①I advise you to take the chance.我建议你抓住机会。
②—What do you advise me to do?你建议我怎么办？
—I advise you not to lose heart; just keep on.我劝你不要灰心，继续干。
advise 还可同suggest一样，后接名词、代词、动名词（短语）和that从句（用虚拟语气）作宾语。

The doctor persuaded my father to give up smoking.医生说服我爸爸戒了烟。
The doctor advised my father to give up smoking, but failed.
医生劝我爸爸戒烟，但没成功。
advise; suggest
advise 与suggest 都可作“建议”讲，二者用法有同有异。
(1)相同点表示建议做某事，advise与suggest都可采用下列三种句型:
① + 名词
② + 动名词
③ + that从句（从句中常用should加动词原形，should可以省略。）
eg. He advised/ suggested an early start.
He advised/ suggested (our) starting early.
He advised/ suggested that we (should) start early.
(注：只要是用从句表示建议该做的事，从句中就可用“should+动词原形”，should可以省略。)上面的第三句可转化为：
It was suggested that we (should) start early.
What he suggested was that we(should) start early.
His suggestion was that we (should) start early.
(2)不同点
①advise后可以跟人称代词作宾语，而suggest后不可以跟人称代词作宾语。故可以说：
advise sb. to do sth.; advise sb. against (doing) sth.; advise sb. on/ about sth.; suggest(to sb.)that...
前三种结构中不可将advise改为suggest，如：
他建议我们去参观博物馆。
[正]He advised us to go to visit the museum.
[误]He suggested us to go to visit the museum.
[误]He suggested us that we go to visit the museum.
②suggest还有“暗示、表明、说、指出（一个事实）”的意思。此时从句中用陈述语气，不用虚拟语气。如：
The smile on his face suggested that he was pleased.
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the patient was seriously ill.(句中suggest陈述了一个事实，故用陈述语气。)比较：
Having examined carefully, the doctor suggested that the Patient be
operated on at once.(句中suggest表示建议该做某事，从句中用should加动词原形，should在从句中省略。)
affect（=have an effect on sth.）vt.影响（effect n.影响）
  This may affect your health.  这或许会影响你的健康。
My throat is always affected by bad weather.我的嗓子总是受恶劣天气的影响。
afraid
1)“be afraid of+名词”，意为“害怕”。
2）“be afraid of doing sth”意为“担心，害怕……”。
3）“be afraid for…”意为“为……担心。”
4）“be afraid that…”意为“担心，恐怕”。
5）“be afraid to do ”意为“害怕，担心而不敢做某事”。
6）I’m afraid so/not.恐怕是这样/恐怕不会这样

You may do it another day.
你可以改天做这件事。
He stayed there (for) another day/another two days after I lift.
我离开后他在那又待了一天/两天。
the other day 相当于a few days ago,意为“几天前、某天、那天、不久前”，句中用一般过去时。如：
I met her in the street the other day.几天前我在街上碰见过她。
I bought the watch the other day.这手表我是几天前买的。
some day指将来“总有一天、有朝一日、终将、（日后）某一天”，谓语动词用一般将来时.如:

anxious, eager
两个词均有“渴望，急于”之意。anxious 着重指焦急、着急或担心；而eager着重指对成功的期望或进取的热情。两者都多用作表语，其主语通常是人，不能以无生命的事物作主语。对比：

Key:①are, anxious(eager),to ,know②anxious(eager)，for③anxious, about④eager, for(about, after)
apologize for doing sth.
apologize是不及物动词，意为“道歉”，其表达式为“apologize to sb.for sth.”。如：
You must apologize to your sister for being so rude.它的名词形式是apology, 复数形式是apologizes.
make one’s apologies to sb. for sth.= make an apology to sb. for sth.如：

