike.?
[正] He has found his lost bike.?
[析] find是不规则动词,其过去式和过去分词均是found。但found一词又意为建立,它是规则动词,其过去式及过去分词均为founded.?
[误] It is very difficult to look for a suitable job.?
[正] It is very difficult to find a suitable job.?
[析] look for为寻找,而find是找到。寻找工作并不难,难的应是找到合适的工作。?
find find out ?
find out意为找出、算出、发现,如:I have found out how to do it. 而find的主要侧重点在找到某物,如:I find my book under the desk.?
finish ?
[误] I finished to read that book last night.?
[正] I finished reading that book last night.?

fire ?
[误] There's no smoke without a fire.?
[正] There's no smoke without fire.?
[析] 此句应译为中文无风不起浪。fire作为物质名词火讲时为不可数名词,而作为炉火、火灾讲则是可数名词,如:There was a fire in the next street last month. 如要讲着火了要用be on fire, 如:The factory was
on fire.?
[误] The man fired to us.?
[正] The man fired at us.?
[析] fire (on) at均指向某目标开火,at用于较小目标,而on用于较大目标。?
first ?
[误] Is this your firstly visit to Beijing??
[正] Is this your first visit to Beijing??
[析] 除了在强调第一、第二、第三等场合中有时还可见firstly一词外,这个词已不多见,而均被first取代。first还有首先、首次、第一次之意。
?

foot ?
[误] There is a five?feet?wide bridge.?
[正] There is a five?foot?wide bridge.?
[析] 用连字符组成的形容词中所有名词均要用单数形式。?
[误] We went to college on feet.?
[正] We went to college on foot.?

for ?
[误] I wanted to go to the pub for having a drink.?
[正] I wanted to go to the pub for a drink.?
[正] I wanted to go to the pub to have a drink.?
[析] 用for表示目的时,其后面只能接名词,而不要接动名词。?

[析] for作为因为讲时一般不要置于句首,而且口气也比because弱的多。?
forget ?
[误] I left my key.?
[正] I left my key at home.?
[正] I forgot my key.?
[析] leave是丢下之意,所以一定要接地点状语,而forget是忘记,所以不用接地点状语。?
[误] I will not forget the rules.?
[正] I will never forget the rules.?
[误] Please don't forget posting my letter on your way home.?
[正] Please don't forget to post my letter on your way home.?
[析] 要注意forget to do something为忘了去作某事,而forget doing something则应译为对已经作过的事记不起来了。如:He forget returning the book to the library. 应译为他忘记已把书还给图书馆这件事了。同样用法的词还有remember和regret.?
free ?
[误] You can speak free in front of my parents.?
[正] You can speak freely in front of my parents.?

[析] French是法语、法国的,而France才是法国。
?

[析] friendly是形容词,不是副词。在英语中应避免讲He is a friend of my mother. 又比如:I go to school with my friend. 从语法上讲是对的但不是习惯上英语的说法。而应讲He is a friend of my mother's. I go to school with a friend. be friends with 则是交朋友之意,例如:I hope you will be friends with me. 而不应讲I hope you will be my friend. 交朋友还有一惯用法是make friends.?
from ?
[误] Where do you come from??I come from the library. ?
[正] Where do you come from??I come from England. ?
[正] Where did you come from??I came from the library. ?
[析] Where do you come from?应意为你是从什么国家(地方)来的?(即意为你是哪的人?)而Where did you come from? 才是你刚刚从哪来??
front ?
[误] There are three tall trees in the front of my house.?
[正] There are three tall trees in front of my house.?
[析] in front of是某物体外部的前面,而in the front of是在某物体内部的前面。如:The bus driver is seated in the front of the bus.?
