中學(xué)生英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)常見(jiàn)錯(cuò)誤一覽表3
[誤] there are less farms than there used to be.
[正] there are fewer farms than there used to be.
[析] few的比較級(jí)為fewer,其后接可數(shù)名詞;而little的 比較級(jí)為less,其后接不可數(shù)名詞。
field
[誤] he is a famous scientist on the field of physics.
[正] he is a famous scientist in the field of physics.
[析] in the field是"在田野上"或是"在某一學(xué)科領(lǐng)域內(nèi)",而on the field則多指"在戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)上"。如:he lost his life on the battle field.
fill
[誤] she filled orange into my glass.
[正] she filled my glass with orange.
[析] 表示要用某種物品裝滿某容器時(shí)要用fill with詞組,如:the boy ran back home filled with joy.
fill full
fill是動(dòng)詞,但有及物與不及物兩種用法,當(dāng)表示"充滿"之意時(shí)是不及物動(dòng)詞,應(yīng)用fill with,如:the little girl's eyes filled with tears. 而當(dāng)表示"使……裝滿某物"時(shí),是及物動(dòng)詞,如:he filled his pocket with books. 而be filled with應(yīng)看作系表結(jié)構(gòu),如:the boy's mother was filled with anger. full是形容詞,要用be full of這一詞組,如:the boy was full of joy.
find
[誤] he has finded his lost bike.
[正] he has found his lost bike.
[析] find是不規(guī)則動(dòng)詞,其過(guò)去式和過(guò)去分詞均是found。但found一詞又意為"建立",它是規(guī)則動(dòng)詞,其過(guò)去式及過(guò)去分詞均為founded.
[誤] it is very difficult to look for a suitable job.
[正] it is very difficult to find a suitable job.
[析] look for為"尋找",而find是找到。尋找工作并不難,難的應(yīng)是找到合適的工作。
find find out
find out意為"找出、算出、發(fā)現(xiàn)",如:i have found out how to do it. 而find的主要側(cè)重點(diǎn)在找到某物,如:i find my book under the desk.
finish
[誤] i finished to read that book last night.
[正] i finished reading that book last night.
[析] 英文中有些動(dòng)詞其后只能用動(dòng)名詞作賓語(yǔ)而不能用不定式作賓語(yǔ),這樣的動(dòng)詞在中考范圍內(nèi)有兩個(gè),即finish和enjoy。
fire
[誤] there's no smoke without a fire.
[正] there's no smoke without fire.
[析] 此句應(yīng)譯為中文"無(wú)風(fēng)不起浪"。fire作為物質(zhì)名詞"火"講時(shí)為不可數(shù)名詞,而作為"爐火"、"火災(zāi)"講則是可數(shù)名詞,如:there was a fire in the next street last month. 如要講"著火了"要用be on fire, 如:the factory was
on fire.
[誤] the man fired to us.
[正] the man fired at us.
[析] fire (on) at均指"向某目標(biāo)開(kāi)火",at用于較小目標(biāo),而on用于較大目標(biāo)。
first
[誤] is this your firstly visit to beijing?
[正] is this your first visit to beijing?
[析] 除了在強(qiáng)調(diào)第一、第二、第三等場(chǎng)合中有時(shí)還可見(jiàn)firstly一詞外,這個(gè)詞已不多見(jiàn),而均被first取代。first還有"首先"、"首次"、"第一次"之意。
follow
[誤] i received a letter which ran as follow.
