1. put away意為"收起來;放好",可接名詞或代詞作賓語。如果接代詞,代詞必須放在put和away之間。 如:
Don't put your clothes on the bed. Put them away.
2. There's no difference.
no修飾不可數(shù)名詞或可數(shù)名詞復(fù)數(shù)時,相當(dāng)于not any; 修飾可數(shù)名詞單數(shù)時,相當(dāng)于not a。用在There be 句型中時,be的單復(fù)數(shù)取決于被修飾名詞的單復(fù)數(shù)。如:
There is no (=not any) milk in the glass.
There are no (=not any) chairs in the room.
There is no (=not a) kite in the sky.
3. like后接V-ing形式或后接不定式時都意為"喜歡做某事"。但前者表示經(jīng)常性或習(xí)慣性的動作,后者表示具體某一次的行為或動作。如:
I like watching TV, but I don't like to watch it today.
4. get home的意思是"到家"。get home, get here, get there等短語中的home, here, there都是副詞,副詞前不需加介詞,因此要去掉to。
5. 介詞by表示交通方式時,其后的名詞要用單數(shù)形式,并且不帶冠詞或其它限定詞。而on, in表示交通方式時,其后的名詞則要加冠詞。 如:by train = on a train, by car = in a car。
6. Why don't you ...? 的簡略形式是Why not ...? ,意為"為什么不......呢?",用來間接提出建議,后接動詞原形。
7. Walking is good for health.
句中的walking是動名詞作主語。動名詞作主語時,謂語動詞用單數(shù)形式。
