高二英語Mainly Revision教案
用作名詞時,作“蓋子”,“封面”解。
the magazine had a picture of a horse on the cover. 這本雜志封面上畫著一匹馬。
our desks and chairs are fitted with loose covers. 我們的桌椅均配有桌套和椅套。
用作動詞時,就十分靈活了。請看下面的句子:
she covered her knees with a blanket. 她把毯子蓋在膝蓋上。
i was covered in/with mud by a passing car. 一輛過路的汽車濺了我一身泥。
his lecture covered the subject thoroughly. 他的演講對這個問題闡述得很透徹。
the soldiers can cover the distance on foot in an hour. 士兵們可以在一小時內走完這段路程。
is that word covered in the dictionary? 這部詞典里有那個單詞嗎?
2. as soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. 新聞記者一旦得知他們所要寫的新聞,就著手干起來。
句中的短語動詞get down to sth, 作“開始干某事”解,(相當于to begin to do /doing sth.)其中的to是介詞,后接名詞,代詞或~ing形式。例如:
it's time i got down to some serious work. 我該認真干點正事了。
when you get down to something, you should work hard. 當你著手做些事的時候,你應該努力地去做。
while the weather was fine, my father got down to repairing the house. 趁著天氣好,我父親開始修理房屋了。
3.they telephone people and fix a time for a face-to -face interview with them. 他們同有關人士打電話,約定時間同他們進行面對面的采訪。
a.句中的face-to -face是一個固定詞組,意思是“面對面”,在句中作定語,修飾名詞interview.例如:
it's hard for them to have a face-to -face argument. 進行面對面的爭論對他們來說不容易。
需要注意的是,如果face to face不連寫時,作狀語用,意思是“面對面地”,“面對著”,“碰面”。例如:
the hospital and the food store stand face to face. 那家醫院正對著食品店。
i've heard of the famous professor, but i never met him face to face. 我聽說過那位著名的教授,但是從沒和他見過面。
除了這一詞組外,類似還有一些,如:heart to hear心連心,貼心的,hand in hand手拉手,arm in arm臂挽臂shoulder to shoulder肩并肩。
