中学生英语学习常见错误一览表?3
详细内容
es to America almost each month.?
[正] The manager es to America almost every month.?
[析] each与every都作形容词讲时,都有"每个"之意,但有不同。each多指个体,而every则多指整体。如:We want every student to sueed. each不同来表达总体概念,所以不能与almost, nearly, likely等词连用。?
[误] We each has a book.?
[正] We each have a book.?
[析] each 作同位语时,其数应与其同位的名词相同,而each作主语时则应取其单数形式。 ?
each other one another ?
each other与one another这两个词组的区别在很多语法书中强调each other是两者之间,而one another是多者之间,其实不然,如:All students must care for each other, must love and help each other. 事实上这两个词组是同义的,如果要讲有什么区别的话,当我们非常笼统地谈,而不特指什么人时,多用one another.?
early ?
[误] Could you e here more early??
[正] Could you e here earlier??
[析] 单音节和少数双音节副词的比较级和最高级要用?er和?est来作其结尾,如fast, soon, early, hard, long, near等。?
earth ?
[误] What on the earth do you mean??
[正] What on earth do you mean??
[析] on earth这一词组在句中为的是加强语气,其意为"究竟"、"到底"。而作为"地球"讲时则要加定冠词,如:How far is the earth from the moon. 而作为"泥土"讲时则为不可数名词,如:He filled the pot with earth and wanted to plant some flowers.?
easy ?
[误] You can easy imagine my surprise.?
[正] You can easily imagine my surprise.?
[析] easy只在有限的词组中被用作副词,如take it easy (不要紧张),go easy, stand easy等。 例如:Easy e, easy go. (钱来的容易花的也快. )Easier said than done. (说的容易做着难。) ?
east ?
[误] Japan is on the east of China.?
[正] Japan is to the east of China.?
[析] 在讲述地理位置时,有3个介词常用,它们是in, on和to, 其中in表示处于所表达的范围之内,如:Shanghai is in the east of China. on则表示双方接壤,如:North Korea is on the northeast of China. 而表示互不相接的两部分时则用to, 如:Taiwan is to the east of Fujian.?
either ?
[误] -I don't like opera.
?-I don't like too. ?
[正] -I don't like opera.
?-I don't like either. ?
[析] 在否定句中用either表示"也",而在肯定句中用too表示"也"。?
[误] Either you or I are right.?
[正] Either you or I am right.?
[析] 这在语法书中被称作就近原则,即哪个主语离谓语动词近,则应采用与哪个主语相一致的谓语动词,相同用法的还有neither…nor…,not only…but also…,以及or在连接两个主语时。如:You or he is to go home. The others will have to stay in the classroom.?
elder ?
[误] My older brother has gone to Shanghai.?
[正] My elder brother has gone to Shanghai.?
[析] 在表示兄姐的长幼时应用elder表示"哥哥姐姐",如:my elder sister 姐姐,但表示岁数时则多用older,如:She is two years older than I.?
empty ?
[误] Are these seats empty??
[正] Are these seats taken??
[析] empty是指空洞的没有任何物体,如:The house was empty, 其意思是没有任何家具或屋内无人。但座位是否有人坐应用take.?

[误] My sister studied English language very well.?
[正] My sister studied the English language very well.?
[正] My sister studied English very well.?
[析] 在泛指某一种学科时,不应加冠词,如:I like history.但如特指某一门学科时则应加冠词,如:He likes the history of America.?
enjoy ?
[误] I enjoy to play football.?
[正] I enjoy playing football.?
[析] enjoy后要接动名词,而不接不定式。?
[误] Did you enjoy at the English evening??
[正] Did you enjoy yourself at the English evening??
enough ?
[误] I'm sorry. You are not studying enough carefully.?

[正] Do you have enough money??
[正] Do you have enough of the money??
[误] The coffee isn't enough.?
[正] There isn't enough coffee.?
[析] enough可以作be动词的表语,但其主语应是代词,如:That's enough. It was ?enough.? 如果是名词时应换用上面的句型。?
entrance ?
[误] The entrance of the cinema is on your right.?
[正] The entrance to the cinema is on your right.?
[析] 在表示通往某处时entrance后面多用to作介词。这样的用法还有key to the door, answer to the question等。?
evening ?

[正] I walked home on a cold evening.?
[析] in the evening这一词组如加上另外的修饰词则其介词应换为on.?
everyone ?
[误] Everyone of you goes to class.?
[正] Every one of you goes to class.?
[析] everyone其后不能接of结构。在否定句中如果要讲"每一个人都没有注意到它",就译作:Nobody noticed it. 要注意Every one of us is not right. 应译为"我们不都对。"而None of us are right. 才应译为"我们全错了。"?
exam ?
[误] We take part in an exam.?
[正] We take an exam.?

