1.alive /living 两个词都可用作形容词,都与"活着"有关,但它们也存在着区别,用法上也不尽相同。 A.alive意为"活着的;在世的;活泼的;热闹的",作表语时,既可以指人也可指物;alive作定语时,一般放在所修饰的名词之后作后置定语。另外,alive还可以用作宾语补足语。例如: The fish I caught is still alive.我捉的那条鱼还活着。(作表语) No man alive will believe it.活着的人是不会相信它的。(作后置定语) The soldier caught the spy alive.那士兵活捉了那个特务。(作宾语补足语) B.living意为"活着的;现存的",可用于修饰人或物,指某人、某物某时候是活着的,在句中可作表语或定语。作表语时,与alive用法相近;作定语时,常放在所修饰的名词之前。例如: Both plants and animals are living things.植物和动物都是生物。(作前置定语) Is your grandmother still living /alive?你祖母还健在吗?(作表语) 练习: 用alive或living填空: 1.An enemy officer was caught . 2.The whole square was with people singing. 3.How many languages are there in the world? 4.Is the old man still ? (Keys:1.alive 2.alive 3.living 4.living /alive) 2.high /tall high和tall都有"高"的意思。 A.high一般表示物体的高度,它的反义词是low。例如: Can you see the high wall?你能看见那堵高墙吗? The big tree is about ten metres high.那棵高树约有十米高。 B.还可以作比喻用,有"高度的"、"高级的"、"高等的"意思,这时不宜用tall取代,如:high price(高价),high fever(高烧)等。 C.tall可指身材的高度,一般用于人和动物,它的反义词是short。例如: Tom is taller than Wei Fang.汤姆比魏芳个子高。 D.tall与high都可用来指tree,building,tower(塔)等的高度,但指mountain时,只能用high。 练习: 用high或tall填空: 1.Your price is too . 2.This kind of flower grows in mountain areas. 3.This is a horse. 4.Shanghai has many buildings. 5.She is a girl,so she can reach the apples. (Keys:1.high 2.high 3.tall 4.tall/high 5.tall,high) (文/江苏海安 张庆;英语辅导报初三版03--04学年度第20期;版权归英语辅导报社所有,独家网络合作伙伴新浪教育,未经许可,不得以任何形式进行转载。) |
