初中英语重点词组巧记忆

1.pull a face/make a face做鬼脸

可能在做鬼脸的时候通常会拉脸,所以就用了pull这个单词,这样想可以帮助记忆。

【例句】Peter pulled/made a face when he was photographed.彼得在拍照时做了一个鬼脸。

【注意】这个词组形式是可以改变的,比如许多人做鬼脸时,可以改为make faces,做那种鬼脸可以表达为make that face.

2.in fact事实上、实际上

这个词组相信大部分同学都是非常熟悉的,不过不要着急,今天在节目中,我会告诉大家它的升级版。

【例句】

I thought I was going to be late, but in fact I was early.

我本以为我要迟到了,但事实上我早到了。

In fact, the lecture was very interesting.

事实上,讲座非常有趣。

那位老人病倒了,所有都担心他可能会死。

So many people have fallen ill with flu that the office is almost empty.

那么多人感冒病倒了,以至于办公室几乎没人了。

5.fall in love爱上

这个词组不单单用来说明“爱上某人”,还可以是“爱上某物”。中文中常说“坠入爱河”是不是和fall这个词特别搭配呢?

王子爱上了这个女孩,并向她求婚。

If you fall in love with silk or velvet, use it on decorative pillows.

【例句】

Peter is crying because his favourite toy has fallen to pieces.

彼得大哭,因为他最喜欢的玩具摔坏了(这里是意译)。

I have used this bag so much that it's falling to pieces.

这个词组中最需要注意的就是介词with

You should be familiar with how it works so you know what to expect.

你应当熟悉它是如何工作的,以了解会发生些什么。

8.out of fashion不再时尚

这个词组很好记的,字面意思为“在时尚外面”,当然就是“不再时尚”的意思咯。我们也常常说你out啦,是差不多的意思。

【例句】

不,没有戴那样的帽子了。他们完完全全是过时了的。

9.do sb a favour 帮助某人

这个词组不论在口语还是书面语中都是高频词汇了!如果你只会用help这个词,那你太out了!赶紧来学.这个词组的字面意思就是“给谁一个恩惠,为谁做一个善举”。

【注意】这里like是介词,所以后跟名词或动名词

——我能用你的牙膏吗?——尽管用。

Feel free to use my toothpaste. 我的牙膏你随便用。

【注意】大家看例句,是不是已经注意到了,我们可以说feel free to do sth.

13.find fault with 挑剔、找……岔子

You find fault with something or someone when you criticize them.

with后面可以跟sth,也可以跟sb.fault是错误的意思,所以字面意思就是“挑错”。

【例句】

她总是挑剔我的厨艺。

Try not to find fault with everything he does—it makes him feel worthless.

不要对他所做的事都挑剔,这让他觉得自己很没用。

take care of意为“照顾”,“照料”,侧重于负有责任这一层意思,后面的宾语从句可以是人,也可以是某物,比较口语化。Please take care of my house.请照看一下我的家。

but 用于"除了"之意时,只能用于 no one, nobody, nothing, all, everyone, everything 等词之后。

except for的用法是在说明基本情况后,而在细节上加以纠正。except for 有时可以与 except 互换,表示"除了……之外",但位于句首时,不可以和 except 互换。例如:

Your composition is good except for some spelling mistakes .除了有几个拼写错误之外,你的作文很好。

besides 意为"除了……之外,还有" except 意为"除了……之外", but 用于"除了"之意时,只能用于 no one, nobody, nothing, all, everyone, everything 等词之后。

78.have sb.do,have sb. or sth. doing,have sth. done

have sb.do 作"使某人做某事"解,have 后作宾语补足的不定式通常不带 to。

have sb./sth.doing 与 have sb.do的意思大致相同,只是现在分词作宾补强调动作在进行,而不定式作宾补只表示发生了某件事。试比较下面两个句子:The boss had his workers working all day long.那老板让工人们整天(不停地)干活。The boss had his workers work fourteen hours a day.那老板让工人们一天干14小时的活。在 have sb.or sth.doing 结构中,have 如被否定,往往作“允许”、“容忍”解。如:I won't have you saying such things.我不允许你讲这样的话。

have sth.done作“(有意识地)让别人替自己做某事”解,过去分词表示的动作赏由别人完成,宾语是过去分词所表示地动作的承受者。还可批无意识的被动行为,have 作“受到、遭受”解。如:I had my pen stolen.我的钢笔被人偷了。
