2023学年牛津上海版八年级第二学期module2复习及练习
一、复习
(一)重点短语
1. take charge of 主管;掌管
take charge of意思是“主管;负责”,与in charge of意思相近,in charge of强调状态,而take charge of强调动作。如:
The boss asked him to take charge of the office for a few days while she was away. 老板让他在她离开时掌管办公室几天。
2. talk over商议;讨论
talk over相当于discuss,我们可以用talk over sth. with sb.来表示“和某人讨论某事”,但是如果要用人称代词的话,就应该放在它们的中间,即talk it / them over。如:
Why don’t you talk it over with him? Encourage him to be on time. 为什么不跟他好好谈一谈?鼓励他遵守时间。
3. make a decision 做决定
decision是动词decide的名词形式,make a decision意思为“做出决定”,后面可以接about sth. 来表示“做出有关……的决定”,也可以接to do sth.来表示“决定做某事”。如:
I think it is possible for him to make a decision to open a computer firm. 我想他有可能决定开一家电脑公司。
4. belong to 属于
belong to意为“属于”,表示“是……的成员,是……的组成部分,是……的属性、职能等”。要注意的是:belong to不可用于进行时和被动语态。如:
All the goods here belong to the school. 这儿所有的物品都属于学校。
5. go off 突然响起
go off是固定搭配,意思为“突然响起”,相当于make a sudden noise。
(二)词语辨析
1. almost; nearly
【辨析】 这两个词都是“几乎,差不多”的意思。但almost比nearly的语气和程度更强一些,相当于very nearly。它可以与no, none, nothing等词连用。如:
Long ago there was almost nothing in this place. 很久以前,在这个地方几乎什么都没有。
nearly所表示的距离或差别比almost更大一些。它不能与no, none, nothing等否定词连用。如:The Great Pyramid is nearly 5,000 years old. 金字塔有近五千年的历史。
在肯定句中,如果不严格要求的话,两词可以互换使用。但如果要表达“差一点儿”,还是用almost确切。但要与hardly区分开来,hardly的意思是“几乎不”,也就是说hardly本身就是一个否定词;而almost与nearly没有否定意义。
2. contain; hold
【辨析】 contain表示“包含或拥有(某物)以作为一部分或一组”,也就是说它所强调的是包含的是什么;而hold则侧重于表示“包含,容纳”的能力, 强调容积、容量。如:
This drawer contains the books we use. 这个抽屉放着我们使用的书籍。
This box can hold ten bottles. 这个箱子能够装下十个瓶子。
