中考英语常见错误4
bring ?
[误] Please bring this dictionary to Mr Brown.?
[正] Please take this dictionary to Mr Brown.?
[误] Next time, please take your little sister here.?
[正] Next time, please bring your little sister here.?
[析] 英语中bring是带来,而take是带走。还有一个词fetch, 表示到某处去把某物取、接回来。如:Please fetch the doctor at once.?
business ?
[误] My father went to Shanghai for business.?
[正] My father went to Shanghai on business.?
[析] on business出差?
busy ?
[误] The students were very busy to prepare for the exam.?
[正] The students were very busy preparing for the exam.?
[析] be busy doing something为忙于作某事?
[误] The students were busy for the exam.?
[正] The students were busy with the exam.?
[析] busy直接接名词时应用with.?
but ?
[误] He couldn't help but realizing that he was wrong.?
[正] He couldn't help but realize that he was wrong.?
[误] She couldn't help to cry when she saw her mother.?
[正] She couldn't help crying when she saw her mother.?
[析] couldn't help其后应接动名词,表示情不自禁的动作,但couldn't help but后面要加动词原形即省to的不定式,所以前一句应译为他才真正认识到他错了。
buy ?
[误] I have bought this dictionary for three years.?
[正] I have had this dictionary for three years.?
[析] buy是截止性(即瞬间)动词,它可以有完成时,如:I have bought this dictionary. 但是不能与表示较长的时间状语连用。如要讲我这本字典已买了3年了则要用have had这一结构即我拥有这本字典已3年了。?
by ?
[误] The boy shot the cat by a gun.?
[正] The boy shot the cat with a gun.?
[误] He came to school by a taxi this morning.?
[正] He came to school by taxi this morning.?
[析] 作为某种运输手段来讲,by与名词间不能有冠词,如:by car, by bike, by air等。如有了冠词或其他修饰词,则应用别的相应的介词,如:我们今天早上是乘他的车来的一句应译为:We came here in his car this morning.?与by结合而成的词组很多,常用的有:by the way顺便说说;by hand手工制作;by oneself独自地;by no means决不。
