近义短语的用法与区别
1. again and again & over and over一次又一次,反复
异同之处:again and again和over and over意思是“一次又一次,再次”,在句中作状语修饰动词,表示动作的重复性。同义短语还有over and over again, time and again。
例1:Its bike prices have to be lowered again and again. (12月四级)
其自行车的价格不得不一次次地下降。
结构分析:Its bike prices是主语,have to be lowered是谓语(被动语态), again and again是状语。
例2:The black driver played the same songs in his car over and over.
黑人司机在车里一遍又一遍地放着同样的歌曲。
结构分析:The black driver是主语,played是谓语(play 的过去式),the same songs是宾语,in his car是地点状语, over and over是状语。
2. all day & all day long整天
异同之处:all day和all day long都表示“一整天,全天”,在句中作时间状语,修饰动词,同义短语还有all the day。
例1:All she does is staying in her room all day. (6月四级)
她所做的一切就是整天待在房间里。
语法点:“all+sb do/does/did”结构可用在句首作主语,谓语动词一般用单数。
例2:And giving small children sweet drinks or bottles of fake juice all day longis nothing less than child abuse. (12月四级)
整天给小孩子喝甜饮料或者瓶装的假果汁无异于虐待儿童。
作业动词短语:arrive in & get to到达异同之处:arrive in和getto后面要跟具体的地点。需要注意的是arrive at也可以表示“到达”,它与arrive in的区别在于,arrive in后面跟大一点的地方,如国家、城市,而arrive at后面跟很小的场所,如饭店、广场。
例1:In early 1994, when Mark Andreessen was just 23 years old, he arrived in Silicon Valley with anidea that would change the world. (6月四级)
例2:Will it take me long to get to the museum that opens to the public recently? (12月六级)