[析] 在同一类物体中排除某一部分用except, 在不同类物体中排除某一物体时用except for。而except that其后接从句,如:She is a good girl except that she is careless sometimes. ?而besides则是"包括在内",如"我学习英语同时还学法语。"应译为:I study English besides French.?
exercise ?
[误] The students exercise spoken English in the morning.?

[析] exercise多指运动、训练,而practise则多指把理论付诸于实践的练习。?
[误] Everyone should do exercises every day.?

[正] I'm sorry I have to go. Tom's family are waiting for me.?

far ?
[误] My school is ten miles far from here.?
[正] My school is ten miles away from here.?
[析] far一般不与实际距离连用。?
[误] "Did you walk far?"
?"Yes,I walked far." ?
[正] "Did you walk far?"
?"Yes, I walked a long way." ?
[析] 一般肯定句中不用far单独作状语,而用a long way.far组成的常用词组有:as far as. ①远至,一直到。如:He walked as far as the station. ②就……而言。如:As far as he was concerned these books were very good. ③只要。如:I can help you as far as I can.? so for到目前为止。例:He is very well so far.?
farther further ?
far有两个比较级,即farther和further,其意思略有不同:farther主要用于表示距离的远近,如:Milan is farther away than Rome. 而further则是指"进一步的",如:Will we need any further discussion on this matter.?
fast ?
[误] A fast train runs fastly.?
[正] A fast train runs fast.?

feel ?
[误] I feel badly about my mistakes.?

fill full ?
fill是动词,但有及物与不及物两种用法,当表示"充满"之意时是不及物动词,应用fill with,如:The little girl's eyes filled with tears. 而当表示"使……装满某物"时,是及物动词,如:He filled his pocket with books. 而be filled with应看作系表结构,如:The boy's mother was filled with anger. full是形容词,要用be full of这一词组,如:The boy was full of joy.?
find ?
[误] He has finded his lost bike.?
[正] He has found his lost bike.?
[析] find是不规则动词,其过去式和过去分词均是found。但found一词又意为"建立",它是规则动词,其过去式及过去分词均为founded.?
[误] It is very difficult to look for a suitable job.?
[正] It is very difficult to find a suitable job.?
[析] look for为"寻找",而find是找到。寻找工作并不难,难的应是找到合适的工作。?
find find out ?
find out意为"找出、算出、发现",如:I have found out how to do it. 而find的主要侧重点在找到某物,如:I find my book under the desk.?
finish ?
[误] I finished to read that book last night.?
[正] I finished reading that book last night.?
[析] 英文中有些动词其后只能用动名词作宾语而不能用不定式作宾语,这样的动词在中考范围内有两个,即finish和enjoy。?
fire ?
[误] There's no smoke without a fire.?
[正] There's no smoke without fire.?
[析] 此句应译为中文"无风不起浪"。fire作为物质名词"火"讲时为不可数名词,而作为"炉火"、"火灾"讲则是可数名词,如:There was a fire in the next street last month. 如要讲"着火了"要用be on fire, 如:The factory was
on fire.?
[误] The man fired to us.?
[正] The man fired at us.?
[析] fire (on) at均指"向某目标开火",at用于较小目标,而on用于较大目标。?
first ?
[误] Is this your firstly visit to Beijing??
[正] Is this your first visit to Beijing??
[析] 除了在强调第一、第二、第三等场合中有时还可见firstly一词外,这个词已不多见,而均被first取代。first还有"首先"、"首次"、"第一次"之意。
?
follow ?
[误] I received a letter which ran as follow.?
[正] I received a letter which ran as follows.?
[析] as follows是惯用法,其意为"如下",不论在任何场合均要用follows.?
[误] As follows are his arguments.?

[析] 用不定式来表示动作的目的。?
[误] I will leave Beijing to Shanghai.?

[正] I will leave for Shanghai.?
[析] leave for为一固定搭配,不要改动。?
[误] I bought a book to you.?

[析] for作为"因为"讲时一般不要置于句首,而且口气也比because弱的多。?
fet ?
[误] I left my key.?
[正] I left my key at home.?
[正] I fot my key.?
[析] leave是"丢下"之意,所以一定要接地点状语,而fet是"忘记",所以不用接地点状语。?
[误] I will not fet the rules.?
[正] I will never fet the rules.?
[误] Please don't fet posting my letter on your way home.?
[正] Please don't fet to post my letter on your way home.?
[析] 要注意fet to do something为"忘了去作某事",而fet doing something则应译为"对已经作过的事记不起来了"。如:He fet returning the book to the library. 应译为"他忘记已把书还给图书馆这件事了。"同样用法的词还有remember和regret.?
free ?
[误] You can speak free in front of my parents.?

