[注]:say to oneself “在心里想”,talk/ speak to oneself“自言自语”两者不可混淆。
36.by train/ on(in)a the train
二者都有“乘车”之意。当使用介词by表方式时,其后交通工具名词前不用冠词。或其它任何表限定的修饰词,如形容词性物主代词,批示代词等。反之则用介词in (较小的工具如car等);on (较大的交通工具,如train等)。如:on the bus, in his car.
37.by/ at/ the end of ; in/to/ on the end
Ⅰ. by the end of “在……末以前”“到……末为止”后一般接时间名词。如年、月、周等。也可接表活动的名词,如strike.
Ⅱ. at the end of “在……的尽头”,“在……的末端”如:
① At the end of the book there is an index. 书后附有索引。
② We shall have an exam at the end of the month. 本月末我们将有次考试。
Ⅲ. in the end “最终;终于”,后不接of 短语。如:
I hope everything will turn out all right in the end. 我希望最终一切都顺利。
38.by/ near
都有“靠近”的意思。
Ⅰ.by“就在… …旁边”,表示距离更近。如:
① We have by the sea.(暗示我们可以看见大海)
② We live near the sea.(也许我们离海边还有几里远)
Ⅱ.near表示的距离稍远些。见上例。
39. by/ till
Ⅰ.by“到… …之前”“不迟于”仅指动作发生在限定时间之内或到某一时间为止。如:
①Can you repair my watch by Friday? 你能在星期五之前把表修好吗?(句中时间最迟到星期五,动词可以是瞬间的,也可以是持续的)
Ⅱ.till/untill“直到”强调动作的持续状态,直到将来的某一时刻为止。如:
I shall go on working till/untill next Monday.(此种情况只能用于肯定句中动词必须是延续的)
当untill与not连用时,意为“直到… …才”,主句谓语动词必须是非延续性的。如:
I don’t go to bed untill/till you come.
40. call on/ visit/ go to see/ drop in
Ⅰ.四者都有“访问”的意思,但是vist较为正式,可用于访问人,也可用于访问地方。如:
I visited my aunt in Bejing in the summer holidays. 暑假我探望了在北京的姨妈。
Ⅱ.call on有时可代替visit,但只限于人。访问某地方则用call at。如:
We called on Prefessor Liu a few days ago.前几天我们拜访了刘教授。
Ⅲ.go to see为普通用语,一般用于人。如:
Tom is ill. Let’s go to see him after school.汤姆病了,我们放学后去看他吧。
Ⅳ.drop in特指顺路探访,多用于口语。如:
Would you like to drop in and have a cup of tea? 你顺便来喝杯茶,好吗?
