的结构。 14、ago, before ago表示以现在为起点的“以前”,常与一般过去时连用,不可以单独使用。

15、agree on;agree to;agree with

agree on作“就……取得一致意见”解。例如:

上月,就建一座新汽车厂之事达成了协议。

agree to有两层含义和用法:

其一是to作为动词不定式符号,其后跟动词原形,作“同意(答应)做某事”解。 例如: My father agreed to buy a new pen for me. 父亲答应给我买支新钢笔。 其二是to作为介词,之后跟表示“计划/条件/建议等一类的名词或代词”。例如:

状语从句由although, though或as引导,主句之前不可有but, and, so, however等并列连词,但

可有yet或still等副词。although与though常可互换。例如: Although/Though he believes it, yet he will not act. 他虽然相信它,但却不肯有所行动。 as表示“尽管;虽然”,只能用于倒装句,即:将表语、状语或谓语动词放在as之前。though也可这么用。例如:

even though(=even if),意为“即使”,引导让步状语从句。though也引导让步状语从句,意

这种情况”之意,不与of连用。例如: In the beginning,some of us took no interest in physics. 起初我们有些人对物理不感兴趣。

29、at the time; at that time; at one time; at a time

at the time通常用于过去时句子中,指某件事情发生的“当时”、“那时”。例如:

33、because/since/as/for

这四个词都是表示原因或理由的连接词,但是as,because,since是从属连词,引导原因状语从句,for是并列连词,所引导的不是原因状语从句,而是表示理由的对等句子,是对前面所讲内容补充和说明。在语气上由强至弱依次为because→since→as→for。because引导的从句多置于句末,表示直接的原因或理由,表示产生那种结果的必然的因果关系,在回答why的提问时,必须用because作答。

如:We stayed at home because it rained.因为下雨我们呆在家里。

as与since引导的从句多置于句首,不过as表示十分明显的原因,只说明一般的因果关系,可译为“因为、由于”;而since则表示稍加分析、对方已知的原因,一般可译为“既然”。如: As he was not feeling well,I decided to go there alone.由于他身体欠佳,我决定独自去那里。 Since everyone is here,let's start.既然大家都到了,咱们就开始吧。