②It appears that he will the prize.看来他会得笑。
appear;seem;look
appear, seem, look都有“看起来似……”之意，但其暗含意思和用法又各有不同。
从意义上讲：
(1)appear强调外表给人的印象，有时含实质上并非如此的意思，如：
He appears to know more than he really does。他看起来好像懂得很多。（其实懂得没有那么多）
(2)seem暗示有一定根据的判断，这种判断往往接近事实，如：
His health seems to be better.他的健康状况似乎有所好转。
(3)look着重由视觉得出的印象，如：
He doesn’t look his age.他看起来比实际年龄年轻（或老成）。
从用法上讲：
seem和appear后可加
(to + be)+表语(adj.或n.或prep.)
+to v.
It + ~ +(that)从句如：
He seems/appears（to be）very sad today.=It seems that he is very sad today.
It seems like years since I saw you last time.
He seems a kind doctor.（=It seems that he is a kind doctor.）
He seems/appears to have caught a cold.=It seems/appears that he has caught a cold.
look当“看起来似乎…和as if从句。如：
He looks strong.
She looks like her mother.
It looks as if we are going to miss the train.…”讲时，可接形容词、过去分词、名词、介词短语
area; district

The old man lives in a mountain area.这位老人生活在山东。
This is a less developed area.这是个欠发达地区。
Most of the large land areas are connected.多数大块陆地是相连的。
（2）district表示“区、地区、区域”，指为行政管理或选举之目的所分的区。在同一城市，各种性质不同的区域也叫district。如：

The northeast part of the city is the residential district.这城市的东北部是住宅区。
Arm

该结构意为“拥抱”。如：

As a child….:As/When he was a child…，小的时候，该句型中的as为连词，意为“在……的时候”，引导时间状语从句。当从句与主句主语一致，且从句谓语为be时，可将从句主语及be省略。

(1)be of + 表示年龄（age）、大小（size）、颜色（color）、重量（weight）、高度（height）、价格（price）、意见（opinion）、形状（shape）、种类（kind）和方法（way）等名词，说明主语的特征，of表示“具有”之意，有时可省去。例如：

When I was of your age, I was a teacher.当我是你这个年龄时，我当老师了。
These flowers are of different colors.这些花朵颜色不同。
Tom is of a different way of thinking.汤姆的思维方式与别人不同。

Busy
be busy doing sth.
该结构意为“忙于做某事”。应注意的是be busy 后只能接动词-ing形式，不能接动词不定式to do,相同结构的形容词还有worth。如：
①He is busy writing his composition.
②She keeps busy working on a new novel these weeks.
③This book is well worth seeing.
but prep. 除…之外。与except同义，除了的部分与其他部分不在一个范围内，不具有一致性。except适用场合较多，but 主要用于带有nothing/nobody/no one/all 等不定代词的句子。

②We all went to see a film yesterday evening except/but you.除你之外作天晚上我们都去看电影了。（你没去）

①I did nothing yesterday evening but watch TV.昨天晚上除看电视外我什么也没干。
②He had no choice but to leave.他只得离开。
注意：besides 也是介词，意为“除……之外（还有）”。除了的部分和其他部分在同一个范围内，具有一致性。
①We all went to see a film yesterday evening besides you.除你之外昨天晚上我们也都去看电影了。（你和我们都去了）
②Who is going there with Tom besides you? 除你之外还有谁和汤姆一起去？
but for
该短语介词意为“要不是……”，后接名词（=without + n.）,but for…短语相当于一个虚拟条件句，因此，句中谓语动词用虚拟语气。如：
The boy would have drowned but for your help.
如果接的是句子，but for要换用成but that…如：
He would have helped us but that he was short of money at the time.(= if it had not been the fact that he was…)
Buy
“我的金项链花了2500元”有多种译法：
 by prep. 乘……。用来表示方式，其后的名词为单数，且不加冠词。
例如 by bike/bus/ car /taxi/train//road/railway/land/boat/ship/ water/ sea/
plane/air
但：“步行”用on foot.
注意：若表示交通工具的名词前有限定词，则将by 改作in 或on.
in one’s/the car/ bus/plane etc.  on the bike
by name
该介宾词组的意思是“名叫……”；“凭名字”。如：
①He met a man, John by name.
②I knew him only by name.
by one’s first marriage 通过或由于某人的第一次婚姻
介词by有许多含义，在此处意为“通过”，相当于through。
  He left by the first train.
他乘第一次列车离开了。
The electricity supply is operated by a switch.供电由一个开关控制。
