关于dare的意义和用法

作为情态动词表示“胆敢”,dare通常只用于否定陈述句和疑问句。例如: I dare not go there.

How dare he say such rude things about me?

dare作为情态助动词没有过去式形式,其否定式为daren’t,既可指现在时间,也可指过去时间。例如:

Tom wanted to come, but he daren’t.

dare还可用主动词,随后的不定式可带to,也可不带to。例如: He does not dare (to) answer.

Does she dare (to) go there alone?

besides, but, except, except for 这组词均含有“除?外”的意思。 besides “除?外,还有?”,指更进一步的拥有,包括所“除”事物在内。 Have you got any clothes besides these?除了这些衣服你还有别的吗?

but不包括所引事物在内,多与nothing, not anything, nobody, nowhere, all, anybody等连用。

He has nobody but himself to blame for that.那件事他没法指责别人,只能怪他自己。

except不包括所引事物。常与no, none, nothing等否定词或all,everyone, everything等连用,但不可用于句首。

except for常指除去所引情况让人稍感遗憾之外,整体情况尚属理想,被除去的事物与正在谈及的事物之间不具有共同属性或性质。

The roads were clear except for a few cars.除几辆小汽车外,路面很空旷。

近义词辨析

beautiful, goodlooking, handsome, lovely, pretty 这组词均含有“美丽”、“漂亮”、“可爱”的意思。 Beautiful指能不仅给人带来感官上的快乐,而且通过感官产生思想和灵魂的愉悦,在同类词中层次最高。

She was even more beautiful than I had remembered.她比我记忆中的她更漂亮了。 Good looking 不如handsome, pretty意思强烈,指一般的“好看”或“悦目”。

That good looking young man visited the house once or twice a week.那个长相不错的年轻人一星期光顾一两次。

handsome 通常是一种客观的不带感情色彩的评价。一个人如被形容为handsome,是指此人外貌符合观察者的要求,但不激发更深层的感受。

He looked very handsome in his dark suit.他穿深色西装显得非常英俊。

lovely比感官的快乐更进一步,是强调纯粹情感上的愉悦,指觉得某人或某物“可爱”。 Mary has two lovely daughters.玛丽有两个可爱的女儿。

pretty也是“漂亮、可爱”的意思。很少形容大而有影响力的事物,多形容事物不以其优秀、完美而以小巧、优雅、精致见长,使人容易接受并喜爱。

Her boyfriend believes that she is the prettiest girl in the town.她男朋友觉得她是镇上最漂亮的女孩。
