誤] She laid down and soon fell asleep.

[正] She lay down and soon fell asleep.

[析]考試中常出現的是易混動詞lay放，lie躺，lie說謊。它們的過去時、過去分詞和現在分詞變化如下：

lay (放) laid， laid， laying (及物動詞)

lie (躺) lay， lain， lying (不及物動詞)

lie (說謊) lied， lied， lying

[誤] Please rise your hand.

[正] Please raise your hand.

[析] rise 是不及物動詞，其后不能接賓語，如：The sun rises in the east.而raise是及物動詞。

[誤] I like to swim very much, but I don’t like swimming this afternoon.

[正] I like swimming very much, but I don’t like to swim this afternoon.

[析] like作為"喜歡"講時，可以接動名詞也可以接不定式，但接動名詞時多表達一種習慣性動作。而接不定式則側重于表達一次性、特殊性的動作。但要注意的是like 與would連用時則一定要接不定式，如：Would you like to go with me?再有一點要注意的是，

like作為介詞"像"講時，只能用分詞作其賓語。

[誤] Stop! Did you listen to a strange voice?

[正] Stop! Did you hear a strange voice?

[析] hear的側重點是聽到、聽見什么，而listen to 的側重點為聽的傾向，如：listen! Do you hear someone calling help?這樣的詞還有look與see。它們的側重點也不同，look重于"看"的傾向，而see重于看見沒看見。

[誤] Did you watch some film recently?

[正] Did you see some film recently?

[析] 英語中see 與 watch 各有不同的用處，see用于看電影、劇目，而watch用作看電視和看球賽。

[誤] Look. A beautiful lamp hanged from the ceiling.

[正] Look. A beautiful lamp hung from the ceiling.

[析] hang有兩個含義，① "掛"，它的過去時與過去分詞是hung， hung;② "絞刑"，這時它是規則動詞，其過去式與過去分詞則為hanged， hanged。

[誤] How long can I borrow this book?

[正] How long can I keep this book?

[析] "借"在英文中有三個詞，① 借入，即borrow,如：May I borrow some books from the library?② 借出，如：I can lend my bike to you.③ 借多久要用keep,

因為borrow與lend都是截止性動詞，而keep是延續性動詞。如 How long can I keep it?

[誤] We have won your class.

[正] We have beaten your class.

[析] win是及物動詞，其后面的賓語應是比賽、戰爭、獎品、獎金。而beat的賓語，應是人、隊、班級等等，如：We won the game.

[誤] I left my key.

[正] I forgot my key.

[正] I left my key at home.

[析] leave是"丟下"，其后一定要接地點狀語，而forget其后不要接地點狀語。

[誤] Oh! It’s raining outside. Please bring the rain coat with you.

[正] Oh! It’s raining outside. Please take this rain coat with you.

[析] bring為"帶來"如：Next time bring your little sister here.而take為"帶走"，fetch為"去某處取什么回來"，

如：Please fetch some coffee for us要熟記的是在初中課文中與take

有關的詞組，如： take away 拿走 take back 收回 take down 取下take off 脫下 take…out 拿出 take place 發生 take hold of 拿住 take part in 參加

take a seat 坐下take one’s place 替代

take a look 看看 take one’s turn 輪流 take a message 捎信 take care of 照看 take it easy 別著急take one’s time 慢慢來 take one’s temperature 測量體溫

[誤] The policeman reached his gun.

[正] The policeman reached for his gun.

[析] reach作"到達"講時是及物動詞，如：I reached the hotel at 8∶30但作"伸手去拿"，則要用reach for something。作為"到達"講時還有arrive (in+大地方)

(at+較小的地方)和get to.

要注意的是與get有關的詞組有： get back 回來 get in 收割 get into 進入 get off 下車 get on 上車 get out 出去 get up 起床 get to 到達

get ready for=be ready for get on well with 與人相處融洽 get 加比較級為變得如何，例如： get colder and colder.

[誤] This dictionary spent me five dollars.

[正] This dictionary cost me five dollars.

[析] 英文中的"花費"有4個spend, cost, take 和 pay,其中spend 與pay所在句中的主語應為人，如：I spent two hours in doing my homework. I paid five dallars for the book.

而cost與take的主語則是事物，如：It takes me two years to finish this book.
