1.We can advertise on the internel.我們可以在網(wǎng)上登廣告。
句中advertise是不及物動詞,意思是“登廣告、做廣告”,常和介詞for連用。例如:
They are advertising for a new teacher.他們在登廣告招聘新教師。
advertise也作及物動詞,意為“為……登廣告、為……做廣告”。例如:
We have advertised the charity show in the newspaper.我們已在報紙上為慈善演出做了廣告。
[相關(guān)鏈接]advertlsement是advertise的名詞形式,在口語中??蓪懗蒩d或advert。
2.In the beginning,I thought I would never be able to remember all the words…剛開始,我覺得怎么也不能記住所有的臺詞。
in the beginning意為“起初、開始的時候”,用作連接性副詞,后面通常不跟介詞短語,相當(dāng)于at first。例如:
In the beginning,some of us were not interested in English.起初我們中有些人對英語不感興趣。
[相關(guān)鏈接]at the beginning和in the beginning意思差不多,但at the beginning的后面可跟of引導(dǎo)的介詞短語,意為“在……之初”、“在……開始的時候”,與at the end of相對應(yīng)。例如:
Nick spoke at the beginning of the meeting.會議開始的時候尼克發(fā)了言。
3.Everything seemed to happen so fast and now it is all over.一切似乎都發(fā)生得那么快,現(xiàn)在全結(jié)束了。
seem意為“似乎、好像”,是系動詞,后面跟形容詞、名詞、介詞短語,也可跟不定式。如果不定式是to be加形容詞,則to be有時可省去。如:
He seems(to be)quite happy.他似乎很開心。
It seems like years since I last saw you.從上次跟你見面后,好像有好多年沒有見到你了。
[相關(guān)鏈接)It seems/seemed that…是其常見句型,可與seem(s)/seemed to do…轉(zhuǎn)換。例如:He seems to have a lot of money.=It seems that has a lot of money.他好像很有錢。
4.Ill phone my cousin,Ricky.我將給我的堂弟打電話,里基。
這里phone作及物動詞,意思是“給某人打電話”。例如:
Tell her to phone me at five oclock。告訴她五點鐘給我打電話。
[相關(guān)鏈接)1)phone也可作名詞,意思是“電話、電活機(jī)”,常用短語有on the phone(在通話中),answer the phone(接電話),hang up the phone(掛斷電話)等。
2)英語中表示“給某人打電話”的短語還有call sb.(up),ring sb.(uP),give sb.aring,make a telephone call to sb.等。
5.It does not matter that we do not have pop stars in our show.慈善演出中我們沒有流行明星也沒關(guān)系。
這里matter作不及物動詞,意為“要緊、有關(guān)系”。它常用于it doesnt matter句型中,后面可跟that從句、wh-詞引導(dǎo)的從句或if條件句。例如:
It doesnt matter if you are late.你如果遲到也沒關(guān)系。
It doesnt matter that the tie and the suit dont match.領(lǐng)帶和西裝不配也沒關(guān)系。
[相關(guān)鏈接]It doesnt matter.也常用于對話中,用來回答對方的歉辭,意為“沒關(guān)系”、“不要緊”。
6.The host came on stage with a microphone in her hand.主持人來到舞臺上,手里拿著一個話筒。
with a microphone in her hand是由“with+賓語+賓語補(bǔ)足語”構(gòu)成的一種結(jié)構(gòu),充當(dāng)with這個介詞的賓語的,通常是名詞和代詞;構(gòu)成賓語補(bǔ)足語的可以是介詞短語、副詞、過去分詞等。例如:
With the meeting over,we all went home.(副詞作賓補(bǔ))會議結(jié)束了,我們都回家了。
His wife came down the stairs,with their baby in her arms.(介詞短語作賓補(bǔ))他妻子從樓上下來,懷里抱著他們的嬰兒。
這種結(jié)構(gòu)在句中主要作狀語,表示伴隨狀況、行為方式、原因、條件、時間及結(jié)果、程度等。它也可在句中作定語。例如:
The boy with a hat on his head is my brother.(作定語)頭上戴帽子的男孩是我弟弟。
Dont speak with your mouth full.(作狀語)不要滿嘴食物地說話。
