| 释义 | 1．把 near 用作 nearly 解，如 near thirty years ago 和 near dead with fright 现在很不普通，该避免。 2．near 作“几乎的”、“近似的”、“相似的”、“好像真的”解是美国用法，如near blindness（几乎失明），a near accident（几乎肇祸），a near tragedy（一件跟悲剧相差无几的事情），near beer（好像真的假啤酒）和near silk（好像真的假丝、丝一般的物质）。near-naked（几乎裸体的）等也是美国用法。 3．下面各句意思相同： That might go near to kill him.（那个将几乎把它弄死。） That might go near to killing him. That might go near killing him. That might come near to killing him. That might come near killing him. 在 come near 后面不接不定式，例如不说 That might come near to kill him。以上各句里在英国用 go 和 come 都普通，在美国主要用 come。 4．We live quite near them 比 We live quite near to them 普通。 5．near here 等不及not far from here 等合乎习惯。 6．关于 near by 参见 nearby |
