    Phrasal Verbs
    Phrasal verbs are composed of two words: a main verb and a particle.
    Look at these examples from this week's episode:
    to turn something off:
    to stop something working, to switch something off
    to work on something:
    to concentrate on a task, to do a task
    to cut something off:
    to stop the supply of something, to disconnect something
    to get on with something:
    to do something without delay
    to carry on:
    to continue
    to put someone off:
    to distract someone
    to put up with something:
    to tolerate something
    There are four different types of phrasal verb:
    有四種不同類型的動(dòng)詞片語
    Type A
    These phrasal verbs take a direct object (they are transitive):
    I turned off the water
    I cut off the water
    He picked up Spanish easily
    You can separate the two parts of the phrasal verb with the object:
    I turned the water off
    I cut the water off
    He picked Spanish up easily
    If you use an object pronoun(me, you, him, her, it, us, them) you must separate the two parts of the phrasal verb:
    I turned it off
    I cut it off
    He picked it up easily
    Type B
    These phrasal verbs take a direct object(they are transitive) but you cannot separate the two parts of the verb:
    I'm working on a new project
    I'm working on it
    Keep off the grass!
    Keep off it!
    Type C:
    These phrasal verbs do not take a direct object (they are intransitive) and you never separate the two parts of the verb:
    Tim didn't stop. He carried on
    The water finally ran out
    Type D:
    These phrasal verbs are composed of three words. They always have a direct object and you never separate these words with the object or the object pronoun:
    I put up with it for too long
    She is looking forward to the weekend
    One verb, two types:
    Some phrasal verbs can be both Type C and Type D. You can add a new particle so that the verb can then take a direct object:
    To carry on/ to carry on with something
    Even though he was tired, he carried on
    Even though he was tired, he carried on with his work
    To check out/to check out of somewhere
    She checked out at 10 o'clock
    She checked out of the hotel at 10 o'clock
    Verb patterns:
    If you have another verb after a phrasal ve
    rb, you always use the gerund form (-ing) of the second verb:
    He carried on working
    I'm looking forward to meeting you
