crowd / group / team

初中英语常见的短语及意思

Ⅰ. group “小组、团体”,与 team 是同义词。指因任何目的或原因而聚集在一起所形成的群体。搭配范围较广;

team 指工作、行为或游戏时在一起的群体,尤指体育比赛的“队”, 搭配范围较窄。如:

①a study group 学习小组; a discussion group 讨论小组

②a basketball team 篮球队 a medical team 医疗队

Ⅱ. group 指“人群”时,与crowd同义。group 所指人数可多可少,但常指“较小”的人群, 且表示有组织有秩序的一群人;

crowd有“密集”“拥挤”的含义,通常指未经组织、人数众多的人群。

by oneself/ for oneself/ to oneself/ of oneself

这五个介词短语均属“介词+反身代词”结构,但意义各不相同:

Ⅰ oneself“单独地;独立地”(=without help, alone).如:

Did you do this by yourself or did someone help you?

是你自己做的,还是别人帮你做的'?

Ⅱ. “本身;本身的性质”如:

①Diamond is hard in itself. 钻石本来是硬的。

Ⅲ oneself “为自己(的利益而做某事);独自地(与by oneself 同义)”。如:

②He has built a house for himself. 他为自己建造了一幢房子。

③You must find it out for yourself. 你必须自己把它找出来。

Ⅳ oneself “自然而然地;自动地”为不及物动词。如:

④The fire died of oneself. 火自己熄灭了。

Ⅴ oneself“默默地”“暗自”,常与talk , say, think等动词连用。如;

⑤He said to himself that there was something wrong. 他想这其中有毛病。

[注]:say to oneself “在心里想”,talk/ speak to oneself“自言自语”两者不可混淆。

another/ other/ more

Ⅰ. 名词前表示具有增加意义的“还、再”,一般用 more 和 another. more放在数词之后,而 another 放在数词之前;有时也可以用 other, 但other具有“不同”之意。保留它本意“别的”。如:

① one more thing, one other thing, another thing都表示“还有一件事”之意,如:

② I want three more / other books. = I want another three books.我还要三本书

③ I stayed there three more days. = I stayed there another three days.

我在那儿又呆了三天。(这里不用other, 因day与day没有不同之意。

④ We need three more / another three hands to do the job.

我们还需要三个人做这项工作。 (这里不用other , 因不强调人与人的不同。)

⑤ He works on the Great Green Wall with many other people.

他与别的许多人一块在绿色长城上工作。( other 没有增加之意,表除自己以外的别的人。)