?
friend ?
[误] He nodded to me friendly.?

[析] friendly是形容词,不是副词。在英语中应避免讲He is a friend of my mother. 又比如:I go to school with my friend. 从语法上讲是对的但不是习惯上英语的说法。而应讲He is a friend of my mother's. I go to school with a friend. be friends with 则是"交朋友"之意,例如:I hope you will be friends with me. 而不应讲I hope you will be my friend. 交朋友还有一惯用法是make friends.?

[误] Where do you e from??I e from the library. ?
[正] Where do you e from??I e from England. ?
[正] Where did you e from??I came from the library. ?
[析] Where do you e from?应意为"你是从什么国家(地方)来的?"(即意为"你是哪的人?")而Where did you e from? 才是"你刚刚从哪来?"?
front ?
[误] There are three tall trees in the front of my house.?
[正] There are three tall trees in front of my house.?

[正] The old teacher has two pairs of big glasses.?
[析] glass作为"眼镜"讲,应用复数形式,在英语中手套gloves 裤子pants,剪刀scissors均用复数形式。glass作"玻璃杯"讲时则可用单数形式或复数形式,如:I want two glasses of milk. 而作为物质名词"玻璃"讲则要用作不可数名词,如:The boy broke two panes of glass.?
go ?
[误] -Mary, could you e to my home now??-Yes, I'm going. ?
[正] -Mary, could you e to my home now??

[析] go是指离开说话人所在地,而e指的是朝向说话人的方向:如:e here!Can I e and help you?但在口语中也有一些例外,如表示要参加到某人或者某件活动时常用e, 如:We are going to have a party tonight. Would you like to e with us??
gone been ?

He has been to Shanghai. 指此人去过上海现已回来了。?
gold ?
[误] She brushed her gold hair carefully.?

