  begin

  [误] The meeting will begin from Monday.

  [正] The meeting will begin on Monday.

  [误] The film has begun for ten minutes.

  [正] The film has been on for ten minutes.

  [析] begin是瞬间动词,所以它的完成时态不能接表示一段时间的状语,如:The film has begun. 这句话是对的,即"电影已经开始"。但要讲已经开始10分钟了则要用has been on即"上演了10分钟"。

  begin、start

  begin与start两词后面加不定式或动名词都可以,且意思并无区别,但在表达习惯时接动名词的用法较多,如:How old wern you when you first started learning English?但这两个词的进行时态中则多用不定式,如:I was beginning to get hungry. 但如果句子的主语是物而不是人,则多用不定式,如:The ice began to melt. It started to get dark before we got to school. 当动词是表达某种心理状态时,要用不定式,如:The student began to understand his mistakes.

  [误] They study hard in the class from the beginning to the end.

  [正] They study hard in the class from beginning to end.

  [析] from beginning to end是习惯用法,即自始至终,不要加冠词,但如单独使用则要加冠词,例如:At the beginning,the teacher gave us an exam.

  behind

  [误] He missed the class because he was behind the time.

  [正] He missed the class because he was behind time.

  [析] behind time一短语意为"晚了",而behind the times意为"落后于时代"。behind是介词同时又是副词,如Come out from behind the door(介词). He's a long way behind(副词). He fell behind with his classmates(副词).

  below

  [误] What's that below the chair.

  [正] What's that under the chair.

  [析] under意为"正下方",而below意为"比……低",或指"在下游"。如:There is a fall below the river. (河的下游有一个瀑布。)其反义词为over,如:There is a big plane flying over the city. 但在"下面的例子"一表达语中则要用the example below, 而不要用under.

  beside

  [误] The students stood besides the teacher.

  [正] The students stood beside the teacher.

  [误] I study English beside Chinese.

  [正] I study English besides Chinese.

  [析] beside意为"在……旁边",而besides是"除……以外(还如何)"。

  beside、by、near

  beside意为"在……旁",如:There is a tall tree beside the river. by多指"倚、靠"、"沿着"之意,如:She is standing by the window. near多用来表示两地间距离不远,如:There is a post office near our school.

  better

  [误] You had better to do it at home.

  [正] You had better do it at home.

  [误] You hadn't better wake me up at six.

  [正] You had better not wake me up at six.

  [析] had better在肯定句中为"应该作某事",其后加不带to的不定式,而在否定句中应用had better+not+动词原形。在简答语中had常省略为'd,如:You'd better not. 又如:

  Let's go first. No, we'd better not.

  between

  [误] Among the two trees there is a space of the feet.

  [正] Between the two trees there is a space of the feet.

  [析] 两者之间多用between,三者或三者以上之间则用among.

  [误] You must choose between this club or that club.

  [正] You must choose between this club and that club.

  [析] 在两个之间作出选择要用between…and…,而不能用between…or….

[上一页] [1] [2] [3] [4] [下一页]
