容易改的小错误
英语有个短语:
Low-hanging fruit: 容易摘到的果子, 形容最容易得到的东西
These easily fixable mistakes are low-hanging fruit. 最容易改正的错误就可以称之为最容易摘到的果子
错误1: For many times
很多人常常把"for"放在“times”前面。
大家记住,不管是1 time, 2 times, many times, 前面加for, 都是错的哦!
I've been here for ten times.
I've gone there for three times.
I've been to America for five times.
正确用法:直接用多少次,不要介词for。
I've been here many times. 我来过这里很多次了。
I've only been here once: 我这里只来过一次。
I've seen this movie 5 times: 这个电影我看过5遍了。
注意:如果是具体的时间长度,不是times, 还是需要for的。
I've been in China for 5 years: 我来中国5年了。
最容易改正的英语错误!
错误2: Going to there
Coming to here
说到目的地,记住下面这四个词前面不能加to:
Here
There
Home
Downtown
错误例句:
I'm going to there tomorrow.
I'm coming to here.
I'm going to downtown for shopping.
要改正,很容易!记住这4个词不加to就行啦!
I'm going home.
I'm going downtown.
错误3: 混淆since和from
说到时间跨度、从什么时候开始,很多朋友会把since和from用反。
大家只要记住一个简单小规律,就能改正这个错误:
1.Since: 已经开始了,从以前到现在
I've been living in China since 2010. 我从2010年开始就住在中国。
I've been learning English since elementary school. 从小学开始,我就开始学英语了。
2.From: 尚未开始、即将开始,从未来到更未来
From now on: 从现在开始
From this point on:从此刻开始
看一下对比:
From next week, you can't smoke in any indoor spaces. 从下个星期开始,你不能在室内吸烟。
You can't smoke in any indoor speces in Shanghai since next week. |
