中考英語語法精講例析 介詞
[正] i'm sorry. i have to get out of the bus at next stop.
[析] get in, 與 get out是兩個相反的詞組。get in 為上車,而get out為下車,但語法家認為這里的in與out為副詞,所以其后不能接名詞,我們可以講we'd better get in. 或we'd better get out. 還有一組詞組有關上下車:get on/off(a train, a ship, a struck) get into/out of (a car, taxi…)
[誤] be careful the temperature of the water is ninety degrees over zero.
[正] be careful. the temperature of the water is ninety degrees above zero.
[析] over 與 above 在作為比某物高的意思時有時可以互換。但在垂直方向上的高矮時,即正上方時則要用above.而泛指上方時用over.
[誤] there is an old stone bridge above the river.
[正] there is an old stone bridge over the river.
[析] over還有一意為"跨越,橫跨"。
[誤] the dead sea is under the sea level.
[正] the dead sea is below the sea level.
[析] 在垂直下方要用below.也就是講above與below互為反意詞,over與under也是反意詞。
[誤] there is a big tree in the front of the house.
[正] there is a big tree in front of the house.
[析] in front of 是在物體外部的前面,而in the front of 是在物體內部的前面,如:the driver sits in the front of the bus.
[誤] it took them two days to walk across the forest.
[正] it took them two days to walk through the forest.
[析] across 作為介詞有兩個主要意思:① 橫過,如:i want to walk across the street.② 對面,如:there is a post office across the street,而through 多用于三維空間中的穿越。across則多用于平面上的橫過。如:the little girl ran across the room to meet her mother.
[誤] the sun sets toward the west.
[正] the sun sets in the west.
[析] towards也可用作toward,它主要表達朝向某方向運動,但不一定到達,如:he ran toward(s) the mountain.而在表示方位east, west, north, south 時,其前面要用in。要注意的是這4個詞可以用作副詞,如:i went south. 也可用作名詞,如:i went to the south.也可用作形容詞,如:i went to the south part of china.
[誤] do you have no other clothes except those?
[正] do you have no other clothes besides those?
[析] beside 是"在……旁邊",如:the students stood beside their teachers.而besides是"除……之外,不僅……而且……,除了……以外還有……", 如:i studied english besides french, when i was in college. 而except 則是從同一類物體中去掉某一部分,如:i come here every day except sunday. 而except for 是指去掉不同種類的事物,如:the room is clean except for two chairs. 而except that則要加從句。
[誤] can i write the exam paper with ink?
[正] can i write the exam paper with a pen?
