八年級上冊units 4--6知識歸納
一、詞語辨析:
1、arrive, get, reach
arrive不及物動詞,后面要跟in或at。表示到達大城市或國家時要用in,而到達小城市、鄉村、車站等小地方則用at。如:
we arrived in london last week. 我們上周到達倫敦。
the doctor arrived at the village at last. 醫生終于到達了那個村子。
reach是"獨行俠",是及物動詞,后面從來不跟介詞,直接跟賓語(地點名詞)就行了。如:
when did you reach the station? 你是什么時間到達車站的?
he reached nanjing at noon. 他是中午到達南京的。
get是不及物動詞后面要接to再接地點名詞,.當“到達”的地點是副詞時,就不帶它了。如:
ann got to the farm at six o‘clock. 安六點鐘到達農場.
i got here early in the morning. 我一大早就到這兒了.
注意:如果不指明到達的地點就不能用get,而要用arrive.如:
when i arrived, they weren‘t there. 當我到達時,他們不在那兒.
2、sick, ill
(1)都可譯為“生病的”。ill只在系動詞后作表語:
her mother was ill in bed. she feels ill today.
但sick既可作表語: her mother was sick / ill in bed. (作表語常是美國英語用法)
也可作定語(即后接名詞):jane is taking care of her sick mother.
(此處是定語,不可用ill. 原因見下文ill用法)
(2)若ill作定語,譯為“壞的,惡劣的”an ill person一個壞人
sick作表語時也常譯為“惡心的,想吐的”。
the boy always feels sick when he travels by car.
3、other, another, the other
another與the other 和others 與the others都來源于other這個詞。
其用法是:
another泛指三個或三個以上的人或物中沒有確定的另一個;
another+數字+名詞= 數字+more+名詞;
the other則指已知的兩個人或兩事物中的另一個。(one…,the other….)
others或 other+ 名詞,泛指“別的人或別的物”;
the others指“一定范圍內的其余的人或物”。
注意:若強調確定數目中的“一(幾)個”與其余的,用one...the others或“the other +復數名詞”結構。
