3. 你知道thank / appreciate的搭配習(xí)慣嗎

a. He ______ her for her help and then left.

b. He ______ her help and then left.

A. thanked, thanked                                                               B. appreciated, appreciated

C. thanked, appreciated                          D. appreciated, thanked

此題應(yīng)選C。容易誤選A。該題主要涉及表示“感激”的thank和appreciate的用法：

1. thank表示“感謝”, 習(xí)慣上只接“人”作賓語, 而不能接“事”作賓語：

謝謝你的幫助。

正：Thank you for your help.

誤：Thank your help.

謝謝你的好意。

正：Thank you for your kindness.

誤：Thank your kindness.

2. appreciate表示“感謝”, 則習(xí)慣上只能接“事”作賓語, 而不能接“人”作賓語(與thank的用法恰恰相反)：

謝謝你的好意。

正：I appreciate your kindness.

誤：I appreciate you for your kindness.

順便補充一點appeciate 值得注意的用法習(xí)慣：可接動名詞作賓語(但習(xí)慣上不接不定式)：

能再次收到你的來信, 我們將十分感激。

正：We shall appreciate hearing from you again.

誤：We shall appreciate to hear from you again.

4. bed前用介詞和冠詞有何習(xí)慣

a. It is a bad habit to read ______ bed.

b. It is a bad habit to read ______ the bed.

A. in, in                   B. on, on                  C. in, on                  D. on, in

此題應(yīng)選C, 容易誤選A, B。關(guān)于bed(床)這個詞, 要特別注意它與冠詞和介詞連用的情況：

1. 一般說來, 表示與“睡覺”這一概念有關(guān)時, 通常不用冠詞或其它限定詞, 反之則用：

It is too early for bed. 現(xiàn)在睡覺太早了。

He went to bed at ten last night. 他昨晚10點上床睡覺。

He went to the bed and found a letter on it. 他走到床邊, 發(fā)現(xiàn)上面放著一封信。

He sat by the bed, watching TV. 他坐在床邊看電視。

2. 與介詞in連用時, 習(xí)慣上不用冠詞; 而與介詞 on連用時, 習(xí)慣上要有冠詞：

He is still in bed. 他還在睡覺。

He is sick in bed with a cold. 他因感冒而臥床。

There is a box on the bed. 床上有個盒子。

有時兩者都可以用, 只是搭配不同而已：

躺在床上看書是個壞習(xí)慣。

正：It is a bad habit to read in bed.

正：It is a bad habit to read on a [the] bed.

3. 與介詞into, out of 等連用時也通常不用冠詞：

He got into bed quickly. 他很快上了床。

He jumped out of bed as soon as he heard thebell. 他一聽到鈴聲就跳下了床。
