persuade sb. to do sth.意为“说服某人做某事”,强调劝说成功,说服;advise sb. to do sth. 意为“劝说某人做某事”,不涉及劝说是否有效,相当于try to persuade sb. to do sth.。如:
The doctor persuaded my father to give up smoking.医生说服我爸爸戒了烟。
The doctor advised my father to give up smoking, but failed.
医生劝我爸爸戒烟,但没成功。 advise; suggest
advise 与suggest 都可作“建议”讲,二者用法有同有异。
(1)相同点表示建议做某事,advise与suggest都可采用下列三种句型: ① + 名词 ② + 动名词
③ + that从句(从句中常用should加动词原形,should可以省略。)
eg. He advised/ suggested an early start. He advised/ suggested (our) starting early.
He advised/ suggested that we (should) start early. (注:只要是用从句表示建议该做的事,从句中就可用“should+动词原形”,should可以省略。)上面的第三句可转化为:
It was suggested that we (should) start early.
What he suggested was that we(should) start early. His suggestion was that we (should) start early. (2)不同点
①advise后可以跟人称代词作宾语,而suggest后不可以跟人称代词作宾语。故可以说:
advise sb. to do sth.; advise sb. against (doing) sth.; advise sb. on/ about sth.; suggest(to sb.)that...
前三种结构中不可将advise改为suggest,如: 他建议我们去参观博物馆。
[正]He advised us to go to visit the museum. [误]He suggested us to go to visit the museum.
[误]He suggested us that we go to visit the museum. ②suggest还有“暗示、表明、说、指出(一个事实)”的意思。此时从句中用陈述语气,不用虚拟语气。如:
The smile on his face suggested that he was pleased. Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the patient was seriously ill.(句中suggest陈述了一个事实,故用陈述语气。)比较:
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the Patient be
operated on at once.(句中suggest表示建议该做某事,从句中用should加动词原形,should在从句中省略。)
affect(=have an effect on sth.)vt.影响(effect n.影响)
This may affect your health. 这或许会影响你的健康。
My throat is always affected by bad weather.我的嗓子总是受恶劣天气的影响。 afraid
1)“be afraid of+名词”,意为“害怕”。 2)“be afraid of doing sth”意为“担心,害怕„„”。 3)“be afraid for„”意为“为„„担心。” 4)“be afraid that„”意为“担心,恐怕”。 5)“be afraid to do ”意为“害怕,担心而不敢做某事”。
6)I’m afraid so/not.恐怕是这样/恐怕不会这样 [应用]完成句子

_____snakes.

apologize是不及物动词,意为“道歉”,其表达式为“apologize to sb.for sth.”。如:

②It appears that he will the prize.看来他会得笑。 appear;seem;look

(1)appear强调外表给人的印象,有时含实质上并非如此的意思,如:
He appears to know more than he really does。他看起来好像懂得很多。(其实懂得没有那么多)

He doesn’t look his age.他看起来比实际年龄年轻(或老成)。 从用法上讲:

She looks like her mother.
It looks as if we are going to miss the train.„”讲时,可接形容词、过去分词、名词、介词短语 area; district

This is a less developed area.这是个欠发达地区。 Most of the large land areas are connected.多数大块陆地是相连的。

complete, finish
二个词都有“完成”之意,但complete更突出使一切完备、没有欠缺、多指完成工程、设计等。而finish是一般用语。常用短语有:complete the work完成工作;complete the new railway 修完铁路;complete one’s collection of stamps完备集邮;finish one’s homework/middle school/writing the article 完成作业/中学毕业/写完文章。
注意:complete还可用作形容词,意为“完全的,彻底的、完成了的”。completely 是副词,“完全地、彻底地”。如:a complete sentence/strange/success/failure完整的句子/完全陌生/完全成功/彻底的失败。This job is completely new to me.这项工作对我来说是完全陌生的。 [应用]单句改错
①You have to finish to read the whole passage in five minutes.
②Professor Smith has been complete successful in working out the problem.
Key:①改to read为reading,因为finish后只能接动名词。②改complete为completely。 congratulate v. 祝贺,庆贺
常用短语:congratulate sb. on / upon sth. / doing sth.为某事向某人祝贺
congratulate oneself that„因„„而自己庆幸 congratulations常用于祝贺语,后可接on,也可单独用。
I‘d like to congratulate you on your success. 对你的成功我表示祝贺。
I’d like to offer my congratulations on your success. 对你的成功我表示祝贺。
You really should congratulate yourself on your appearance.
(= You really should congratulate that you are so handsome.) 你真该为自己的外表而庆幸。 对比:celebrate sth.庆贺某事
We’ll celebrate the New Year with a dance party. 我们将举行跳舞晚会以庆贺新年。
拓展:in celebration of„庆祝„„ hold a celebration举行庆祝(会) congratulate, congratulations
①congratulate是动词,作“祝贺、庆祝”解时,必须以被祝贺的人作宾语,构成:congratulate sb. on sth./doing sth.表示“祝贺某人„„”。另外:congratulate oneself表示“庆幸,感到幸运”。如: We congratulated him on his success/his having succeeded.
我们祝贺他的成功。
I congratulated myself on having escaped unhurt. 我因自己幸免于难而感到幸运。 ②congratulation是名词,多用作复数形式。注意下列用法:
Congratulations!(单独使用)祝贺你!
Congratulations on your success对你的成功我表示祝贺。

