英語(yǔ)中,很多表示瞬間意義的系動(dòng)詞,不能與“for+時(shí)間段,since+時(shí)間點(diǎn),how long until+時(shí)間, by+時(shí)間,so far”等直接連用。例如:不能說(shuō)“He has become a teacher for 2 years.”應(yīng)該把它改成“He has been a teacher for 2 years.”

系動(dòng)詞除了接形容詞、名詞、代詞及其短語(yǔ)以及某些副詞以外,還可接不少表語(yǔ)形式。比如,look、smell、sound、feel、appear、seem等詞能接as if/as though表語(yǔ)從句,如:He looked as if he had just stepped out of my book of fairy tales./She felt as if her head were splitting.

作為系動(dòng)詞時(shí),seem, appear可以用于“It+系動(dòng)詞+that從句”結(jié)構(gòu)中,比如:It seemed that he had made some serious mistakes in his work./It appeared that he was talking to himself.(好像他在自言自語(yǔ)。)需要注意的是,be和look是不能用在這種結(jié)構(gòu)中的。

Be, seem, get, look, appear, prove, grow等系動(dòng)詞,可以用不定式作表語(yǔ)。比如:Her job is to look after the children./My advice proved to be wrong./He will grow to like this work gradually.

High是“高的,奢侈的”的意思,然而high tea并不是“奢侈茶”,或者“高茶”的意思,它真正的意思是“茶點(diǎn),傍晚茶”。例如:High tea, a term often confused with afternoon tea, usually takes the place of supper.人們常常會(huì)把“茶點(diǎn)”和“下午茶”搞混,其實(shí)茶點(diǎn)通常相當(dāng)于晚餐。
