词汇精选:usually的用法和辨析

一、详细释义:

adv.

通常,经常;一直,向来

例句:

The gown a surgeon wears during an operation is usually green.

外科医生在做手术时穿的手术服通常是绿色的。

例句:

Bid package: Usually refers to bids where there is more than one item involved.

一揽子投标:通常是指包含一项以上招标内容的标书。

二、词义辨析:

always,often,usually,frequently,repeatedly,regularly

这些副词均表示频度。 always总是,永远。语气最强,指在一切时候,没有例外。 often经常,语气弱于always,侧重动作发生的次数具有经常性,具体时间意味不强。 usually通常,通例地,指习惯性动作,频度仅次于always,较often大,偶尔有间隔。 frequently时常,经常,与often同义,可通用,但较正式,强调次数频繁。 repeatedly屡次,强调次数多,但反复的频率不一定均匀。 regularly用于修饰经常而有规律性的动作。

三、参考例句:

3. Usually

3。经常

He usually fares sumptuously.

他平常吃得很丰富。

He usually wears jeans.

他经常穿牛仔裤。

Medicines are usually compounds.

药品通常是复合物。

almost和nearly的用法区别

1. almost [nearly] 都可用来修饰不定代词、形容词、副词、动词、介词短语等,此时两者常可换用。如:

My car almost [nearly] stood still because of a traffic block. 我的车子因为交通阻塞而几乎动弹不得。

It is almost [nearly] late for you to catch the last bus. 天晚了,你快赶不上末班公共汽车了。

With so much loud music, conversation was almost [nearly] impossible. 音乐声那么大,几乎没法交谈。

We almost [nearly] came to blows over what colour our new carpet should be. 我们为了用什么颜色的新地毯险些打了起来。

要注意它们与被修饰词的位置关系。比较并体会以下正误句子:

据说这个报社平均每天要收到百来篇来稿。

正:It's said that the paper receive an average of nearly 100 articles a day.

误:It's said that the paper nearly receive an average of 100 articles a day.

另外,再比较:

Everything was almost double the normal price. 样样东西几乎都是平时价格的两倍。

Almost everything was double the normal price. 几乎样样东西都是平时价格的两倍。

2. almost 可用于 any 以及 no, none, nobody, nothing, never 等否定词之前,但 nearly 一般不这样用。如:

He almost never remarks on how she looks. 他几乎从来不说她长相如何。

He is very practical—he can make or mend almost anything. 他很能干,几乎会制造或修理任何东西。

The plots in her books are very strong but there's almost no characterization. 她写的书情节性很强,可是几乎没有对人物的塑造。

Tolerant of human frailty in whatever form, she almost never judged people. 她对人性的各种弱点都能够包容,几乎从不评价他人。

His father found him a cushy job in the office, with almost nothing to do and a whacking great salary. 他父亲给他在事务所找到了一份轻松舒适的工作,几乎什么都不用做,工资还极高。

但是,两者都可用在否定动词之前。如:

He almost [nearly] didn't catch the bus. 他差点没赶上公共汽车。

3. nearly 前可用 very, pretty, not 等词修饰,但 almost 之前不能用这些词。如:

There are not nearly enough members present to hold a meeting. 出席的会员远没有达到可以开会的人数。

The shock of Pat's death pretty nearly killed Roy. 帕特的死几乎毁了罗伊。

They very nearly succeeded in blowing up the parliament building. 他们只差一点儿炸毁议会大厦。

4. 有时 almost 可表示十分相似(但又不完全相同),此时不用 nearly。如:

I almost wish I'd stayed at home. 我真有点后悔没在家里呆着。

Our cat understand everything—he's almost human. 我们这只猫什么都懂—— 快通人性了。

brain与brains的用法区别

名词brain用于本义时,意思是“脑,大脑”,用于比喻义时,表示“头脑”“智力”“智能”等。brain用于本义的用法比较简单,但用于比喻义时,可以是可数或不可数名词,使用时很容易出错,归纳以下几点,希望引起注意。

(1) 单独使用时,通常用复数形式。如:

He’s good-looking, and he’s got brains. 他长得好看,而且有头脑。

You need brains to become a university professor. 当大学教授要有才智。

注意,即使使用复数形式,仍表示单数意义(有的词典将brains看作是不可数名词);若用作主语,其后谓语通常要用单数。如:

Brains is more than just education. 有头脑不仅仅指受过教育。

注意,英语习惯上不说:He has brain.

(2) 受描绘性形容词修饰时,通常连用不定冠词。如:

She has an active brain. 她头脑灵活。

She has an excellent brain. 她很有头脑。

注意,英语习惯上不说:He has good brain.

(3) 连用物主代词时,用单数形式或复数形式均可。如:

Use your brain(s). 动动脑子吧。

My brain is too dull. 我的脑子太笨。

Where’s your brains? 你的脑子到哪里去了(即你怎么不动动脑子)?

(4) 受much, little修饰时,从理论上说应该用单数形式,但在实际运用中,有时也可用复数形式(因为brains习惯上被视为不可数名词)。如:

He hasn’t got much brain. 他没什么头脑。

He has very little brains. 他没什么头脑。

die of与die from有何区别

表示死的原因,其后通常接介词of或from, 其区别大致为:

(1) 若死因存在于人体之上或之内(主要指疾病、衰老等自身的原因),一般用介词 of。如:die of illness (heart trouble, cancer, a fever, etc) 死于疾病(心脏病、癌症、发烧等)

(2) 若死因不是存在人体之内或之上,而是由环境造成的(主要指事故等方面的外部原因),一般用介词 from。如:

die from an earthquake (a traffic accident, a lightning, a stroke, etc) 死于地震(交通事故、雷击等)

(3) 若死因是环境影响到体内,即两方面共有的原因,则可用 of, from 均可。如:

die of [from] a drink ( a wound, overwork, starvation, hunger and cold, etc) 死于饮酒(受伤、劳累过度、饥饿、饥寒等)

但是在实际运用中,两者混用的情况较多。

many、much、a lot of的用法区别

一、many、much、a lot of的用法

many意思是“很多”,与可数名词复数连用;

much意思是“很多”,与不可数名词连用。

a lot of既可与可数名词连用,也可与不可数名词连用。

它们在句中可作主语、宾语和定语等。

如:

I don't have many friends here.

在这里我没有很多的朋友

Many died in the bus accident.

许多人在公交车祸中丧失

There was a lot of mud on the ground.

地上有许多泥。

二、many、much、a lot of的区别

1)many和much的区别在于many + 可数名词,much + 不可数名词。

他离开多久了?

Many of the workers were at the meeting.

花许多时间在学习上。

He has many friends, but few true ones.

他有许多朋友,但靠谱的却没几个。

There hasn't been much good weather recently.

最近都不是什么好天气。

2)a lot of(=lots of)和many、much区别在于它们只能用在肯定句中,而many,much不受限制。

如果将一个含有a lot of(=lots of)的肯定句改为否定句或疑问句,要将它们改为many或much。

如:

We can see a lot of birds in the tree.

We can't see many birds in the tree.

我们在树上看不到很多鸟儿。
