Unit14 重点、难点
1.feel like,would like,look like,like
feel like的意思是“想要”、“希望”,用于表达一种客气的请求。其中like是介词,因此后跟动名词或名词作宾语,不可以接不定式。如:
I don\'t feel like doing it today.What about tomorrow?我不想今天做此事,明天怎么样?
I feel like a cup oftea.请给我一杯茶。
would like也是表达客气的请求,意思与feel like相同,但would like中like是动词,后面跟名词或不定式作宾语。如:
What would you like to do today?你今天想干什么?
I\'d like a word with you.我想跟你谈一下。
would like也可跟“宾语+不定式”的形式,这一点也有别于feel like。
I\'d like you to go there today.我希望你今天能去一趟。
look like的意思是“看上去像”,like是介词,后跟名词或代词。
The two brothers look like each other very much.这兄弟两人长得很像。
It looks like a rope.它看上去像一根绳子。
like作动词,意思是“喜欢”,后跟名词、代词、不定式、动名词作宾语;作介词,意思是“像”、“如……一样”,后跟名词或代词作宾语。如:
I like swimming very m uch.
Ordinary people,like you and me,can\'t afford to buy such an expensive house.像你我这样的平常人是买不起这么贵的房子的。
2.maybe,perhaps,probably
这三个词都有“或许”、“可能”的意思,但用法略有不同。m aybe和perhaps的意思基本相同。但
maybe多用于
口语中,perhaps多用于书面文体。如:
Maybe(Perhaps)the weather will get better.可能天气会变得好一些。
probably是“很可能”的意思,其可能性要大于perhaps和maybe。如:
He will probably succeed.他很可能会成功。
He will perhaps(maybe)succeed.他也许会成功。
另外,也要注意maybe与may be的区别:前者是副词,在句中作状语;后者是情态动词加系动词be,在句中作谓语。
