regret的用法

regret doing/to do

我很遗憾必须这样去做,我实在没有办法。

我不为告诉她我的想法而后悔。

典型例题

---You were brave enough to raise objections at the meeting.

---Well, now I regret ___ that.

A. to do B. to be doing C. to have done D. having done

答案:D。regret having done sth. 对已发生的事感到遗憾。regret to do sth. 对将要做的事感到遗憾。本题为对已说的话感到后悔,因此选D。

remember doing/to do

remember to do 记得去做某事 (未做)

remember doing 记得做过某事 (已做)

Remember to go to the post office after school.

记着放学后去趟邮局。

Don't you remember seeing the man before?

你不记得以前见过那个人吗?

stop doing/to do

stop to do 停止,中断做某事后去做另一件事。

stop doing 停止做某事。

They stop to smoke a cigarette. 他们停下来,抽了根烟。

I must stop smoking. 我必须戒烟了。

典型例题

She reached the top of the hill and stopped ___ on a big rock by the side of the path.

A. to have rested B. resting C. to rest D. rest

答案:C。由题意可知,她到了山顶,停下来在一个路边的大石头上休息。因此,应选择"stop to do sth. 停下来去做另一件事"。而不仅仅是爬山动作的终止,所以stop doing sth.不正确。

bath与bathe用法比较

1. bath的用法

(1) 用作名词,一般指在室内的浴室或浴缸里“洗澡”,是可数名词;英国英语和美国英语都用它,但搭配上稍有差别,英国英语多用have a bath,而美国英语多用take a bath。如:

I shall have [take] a hot bath and go to bed. 我洗个热水澡就将上床睡觉了。

(2) 用作动词,也指在室内的浴室或浴缸里“洗澡”,只用于英国英语中;在美国英语中一般不这样用,要表示类似用法美国人会用bathe。如:

I bath(英)[bathe(美)] every night. 我每晚洗澡。

She bathed in cold water winter and summer. 不论寒暑她都用凉水洗澡。

但是,即使在英国英语中,bath用作动词是比较正式的用法,在非正式文体中,人们通常会用have a bath或take a bath。

另外,在英国英语中,bath还可用作及物动词,后接宾语,但在美国中英语中则用bathe。如:

It's your turn to bath [bathe] the baby. 该你给孩子洗澡了。

2. bathe的用法

(1) 用作名词,指到室外的河里或海里等“游泳”,主要用于英国英语中,属比较正式的用法。如:

It's a sunny day. Let's go for a bathe. 今天天气晴朗,咱们游泳去吧。

(2) 用作动词,也指到室外的河里或海里等“游泳”,也主要用于英国英语中。如:

On hot days we often bathe [go bathing] in the river. 天热时我们常在河里[去河里]游泳。

该用法属比较正式的用法,在非正式文体里,一般说have a swim, go for a swim, go swimming, 或者就说swim。如:

Let's go for a swim in the river. 咱们下河游泳吧。

另外,在美国英语中,bathe经常用来表示“洗澡”,相当于英国英语中的bath。如:

I always bathe(美)[bath(英)] before I go to bed. 我睡觉前总要洗个澡。

3. bathe无论在英国英语还是美国英语中,都可以表示用水冲洗身上疼痛的部位,此时为及物动词。如:

The nurse bathed the wound. 护士冲洗伤口。

The doctor told him to bathe his eyes twice a day. 医生叫他每天洗眼两次。

4. 汉语说“日光浴”,说成英语是sunbathe,不是sunbath。如:

I like to sunbathe in the morning when the sun is not so hot. 我喜欢在早晨阳光不太强烈时沐日常浴。

weigh与weight的用法

一、weigh的用法

weigh 为动词,主要用法注意两点:

1. 表示“称……的重量”,是及物动词。如:

Will you weigh it, please? 请你称一称它,好吗?

Can I have this parcel weighed here? 我可以在这儿称一下这个包裹吗?

2. 表示“重(多少)”,是不及物动词,也有的词典认为此时为连系动词。如:

How much do you weigh? 你体重多少?

This luggage weighs 20 kilograms. 这件行李重20公斤。

二、weight的用法

weight 为名词,主要用法注意两点:

1. 表示“重”“重量”“分量”,不可数。如:

What is the weight of the parcel? 包裹有多重?

The kilogram is the international standard of weight. 千克是国际重量标准。

有时可专指“体重”。如:

She should eat less if she wants to lose weight. 如果她想减肥,就应当少吃些。

During her illness her weight went down from 50 kilos to 40. 在病中她体重由50公斤下降到40公斤。

2. 比较 by weight与in weight:前者表示“按重量”,后者表示“重量上”。如:

Do they charge carriage by weight? 他们是按重量收取运费吗?

It's smaller in size but greater in weight. 它体积比较小,但分量比较重。

such as与for example的用法区别

一、两者的用法共同点

such as与for example均可用于表示举例,有时可互换。如:

Some sports, such as (=for example) motor racing, can be dangerous. 有些体育运动,比如赛车,有时是很危险的。

My wife likes social activities, such as (=for example) tennis and golf. 我妻子喜爱社交活动,如打网球和高尔夫球等。

二、两者的用法不同点

such as除表示举例外,还可表示诸如此类,意思是“像……这样的”“诸如……之类的”,此时不宜与for example互换(但可与表示诸如此类意思的like互换)。如:

Opportunities such as (=like) this did not come every day. 这样的机会不是天天都有的。

Avoid unhealthy foods such as (=like) hamburger and chips. 不要吃汉堡和薯条之类的不健康食品。

另外,such as有时可分开用,但for example不能分开用。如:

The disease attacks such animals as cats and dogs. 这种病只侵袭像猫狗一类的动物。(比较:The disease attacks animals such as cats and dogs.)

三、两者位置的不同点

such as用于举例时,总是跟在被说明的内容之后,不能独立成句,也不能用于句首或句末,其后也不能用逗号,但for example可以。如:

Each situation is different. For example, a man with a rich wife doesn't have to work. 情况各有不同,例如,娶了有钱妻子的男人就不必工作。

You make too many mistakes—lots of spelling mistakes, for example. 你的错误太多——比如,有好多拼法错误。

【边学边练】用such as, for example, like填空:

1. After talking about the job in general, we got down to the specifics, ________ the salary.

2. Carmakers use robots to do unpleasant jobs, ________ painting cars in hot conditions.

3. There is a real risk of injury in sports ________ climbing.
