take
[误] This year I want to take the drivers license.
[正] This year I want to get the drivers license.
[析] take可以作为动词,意为拿、取,如: I want to take my mail. 而要获得某种证书、证明,要用get而不用take, take在学校范围内意为参加或选修某些课程,如: This term I want to take both French and Spanish.
[误] The accident was taken place at the street corner.
[正] The accident took place at the street corner.
[析] take place与happen一样作为发生讲时没有被动语态。
[误] Do you take me as a fool
[正] Do you take me for a fool
[析] takefor意为以为是、错当作、误认为,而这一意思还可以用于I took you to be the best friend. (我把你认作是最好的朋友。)
[误] My English teacher was ill. Who will take place her
[正] My English teacher was ill. Who will take the place of her
[析] take the place of意为取代。
talk
[误] Yesterday I met an old friend. We talked many things.
[正] Yesterday I met an old friend. We taked about many things.
[析] talk是不及物动词。
team [误] Our team likes seeing film.
[正] Our team like seeing film.
[析] team与family,class等词一样,指整体时为单数名词。如: Our team is excellent, 而指集体中的个体时要用作复数。
than
[误] They made fewer mistakes this term than they made last lerm.
[正] They made fewer mistakes this term than they did last lerm.

then
[误] We went to the cinema, then went to a Chinese restaurant.
[正] We went to the cinema, and then went to a Chinese restaurant.
[正] We went to the cinema; then went to a Chinese restaurant.
[析] then作然后讲时,在then前应加分号而不用逗号,或加逗号用and then,但是如果是倒装句则要用逗号,如: First come Tom, then Mary.
think
[误] I think you are not right.
[正] I dont think you are right.
[析] think在肯定句中与中文的习惯用法是一致的,如: I think you are right. 但在宾语从句是否定意思时,要否定think,如: I dont think you are right.
[误] I think he will come here, do I
[正] I think he will come here, wont he
[析] think加宾语从句时,反意疑问句的主语应用宾语从句中的主语,助动词要用宾语从句中的助动词,而肯定还是否定要看主句中的情况决定:如主句用肯定句,则反意疑问句用否定句,反之亦然。
[误] People think very high of his work.
[正] People think very highly of his work.
[析] think highly of为对某人某事评价很高。

thousand

[正] I had a long distance call with John on the telephone.
[误] It took us two hours to walk across the forest.

throw
[误] He threw a stone to me.
[正] He threw a stone at me.
[析] 扔这个词表示方向时要注意他向我扔石头是at me,我向他扔石头则为to him,但throw at还有寻衅之意,如: Stop throwing stones at the cars. 这时不要误用to.
time
[误] The doctor came on time so she was saved.
[正] The doctor came in time so she was saved.
[析] in time为及时赶到,如: Do you think we can get there in time for the first act. 而on time 意为准时,如: The train arrived on time.
[误] It is time we go home.
[正] It is time we should go home.
[正] It is time we went home.
[析] 是该作某事的时候了,其句形为: ① It is time for somebody to do something. ② It is time+从句,从句中用should+动词原形,或直接用动词的过去式。
[误] Lets hurry. We havent many times.
[正] Lets hurry. We havent much time.
[误] I have been to America two times.
[正] I have been to America twice.
[析] time作为时间讲时为不可数名词,而作为次讲时则是可数名词。但一次不是one time,而是once;二次不是two times,而是twice;三次则是three times.
too
[误] This box is too heavy to lift it.
[正] This box is too heavy to lift.
[析] 在tooto这一结构中,如果主语和不定式的宾语是一致的,则不要重复。
[误] The child is too young not to go to school.
[正] The child is too young to go to school.
[析] tooto这一结构用来表示太以致于不能,但下面的句子则不能照此翻译: Im too glad to meet you. 应译为我见到你真太高兴了。
[误] There is much too noise.
[正] There is too much noise.
[析] much too+形容词,而too much+不可数名词。
[误] You have bought too much tomatoes.
[正] You have bought too many tomatoes.
[析] too many后才加可数名词。
also as well too
这三个词是近义词,但其用法各有不同。其一,too和as well通常用于句末,如: She went to the cinema and her brother went too. 而also则不用于句末,如: Ive also read her other novels. 其二,这三个词都不用于否定句中,否定句中用noteither,或neither/nor,如: He isnt here either.
trousers
[误] My trouser is getting smaller and smaller.
[正] My trousers are getting smaller and smaller.
[析] 英语中trousers, pants, shorts(短裤),glasses(眼镜)都要用复数形式。
[误] This pair of glasses are very good.
[正] This pair of glasses is very good.
[析] 有了量词a pair of,其后的谓语动词要与量词相一致。如: two pairs of的谓语动词就要用复数。

[正] I tried sending her flowers but it didnt have any effect. (我试着给她送花,但没有什么结果。)
