ourselves ☞ourselvespron. [ˌaʊǝ′selvz]
双解释义 1. (we的反身代词)我们自己 reflexive form of we 2. (we的强调形式)我们亲自 strong form of we 基本要点 1. ourselves是we的反身代词,意思是“我们自己”,当宾语与主语有着互指关系时,总是用反身代词,而不用人称代词的宾格。2. ourselves可用作直接宾语、间接宾语或介词宾语,偶尔也可用作表语,含意是“我们自己的正常和健康状态”,有时还可用在独立结构中;作直接宾语时,有些动词总是用反身代词作宾语,有些动词后面的反身代词则可省略,而大多数动词接反身代词作宾语,则是因为主语和宾语形成了互指关系。3. ourselves也可用来强调we,作“我们自己”解。这时ourselves可用作主语或宾语的同位语,有时可用作表语,还可用在like, but(for), except(for), as for, as...as等词后面表示对比。句型例句 We mustn't absent ourselves from a meeting on some pretext. 我们不可借故不去参加会议。 We dressed (ourselves) quickly and went downstairs. 我们匆匆穿好衣服就下楼了。 We have to find ourselves a new home. 我们得给自己找个新家。 We must take good care of ourselves. 我们必须照顾好自己。 We had been ill but today we are again ourselves. 我们曾感不适,但是今天我们已重获健康。 Ourselves no longer young, we can sympathize with those who are old. 我们自己已不再年轻了,我们能同情那些上了年纪的人。 We built the house ourselves. 这幢房子是我们亲自建造的。 We ourselves will do the work. 我们将亲自做这项工作。 The ones who really want it are ourselves. 真正需要它的是我们。 Except for ourselves, the whole village was asleep. 除了我们以外,全村的人都入睡了。 They are quite as well educated as ourselves. 他们和我们一样受过良好的教育。常用短语 ♣ by ourselves1. 我们单独地alone; without anyone else We walked home by ourselves. 我们独自走回家。2. 我们独立地without help We did it by ourselves. 这件事我们是独立做的。 ♣ to ourselves 归我们单独使用,非合用 for our private use; not shared We were glad to have the whole compartment to ourselves. 真高兴,整个客车隔间由我们独享。 |
