【重点知识】

used to do sth 意为“过去常常做某事”,特指在过去经常发生的动作,而现在已不再发生,

be used to do sth 表示“被用于做某事”,是被动结构,强调主语是动词use的承受者。

be used to doing sth意为“习惯于做某事”,其中to是介词,后须接名词或动词-ing形式。

3. dare敢于;胆敢;可以作实义动词,也可以作情态动词。

(1)实义动词dare+动词不定式to do I dare to swim across the river/I don't dare to say that.

注意:dare作情态动词时主要用于疑问句,否定句和条件从句中,不用于肯定句(只有一个例外—I dare say,但那是一个固定短语,意思是“我相信, 可能, 我想是这样”)。

(3)在否定句或疑问句中,现代英语口语常用实义动词的dare,但省略后面的to,直接接动词原形。

4. give up 放弃。后接动词-ing形式或名词,后接代词作宾语时,代词应放在give和up之间。

give in 屈服,让步;give back归还;give away分发,赠送;give sb a hand 帮某人的忙

5. Candy told me that she used to be really shy and took up singing to deal with her shyness.

(1)take up: 开始从事

Jack took up running for exercise to lose weight this month 杰克这个月在跑步锻炼来减肥。

(2) 占,占地方 That big table takes up too much room. 那张大桌子占的地方太大了。

6. deal with “对付”、“应付”

do with常与连接代词 what 连用,而 deal with 常与连接副词 how 连用

I don’t know how they deal with the problem . = I don‘t know what they do with the problem .

我不知道他们如何处理这个问题。

7. Only a very small number of people make it to the top.只有少量的人才成功地到达顶峰。

a small number of 意为:“少量的,为数不多的”。

Make it意为“办成,做到;成功”;用来表示达到预定目标。

9. waste (v.)浪费;滥用.作动词,表示浪费时间、精力、财力和物力等,常接名词作宾语。

另外waste还可用于waste sth on sth/sb和waste sth (in) doing sth结构。

10. not…any longer 意为“不再”,常可与no longer 替换,多指过去持续的动作或存在的状态现在已不能再继续下去,侧重指时间上不再延长。I can’t wait for you any longer.=I can’t no longer wait for you.

我不能再等到你了。

not…any more也意为“不再”,可与no more替换,多指再也不重复过去反复做或发生的具体动作。The baby

didn’t cry any more.=The baby no more cried. 那个婴儿不再哭了。
