備戰2020中考英語總復習資料
picture
[誤] there are some spots in the picture.
[正] there are some spots on the picture.
[誤] there is a young woman on the picture.
[正] there is a young woman in the picture.
[析] 指濺落在畫面上的灰塵,污物是on the picture,即講與畫面內容無關的東西用on,而in the picture用于講畫面的內容。
pity
[誤] what pity that her mother must always suffer!
[正] what a pity that her mother must always suffer!
[析] pity作為遺憾之事講常加不定冠詞;但要注意作為同情、憐憫講則不加冠詞,為不可數名詞,如: i feel pity for you. 它還可以用作動詞,如: he pitied the poor people.
[誤] i have pity for you.
[正] i have pity on you.
[析] 可憐某人時應用have (take) pity on somebody,這是個慣用法。
place
[誤] last year he went to america. he travelled from place to another.
[正] last year he went to america. he travelled from place to place (from one place to another).
[析] 到處譯為英文時為from place to place請不要在place之前加冠詞。這種用法在有些語法書中叫作零冠詞用法,如:一戶挨一戶為door by door,手拉手為hand in hand.
[誤] the accident was taken place in that street.
[正] the accident took place in that street.
[析] take place為發生,它不能用于被動態,這樣的詞還有happen等。
[誤] there is no place in the bus.
[正] there is no room in the bus.
[析] room這里為不可數名詞,意為空間,即沒有地方了。place多指場所所在之地。

[析] take the place of 意為代替、取代某人某事。
play

please
[誤] my friend pleased me to his birthday party yesterday.
[正] my friend invited me to his birthday party yesterday.
[析] please作為動詞時其詞義不是請,而是高興、愿意等意,如: she always does what she pleases. (她總是想做什么就做什么。)又如: it's hard to please all. 而please作為請講時為語氣詞,多用于祈使句中,如: please come in.
[誤] both the teacher and the mother were pleased to the little girl.
[正] both the teacher and the mother were pleased with the little girl.
[析] 對某人表示滿意、喜歡,應用be pleased with somebody. 對某事感到高興和滿意時多用be pleased at或about,但有時也可用with,卻不能用of.