[误] You have better hurry.?
[正] You had better hurry.?
[析] had better只用过去时had,不要误用成现在时have。?
[误] You hadn't better worry.?
[正] You had better not worry.?
[析] had better后面加不带to的不定式,其否定式是"had better not+动词原形"。?
half ?
[误] I had driven about half mile.?
[正] I had driven about half a mile.?
[析] "半小时"有两种讲法half an hour, a half hour. 而"一个半小时"应讲an hour and a half或one and a half hours."半天"应讲half a day,"半镑"应讲half a pound.但要尽量避免使用half a year,而应用six months;不用half a month, 而用two weeks或fifteen days.?
[误] Half us could go to the park.?
[正] Half of us could go to the park.?
[析] half用于名词前可用of结构也可不用of结构,但用于代词前则必须加of。如:More than half (of) my classmates are boys.?
[误] One and half apples are left on the table.?
[正] One and half apples is left on the table.?
[析] 一个半one and half后面的名词要用复数,而句中的谓语动词却要用单数。?
[误] Half of the work are done.?
[正] Half of the work is done.?
[误] Half of the six apples is red.?
[正] Half of the six apples are red.?
[析] "half of+名词"这一结构后面的谓语动词应与of后面的名词相一致,如为不可数名词或可数名词单数,要用单数谓语动词;而复数名词后面要加与复数相对应的谓语动词。?
hand ?
[误] He shook hand with his teacher.?
[正] He shook hands with his teacher.?
[析] 与某人握手要用shake hands. 与hand有关的词组中有很多要用复数形式,如:change hands (转手、易手),in the hands of (由……控制),join hands (与人合作)。?
happen ?
[误] What was happened to you last month??
[正] What happened to you last month??
[误] An aident was happened in this street last night.?
[正] An aident happened in this street last night.?
[析] 在英语中不及物动词没有被动态,作为"发生"讲的happen,take place和break out都不具有被动态。happen to常用来表达一件偶然发生的事,如:If you happen to meet my sister please ask her to call me.?
hard ?
[误] I have to study hardly.?
[正] I have to study hard.?
[析] hard是形容词,如:a hard work,但它同时也是副词。hardly是hard的又一副词形式,但词意截然不同,意为"几乎不"。?
[误] I had my leg broken last term, so I couldn't hardly study at all.?
[正] I had my leg broken last term so I hardly studied at all.?
[析] hardly意为"否定",所以不要再加否定词语了,如果hardly用于句首则应采用倒装语序,如:Hardly had he arrived when she started plaining.?
have ?
[误] I had my boy do his homework from morning till noon.?
[正] I had my boy doing his homework from morning till noon.?
[析] 用have somebody do something还是doing something要取决句子的意思和句中的时间状语。?
[误] I have my bike to repair.?
[正] I have my bike repaired.?
[析] have something done这一句型是让某事被别人去作,请看下面两句意义的不同:I have repaired my bike. (我自己已修好了自行车。)而I have my bike repaired.(我把车推出去让别人修理了。)?
[误] Could you give me some money if you have.?
[正] Could you give me some money if you have any.?
[析] "如果你有的话"一句译为英文应加上any一词,如:I want some books if there is any.?
headache ?
[误] I've got headache.?
[正] I've got a headache.?
[析] Headache是一个规则的可数名词,所以可以讲:My mother often gets headaches. 但是"牙痛"toothache,"肚子痛"stomache?ache等却都可以用作不可数名词,如:I've got toothache. 但也可用作可数名词。?
hear ?
[误] He was heard sing in the next room.?
[正] He was heard to sing in the next room.?
[析] hear somebody do something这一句式用于被动语态时要把原来省略的不定式to还原回来。而在hear somebody doing something这一句式中则不会出现上述问题。如,主动态:I heard her singing in the next room. 变为被动态时为:She was heard singing in the next room. 这种用法还适用于see, look, observe, watch, notice, listen to等。?
hear listen to ?
hear一词为听见了什么,或听到什么,强调其结果;而listen to则强调有意要听,听的倾向。如:I want to listen to you, but I hear nothing.?
但词组hear about (of)则为"听说过"之意,如:I heard about this. (我听说过此事。)而hear from则为"收到某人信件"之意:I often hear from my girl friend.?
help ?
[误] Please help my homework.?
[正] Please help me do my homework.?
[正] Please help me with my homework.?
[析] help其句型是help somebody do (to do) something. 意为"帮某人作某事",但在较古老的语法中不带to的不定式表示句子的主语参加这个动作,如:He help his mother cook the meal. 即"他和母亲一起作饭。"而He help me to do my homework. 则是"他指导我做作业"。但在现代英语中这个区别则往往被取消了。所以带to与不带to的不定式在句中意思相同,并无区别。?
[误] When I read the play I can't help to think of my childhood.?
[正] When I read the play I can't help thinking of my childhood.?
[析] can't help doing something是"身不由己,情不自禁做某事"。?
[误] Help yourself with some cakes.?
[正] Help yourself to some cakes.?
[析] 中文中讲"你自己拿蛋糕吃",英文中要用help somebody to something.?
here ?
[误] Here the bus es!?
[正] Here es the bus!?
[析] 副词在句首时一般要用倒装语序,即谓语动词的位置前移。但是,若主语如是人称代词,则还是要用正常语序,如:Here we are!?
high ?
[误] He is very high.?
[正] He is very tall.?
[析] 英语中的两个"高"high和tall,其中tall指人指物都是可以的,但high则只指物体的高,所以可以讲This building is the highest building in the city.但tall一般不用来指山脉的高低。?
hit ?
[误] The mother got angry and hit the boy.?
[正] The mother got angry and beat the boy.?
[析] hit指打到某物之上,一般指一次性打击,如He hit his head against the wall.(他把头撞到了墙上。)而beat则指多次性的打击。?
home ?
[误] I'm tired. It's time I went to home.?
[正] I'm tired. It's time I went home.?
[析] home此处用作副词,所以不应加to,又如:I arrived home at eleven thirty yesterday evening.而at home除了"在家"之意外,还有像"在家里一样"之意。如Make yourself at home.(不要拘束就像在家一样。)?
home house family ?
home是指与亲人一起居住的地方,可以讲a letter from home,所以有人解释home包括住处和家人。而house的侧重点则在建筑物,如Many new houses were built this year. family一词,作为整体讲其谓语动词用单数,如:Her family is a happy one.而作为家庭成员讲时要用复数谓语动词,如:My family are all like swimming.?
homgwork ?
[误] I have so many homework to do today.?
[正] I have so much homework go do today.?
[析] homework为不可数名词。同样的词还有work(work作为"著作"、"作品"、"工厂"讲时为可数名词),fun,health information等。?
hope ?
[误] I hope you to be a good student.?
[正] I hope you will be a good student.?
[析] hope一词不能接宾语再加上宾语补足语,但它可以接不定式作宾语,如:I hope to be a scientist.而wish却可以接宾语加宾语补足语,如:I wish you to be a good student.
