備戰2020中考英語總復習資料
[誤] - what's the problem?
- i've got a headache
[正] what's wrong with you?
i've got a headache
[析] what's wrong with you? 是詢問對方身體狀態如何,而 what's the problem?是問對方遇到了什么麻煩。
[誤] - now, i'm back can i play?
- perhaps you'd better do your homework first
[正] - now, i'm back can i play?
- i'm afraid not you'd better do your homework first
[析] perhaps 是表示對一種拿不準的事態的推論,如: am i right? perhaps而 i'm afraid not 則表達一種不同意的態度。 be afraid 的幾種用法有:
i'm afraid that you are right
其后直接加賓語從句。
- will you come to my birthday party?
- i'm afraid not i have to go to see my father he is in hospital
其后+not,表示否定。
- sorry, i don't want to go there alone, i'm afraid of the dog
其后+名詞,表示對某人,某物的害怕。
mary is afraid of making mistakes in the exam
其后+ of + 動名詞,表示害怕做某事。
mary is afraid to see the teacher because she didn't do well in the exam
其后+ 不定式,表示不敢去做某事。
[誤] - how soon will you be ready?
- two days
[正] - how soon will you be ready?
- in two days
[析] 此題關鍵是要根據情景,身臨其境,要注意的是對方問了什么,就應答什么。或答了什么就應問什么。 how soon 問的是"還有多久才能作完",這時要用 in two days, 即在兩小時之內即可以作完。如用 how long 提問,則答語可以用 two days。
[誤] - would you mind if i have some time off?
- i don't mind
- monday and tuesday of next week
[正] - would you mind if i have some time off?
- when exactly
- monday and tuesday of next week
[析] 有的對話是復雜的,稍有不慎就有可能選錯,而且英語中如選錯了答案是不容易找出錯來的。 i don't mind 是可以用來回答 would you mind…這一提問的,但如仔細看一看則會發現我們要選用的不是陳述句而是疑問句。根據下面一句的答語來判定要用 when exactly? 什么時間,這樣才能與下句中具體的時間相符合。
[誤] suppose your name is tom the phone rings and you pick it up the first word you say will probably be "who are you?"
[正] suppose your name is tom the phone rings and you pick it up the first word you say will probably be "hello? this is tom speaking?"
[析] 在英語學習中,習慣用法實際上在某種情況,或某種意義上講比語法更為重要。如果只從句子的角度上去分析,它們可能都是對的。比如,當你拿起電話時,如果你想知道對方是誰,可以問"who's that(speaking)?"但不要講"who are you?"如果你想先介紹一下自己可以講"this is speaking"而不要講"i'm "也不要講"my name is ." 就語法而論,"who are you?" "i'm my name is "并不錯,也是英語中可用的句子,但就打電話這一場合,就不宜用了。
