class [误] The class is watching TV. [正] The class are watching TV. [析] class作主语时,如果作为整体讲则应用单数形式的谓语动词,如:The class was more than forty in number. 如考虑到具体的每个成员时则应用复数形式的谓语动词,如:The class are, in general, very bright. clean [误] Sorry, I didn't bought it here. I cleanly forgot. [正] Sorry, I didn't bought it here. I clean forgot. [析] clean可以作为副词讲,其意为"完全",而cleanly则意为"正确地"、"干净利落地",如:The knife doesn't cut cleanly. 而clean作为形容词讲时意为"清洁的"、"干净的",如:Her face is not clean now. clever [误] I'm not clever in English. [正] I'm not clever at English. [析] clever at是固定搭配,表示在某方面有特长。 close [误] It is cold outside. Please keep the door close. [正] It is cold outside. Please keep the door closed. [析] 这里的close是动词,意为"关闭",而keep后要加形容词,所以要用close的过去分词形式closed作形容词。作形容词用的close意为"近的"、"亲密的"。 [误] Come closely so that I can see you. [正] Come close so that I can see you. [误] Good teaching and good testing are close related. [正] Good teaching and good testing are closely related. [析] close,closely同样可以作副词用,但其意义不同,close是"靠近"、"接近"之意,而closely则是"紧密"、"严密"、"密切"之意。 [误] My school was quite close from my home. [正] My school was quite close to my home. [析] "与……接近"是close to…,例如: He was close to fifty. There is a busstop close to the station. close shut turn shut与close是同义词,如close the door或shut the door. 但要讲把某人关在门外时则只能用shut somebody out而不能用close,因shut语气较强,并含有隔离之意。而turn off是指关上电视、电灯、煤气之类,有切断之意。 cloth [误] The children wear very good cloth to go to school. [正] The children wear very good clothes to go to school. [误] I need a lot of clothing. I'm going to make a new cloth. [正] I need a lot of cloth. I'm going to make a new dress. [析] cloth是"布"、"布料",没有复数形式。一块布料是a piece of cloth, 而clothes统指衣服,是复数名词,"一套衣服"要讲a suit of clothes, 如果是"一件件衣服"应讲shirt, dress, sweater等。而clothing是衣物的总称,是不可数名词。例如:This clothing is needed in warm countries.Her clothes are made of fine cloth.英语中的dress是指比较正式的服装,如a school dress(校服),a student dress(学生套装),a working dress(工作服)。 coffee [误] Please give me two waters. [正] Please give me two coffees. [正] Please give me two cups of water. [析] 虽然coffee, water, tea等都是物质名词,但是只有coffee可用coffees取代若干杯coffee,而其他的却不行,其前要加a cup of或a glass of. colour(color) [误] Colours of flowers are red, yellow and white. [正] Flowers are red, yellow and white. [析] 中文的"花的颜色有红色、黄色和白色",若译为英文Colours of flowers are…,就显得重复了。 [误] I like green colour. [正] I like green. [正] I like colour green. [析] colour green中的colour是green的同位语,所以这种说话方式英语是可以接受的。 特别说明:由于各方面情况的不断调整与变化,新浪网所提供的所有考试信息仅供参考,敬请考生以权威部门公布的正式信息为准。
