标题 | 2013高考英语备考:at last/in the end 用法说明 | |||||||||||||||
内容 |
at last, in the end, finally 三者均有“最后、终于”的含义。 finally常用于动词之前,表示人们长期以来期待的某事最后实现了,也可指一系列事物或论点的顺序。例如: After putting it off three times,we finally managed to have a holiday in Greece.经过三次延期之后,我们终于在希腊度了一次假。 They talked about it for hours.Finally,they decided not to go.他们谈论了几个小时,最后决定不去。 at last 有时可与finally互换,但往往用于一番拖延或曲折之后,语气更强烈。例如: When at last they found him, he was almost dead.当人们最终找到他时,他已经奄奄一息了。 James has passed his exams at last.詹姆斯终于通过了考试。 in the end指经过许多变化、困难的捉摸不定的情况之后,某事才发生。例如: We made five different plans for our holiday, but in the end we had a summer camp again.我们制订了五种不同的度假方案,但最后我们还是选定了再来一次夏令营活动。 at (the) least 至少;最少。反义词组为at (the)most至多;最多。 —Mr Smith looks older than his real age.In fact,he is at (the)most 40 years old.史密斯先生很显老,实际上他最多40岁。 —Oh, really?I thought he was 50 years old at (the)least.噢,真的吗?我以为他至少50岁了。 at the beginning of 在……初(开头),可指时间与空间。如: at the beginning of term 在学期开始 at the beginning of the book 在那本书的开头 at the beginning 单独用时间at first,也可说in the beginning. 比较:at the end of 在……末(尽头) at the end 在末尾处 in the end 最终,同at last in the middle of 在……中期 from beginning to end 从头至尾 at the doctor’s 该结构为介词+名词所有格,意为“在诊所”。所有格-’s后一般接名词,如her mother’s bike ,但有时这个名词可省略,主要表现在以下两个方面: ①指一个企业,机构,教堂,学校,医院,家庭,理发店,店铺时。如: She is at the hairdresser’s. ②为了避免重复,省略-’s后的名词。如: I have read some of Shaw’s plays,but none of Shakespeare’s. at the last moment在最后关头 at the moment 此刻;正在那时 for a moment片刻;一会儿for the moment 目前,暂时in a moment立刻,马上 at the top of在……的顶部,上方 at the top of a mountain在山顶 She is (at)the top of her class in French. at the top of one’s voice高声地,尖声地 at war 该介宾词组意思是“处于战争或交战状态”。在句中常作表语。如: The U.S.A.and Iraq are at war again. 文章相关链接:www.liuxue86.com/k_2013高考英语备考/ ?
