词组 | ground |
释义 | 1.“一块地”不可说a ground,该说a piece of ground。复数形式不指“多块地”,却指“一块围地”,通常在屋的四周,有草地、矮树丛等,如 school grounds 和 temple grounds。grounds 前面用 in,不用 on。 2.on the ground that...和 on the grounds that...相同,都作“以……为理由”解。例如:He was severely criticized on the ground(s) that he did not work hard. on the ground of(以……为理由)里不可用复数形式。on...grounds(以……的理由)里不可用单数形式 ground,如该说 on public grounds 和 on humanitarian grounds。 grow(n) 1.grow 往往作“渐渐成为”解,如 He grows old quickly 和 The weather is growing cold。把 old 和 cold 改作 older 和 colder 也可以,但不及用原级普通。 2.下面三句意思相同: He has grown (up) a handsome young man. He has grown (up) into a handsome young man. He has grown up to be a handsome young man. 把各句里的 has 改作 is 也可以,但现在不普通。 3.不及物动词 grow 的过去分词 grown 有时被用作形容词,作“已长成的”解,如 She is now quite a grown girl 和 He is going to live with his daughter, now grown and the mother of a family。It is a town grown prosperous and beautiful 里的 grown 也用作形容词。 |
