no more than not morethan ?
no more than應譯為"只不過"、"才",如: He wrote no more than three books. 即他真正寫了三本書。而not more than則意為"不會多于",如: He wrote not more than three books. 即他寫的書不會多于三本。又如: He is no shorter than you. 應譯為"你和他都不矮",而He is not shorter than you. 才應譯為"他比你高。"?
most ?
[誤] Most of students are good at English.?
[正] Most of the students are good at English.?
[正] Most students are good at English.?
[析] most of這一結(jié)構(gòu)后面的名詞前一定要有一個限定詞。?
[誤] My friends are most teachers.?
[正] My friends are mostly teachers.?
[析] mostly意為"大部分的","主要的"。?
much ?
[誤] The boy was asleep very much.?
[正] The boy was fast asleep.?
[析] 不是所有的形容詞都可以用very來修飾,如fast asleep意為"熟睡",則是固定搭配。像interesting, exciting, surprising這些形容詞化的現(xiàn)在分詞,以及tired, interested這些形容詞化的過去分詞則要用very來修飾。?
must ?
[誤] He must be in the office, and mustn't go home.?
[正] He must be in the office, and can't go home.?
[析] must加動詞原形為對事情的肯定推測,而否定的推測則要用can't加動詞原形。?
[誤] It must have rained now.?
[正] It must have rained yesterday.?
[析] "must+have+過去分詞"為對過去發(fā)生事情的推測。這句話應譯為"昨天一定是下雨了。"又如: I must go and call him. He must have forgotten it.?
must have to ?
must用來表示說話者覺得某件事有必要去做,如I must stop smoking. 其意為:我自己認為我要戒煙;而have to則多用來表達由于來自外界的因素而不得不去做的事,如: I have to go to school tomorrow.?must無過去式,當用在講過去某件必須要做的事時要用had to, 如: When I was young, I had to go to the factory.?在否定句中mustn't意為:一定不要做某事,如: You mustn't tell this to Tom. 而haven't to則多意為沒有必要去做,如: You don't have to tell this to Tom. 而英語中多用needn't 來取代haven't to.?
myself ?
[誤] I can't play ping?pong myself.?
[正] I can't play ping?pong by myself.?
[析] 第一句并無語法錯誤,myself為"我親自要去",而by myself為"獨自一人"。這句話要表達的意思是"我一個人無法打乒乓球。"而I want to play ping?pong myself. 應譯為"我自己想去打乒乓球。"?