consider用法小结
consider是个很常用的动词,其意义不同,句型结构也不同。我们在学习中要特别注意。
(1)作“仔细考虑、深思熟虑”解,consider可作不及物动词或及物动词。
作及动词时,后可接名词、代词、动名词作宾语,不能接动词不定式,但可以接疑问词+不定式,相当于宾语从句。例如:
Consider carefully before you decide.你要慎重考虑后再做决定。
They considered your suggestion.他们仔细考虑了你的建议。
He is considering studying abroad.他在考虑出国留学。
We are considering how to help them.我们在考虑如何帮助他们。
(2)作“将„„视为、认为、以为”解。
①可用consider+名词+(to be)名词(形容词)或consider+名词+as+名词(形容词)结构,但当不定式为行为动词时,不能省略,不可用于进行时。这样用时相当于that引导宾语从句。例如:
He considers himself(to be)clever(=as clever).=He considers that he is clever.他认为自己很聪明。 I consider him(to be)my closest friend(as my closest friend).=I consider(that)he is my closest friend.我把他视为我最亲密的朋友。
He is considered to have invented the first computer.他被认为是最早发明计算机的人。
②还可用于consider+it(形式宾语)+形容词+不定式结构。例如:
I consider it wrong for students to smoke.我认为学生抽烟是不对的。 consider的用法:①You should consider the question.你应该考虑这个问题。 ②跟从句
He began to consider when he would get married他开始考虑什么时侯结婚的事情。 ③跟疑问词 + to do sth.
He is considering how to get there in time.他正想怎么能及时赶到那儿。 ④跟动名词
Who considers answering the question?谁正在考虑回答这个问题? ⑤为„„着想
He always considers others before himself他常先为别人着想。
⑥名词为:consideration(不可数)
take sth. into consideration把„„考虑在内 If you want to go on holidays in Beijing,you should take the cost into consideration.
如果想到北京去度假,你应该考虑费用问题。 content
(1)n.内容;目录
He always reads the contents of a book first of all.他读书总是先从目录看起。 (2)adj.满足的;甘心的
Are you content with your work?你对你的工作满意吗?
(3)vt.使(某人)满足。

三者含义相近,但用法不同: (1)create“创造、创作”,指产生出新的东西,其对象往往是精神上的,如艺术、文学作品中的人物及新的科学领域等。例如:
Shakespeare created many famous characters.莎士比亚创造了许多有名的人物。 (2)invent“发明”,指创造出原来自然界不存在的东西,如工具、方法、手段、灯泡、汽车、电视、合成材料等。例如:
who invented the telephone?谁发明了电话?
He invented a new teaching method.他发明了一种的教学方法。
(3)discover指“发现或找到”某种自然界本来已存在,但以前未被人类发现或认识的事物,如发现元素、电、煤、石油、铁等矿藏以及新星、星系或科学真理等。例如:
I discovered an unopened letter in the drawer.我在抽屉里发现了一封未拆的信。
crowd
crowd 可用作名词,表示“人群,群”;用作动词,表示“群集,拥挤”。如:
a crowd of children一群孩子;crowds of books 成堆的书;a cheering crowd 欢呼的人群;crowd into 挤进;crowd in 拥入;crowd round围在„„的周围;a crowded city/train拥挤的城市/火车;be crowded with 挤满、塞满 [应用]汉译英

1)二者都可表示“对付,应付,处理,安排”,但deal是不及物动词,可与how连用;而do是及物动词,只与what连用表示上述意义,不能单独使用。对比:We don’t know what to do with the waste materials./We don’t know how to deal with the waste materials.

(此句中的deal with不可替换成do with) 2)deal with还可表示“论述,涉及到;与„„相处”等意义,而do with 无此用法。如:
