用法讲解
- long的基本意思是“长的”,可表示时间和距离的长短或长度,也可表示书籍、信件、故事之类的内容的长短。
- long在句中可作定语,也可作表语。
- long用作副词时,其基本意思是“长久地”,主要用于修饰静态动词,表示时间延续之长。
- long还可作“久远地”解,表示动作发生于很久之前或之后,一般位于副词或介词短语之前。
- long作名词是“长时间,长时期”的意思,是不可数名词。
- for long的意思是“长久”,常用于否定句或疑问句中。
- long用作动词时意思是“渴望”“极想”,指一个人全心全意地、极为诚恳地期望得到某种东西,尤指遥远的、难以得到的东西。
- long用作不及物动词时常与介词for连用,并常接动词不定式作目的状语。
- long, a long time
-
- 1.这两者都用作表示时间的状语,用于疑问句中可互换。例如:
- Have you been here long〔a long〕 time?你在这里呆了很久了吗?
- 2.a long time可用于肯定句中;而long只在受另一副词如too, enough, ago修饰时才用于肯定句。例如:
- She waited there for a long time.她在那里等了很长时间。
- You've been sleeping too long〔long enough 〕.你睡得太久了。
- 3.在否定结构中,两者所表达的意思有别。试比较:
- Tom didn't work for long.
- 汤姆干活没干多久。
- (刚工作不久)
- Tom didn't work for a long time.
- 汤姆好长时间没工作了。
- (离上次工作已很长时间了)
- how long, how soon
-
- 这两个短语的区别是:how soon的意思是“多久”,当我们就陈述句中的“过多少时间(就能…)”这一部分提问时,只能用how soon不能用how long; how long的意思是“多长”,当我们就陈述的“一段时间的长短”提问时,要用how long,不能用how soon。试比较:
- “How soon will he be here?”“In two hours.” “再过多久他就在这里了?”“两个小时。” “How long will he be here?”“For two hours.” “他要在这里呆多长时间?”“两个小时。”
- 下面两句话意思相同:
-
- It will not take long to finish the work.
- It will not be long before I finish the work.
- 不久我就会完成这项工作。
- long before, before long
-
- before long的意思是“不久之后”,相当于soon,其中before是介词, long是名词; long before的意思是“很久以前”,相当于a long time earlier,long与before都是副词, long说明before的程度。试比较:
- It happened before long.
- 不久就发生了。
- It happened long before.
- 很久以前就已发生了。
- long for, ache for, die for, hunger for, sigh for, starve for, thirst for
-
- 这组短语间的区别是:
- 1.这组短语都可以表示“渴望得到某物”或“渴望做某事”; ache for和sigh for还可表示“想念某人”; hunger for还可表示“渴望知道某情况”。
- 2.这组短语都可以人作主语; ache for和thirst for还可用表示身体某部位的名词作主语。
- 3.这组短语都可以物作宾语; ache for, long for和sigh for还可以人作宾语。
- 4.ache for和die for多用于进行时态; hunger for和thirst for多用于一般时态; 而long for则可用于各种时态。
- 5.除starve for可用于被动语态作“缺乏”解外,其他6个短语极少用于被动语态。
- 6.die for表示的是极端渴望; ache for和long for表示的是强烈的渴望; 其他4个短语所表示的语气则相对较轻。
- 7.ache for和long for是口语用法; sigh for是文学用语; 其他4个短语则属于比喻用法。
- long, pine, yearn
-
- 这组词的共同意思是“渴望”。其区别在于:
- 1.pine暗示苦苦思念不可能得到的事物; long暗示有强烈的愿望并付诸努力; yearn则暗示不安地或痛苦地渴望做到某事或得到某物。
- 2.long和yearn后均可跟for短语或不定式,但long是一般用语,用于褒义或贬义均可;而yearn则通常用于高尚的感情或用于诗歌中。例如:
- My brother yearned to return to his native land.我哥哥渴望回故乡。
- desire,wish,hope,expect,want,long
-
- 这些动词都有“希望”之意。
- desire语气较正式庄重,着重渴望的力量与热切,常含有强烈的意图和目的。
- wish语气较弱,多指难于实现或不可能实现的愿望。
- hope指对愿望实现有一定信心的希望。
- expect通常指有很大程度的把握,但仍含有预料之意,或预计某事或某行动的发生。
- want一般指所想要的东西是切望得到的东西,能弥补实际需要。
- long语气强,指极殷切地盼望着,这种盼望侧重于很难或不可能得到的东西。有时也指一般愿望,但含一定感情色彩。
- yearn,long,thirst
-
- 这些动词均含“渴望”之意。
