Unit 3

⒈ 【friendly】張莉莉跟我們很要好。

誤：Zhang Lili is friendly to us.

正：Zhang Lili is friendly with us.

析：friendly to表示“對某人表示或采取友好的態(tài)度”，而friendly with 表示“跟某人相識，與某人要好、交朋友”。

⒉ 【shy】別不好意思告訴我你想要什么。

誤：Dont be shy about telling me what you want.

正：Dont be shy of telling me what you want.

析：be shy of是固定詞組，表示“不好意思做某事、猶豫不想做某事”，用of不用about。

⒊ 【the other】請睜開你的另一只眼睛。

誤：Please open your another eye.

正：Please open your other eye.

析：another指三者或三者以上的另一個， the other指兩個東西中的另一個，your other在此等于the other。

⒋ 【so】由于天快要下雨,所以我們歇手吧。

誤：As it is going to rain, so lets stop working.

正：As it is going to rain, lets stop working.

正：It is going to rain, so lets stop working.

析：漢語中“因為……所以……”，不能用as…so，這是因為as是從屬連詞，so是并列連詞，兩者不能同時使用。

⒌ 【during】我生病期間，睡得不好。

誤：During I was sick I couldnt sleep well.

正：While I was sick， I couldnt sleep well.

析：during是介詞，不能連接從句，應(yīng)用連接詞while引導(dǎo)時間狀語從句。

⒍ 【relax】晚飯后，我們常常聽音樂來獲得休息。

誤：After supper we often listen to music and relax our body and mind.

正：After supper we often listen to music and relax.

析：relax是“身心放松、休息、休養(yǎng)”，本身含有oneself， ones mind, ones body,因此our body and mind是多余的。

Unit 4

⒈ 【police】警察正在追趕一個小偷。

誤：The police is running after a thief.

正：The police are running after a thief.

析：police作主語時，謂語用復(fù)數(shù)形式。police作警察時相當(dāng)于policemen/policewomen。

⒉ 【dangerous】他在那條河里游泳有危險。

誤：He is dangerous to swim in that river.

正：It is dangerous for him to swim in

that river.

析：dangerous用作表語“可能引起危險的”，句子的主語對別人有危害，因此人放在后面。

⒊ 【sometimes】我有時給在上海的媽媽寫信。

誤：I sometime write to my mother in

Shanghai.

正：I sometimes write to my mother in

Shanghai.

析：sometimes“有時”，一般用于一般現(xiàn)在時，而sometime表示“在將來或過去的某個時候”。

⒋ 【give】這是一本書，請給她。

誤：This is a book, please give her it.

正：This is a book, please give it to her.

析：give后可跟雙賓語，即give sb. sth.或give sth. to sb.，當(dāng)sth.用代詞表示時只能用句型give sth. to sb.。

⒌ 【wear】他經(jīng)常穿棕色的鞋子。

誤：He is often wearing brown shoes.

正：He often wears brown shoes.

析：wear“穿著、戴著”，表示某時某刻的狀態(tài)時，用進(jìn)行時表示，當(dāng)指經(jīng)常性行為時，用一般現(xiàn)在時表示。

⒍ 【out】不要往窗外看。

誤：Dont look out from the window.

正：Dont look out of the window.

析：表示“從……里面向外”，可說out of，不可說out from。

⒎ 【newspaper】我在一張報紙上看到了你的名字。

誤：I saw your name on a newspaper.

正：I saw your name in a newspaper.

析：在報紙上（看到報道）用in the(a)newspaper，不用on the(a) newspaper。

⒏ 【news】這里有你的好消息。

誤：Here is a welcome news for you.

正：Here is a piece of welcome news for you.

析：news為不可數(shù)名詞，表示數(shù)量時用piece，如一條消息：a piece of news，兩條消息two pieces of news。
