Unit 2 易混詞語辨析

---

作者:杜賢萬

1. either;each;every

either表示“每個”,是指“兩者之一”。如:There are many trees on either side of the river. 在河的兩旁都種有許多樹。

each和every這兩個詞也都有“每個”的意義。each強調“各別;各個”,而every 強調“全部;都”。如:He gave each boy an apple. 他給每個男孩一個蘋果。The sun shines every day. 每天都是陽光燦爛。

另外,every只能用作形容詞, 因此只有在與名詞連用或構成複合詞時, 才能用作主語或賓語;而each可用作形容詞, 也可用作代詞, 直接作主語或賓語。 如: Each of them wants to try.他們每人都想試一試。

2.except;besides

except意爲“除……之外(不再有)”, 而besides意爲“除……之外(還有)”。如:We all agreed except Tom. 除湯姆之外,我們都同意。(除了湯姆外,其他人都同意)We all agreed besides him. 除他同意之外,我們也都同意。(不僅他同意,其他人也同意)

3.surprise;amaze

surprise和amaze作動詞,都有“使吃驚”的意思。surprise 是通用詞,它的含義是使人一愣。表示“出乎意外地驚異”。 如: We were surprised at finding the house empty. 我們驚訝地發現房子是空的。

amaze 所表示的吃驚中包含着使人迷惑不解、困窘或驚疑不定。如:Scientists have been amazed to find that it can cut through the hardest rock with great ease. 科學家們驚詫地發現,它可以輕而易舉地鑽穿最堅硬的岩石。

4.pay for;cost;spend;take

pay for意爲“爲……付錢”。如:He paid £5 for the book. 他買這本書花了五英鎊。

cost表示“花費(金錢, 時間)”,主語必須是物。如:That suit costs me £6. 那件上衣花掉我6英鎊。

spend表示“花費”,主語必須是人,可以用指花費錢、時間、精力等。其後接on sth.或(in)doing sth.。如:He spent a lot of money on books. 他花了許多錢買書。

take表示“花費(錢或時間)”,主語應是不定式,可以用it作形式主語代替。如:It takes a lot of money to buy a house. 買一所房子要花一大筆錢。
