| 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。 |
