4. 在口語中用在 come, go, run, stay, stop, try 等之后表示目的(and 在此相當于不定式符號 to)。如：

Come and have a look. 來看一看。

We will try and get one tomorrow. 我們明天設法弄一個來。

We ought to stop and think. 我們應該停下來想一想。

Will you go and fetch me some paper, please? 請你去給我拿點紙來好嗎?

以上動詞除 try 只能用原形外，其它動詞都可有多種形式。如：

正：We stayed and had a drink with him. 我們留下來同他喝 了一杯。

正：We stopped and bought some flowers. 我們停下來買了些 花。

誤：He tried and finished the work in time.

注：在 come, go 之后的 and 有時可以省略(尤其在美國英語中)。如：

I’ll come (and) see you later. 我晚些時候再來看你。

5. 用在祈使句后，表示結果，意為“那么”(暗示一種條件)。如：

Work hard and you’ll pass the examinations (=If you work

hard, you’ll pass the examinations). 努力吧，你考試會及格的。

Arrive late once more and you’re fired (=If you arrivelate once more, you’re fired). 再遲到一次，就把你開除。

有時也可以不是用于祈使句后表示結果。如：

One more step and I will fire. 你再動一步，我就要開槍了。

6. 用在 good, nice, fine 等之后，表示“很”、“挺”。如：

It’s nice and cool under the tree. 這樹下很涼快。

The book is nice and expensive. 這本書很貴。

7. 在主從復合句中，不要在主句前誤加 and。如：

要是下雨，我們就呆在家里。

正：If it rains, we’ll stay at home.

誤：If it rains, and we’ll stay at home.

8. 某些用 and 連接的兩個詞，與漢語順序相反，不要按漢語詞序顛倒過來。如：

rich and poor 貧富 land and water 水陸

right and left 左右 north and south 南北

food and drink 飲食 food and clothing 衣食

9. 比較以下各組句子有無連詞 and 的差別：

天氣晴朗，我們出去散了步。

正：The weather being fine, we went out for a walk.

正：The weather was fine, and we went out for a walk.

正：In the classroom there are five people, the teacher

included.

正：In the classroom there are five people, and the teacher was included.

正：He has two children, both of whom are naughty.

◆angry adj.

1. 表示對某人生氣，一般用介詞 with (有時也用 at)。如：

The teacher got angry with [at] me. 老師對我生氣了。

有的詞書認為：用 with 表示心中感到生氣，而用 at 則表示怒氣流露于外表，但總的說來此時還是用 with 的場合較多。但值得注意的是，不要按漢語意思，用介詞 to。如：

她對他生氣了。

正：She was angry with him.

誤：She was angry to him.

2. 表示對某事生氣，根據情況可用介詞at, about, over 等。如：

What is he angry about? 他為什么生氣?

He was angry at what you said. 他對你說的話很生氣。

He was angry at being delayed (about the delay). 他因被耽擱(因耽擱)而生氣。

People are angry over rising prices. 人們對上漲的價格感到憤怒。

注：有美國英語有時可用 with。如：

She was angry with (=at) his present. 她對他的禮物生氣。

3. 表示生氣的原因，一般用介詞 for。如：

I am angry with you for your conduct. 你的行為使我生氣。

He was angry with himself for having made such a foolish

mistake. 他為自己犯了這樣一件愚蠢的錯誤而怨恨自己。

◆announce v.

表示“宣布”、“通告”等，通常為及物動詞，其后可接名詞或that-從句作賓語，但不接雙賓語；要表示向某人宣布，用介詞 to。如：

他向他們宣布了他的決定。

正：He announced his decision to them.

正：He announced to them his decision.

誤：He announced them his decision.
