字號(hào):

★ My shoes are worn out.
    My shoes are worn out.我的鞋穿破了。
    Be worn out 表示“穿破了”,這個(gè)詞組看起來(lái)是被動(dòng)形式,但并不強(qiáng)調(diào)被動(dòng),強(qiáng)調(diào)的是狀態(tài)或者情況,可以理解為形容詞短語(yǔ)。例如:
    My clothes are worn out and I have to mend them.
    我的衣服穿破了,我得補(bǔ)一下。

    你瞧,這個(gè)杯子破了。

    You'd better buy a new pair.你買(mǎi)一雙新的。

    ★ That's a bit expensive.
    That's a bit expensive.價(jià)錢(qián)有點(diǎn)貴。

    ★ The shop was quite new,for it had opened only the week before.
    The shop was quite new,for it had opened only the week before.因上周才開(kāi)張的,所以商店很新。
    For 表示“因?yàn)椤?,相?dāng)于because 和as.表明原因,三個(gè)詞中,because語(yǔ)氣,for 語(yǔ)氣最弱。For 表明的原因要寫(xiě)在后面。例如:

    ★ They were so pleased to see each other that they forgot everything else.
    They were so pleased to see each other that they forgot everything else.他們見(jiàn)面后太高興了,以致于把一切事情都忘了。
    So…that…表示“如此…以致于…”。so 后面接形容詞或副詞,that 后面跟一結(jié)果從句。例如:
    It's so cold that I have to put on more clothes.
    天太冷了,我不得不多穿衣服。
