  but的常见用法讲解

  介词but表示“除……外”,即英语except, other than或not including的意思,是最常用的介词之一。主要用法有以下几点:

  ①与no, no one, none, nobody, nothing, nowhere等词连用。例如:

  No one can do it but him.只有他才能担当此任。/None but him knows this plant.只有他认识这植物。

  I heard nothing but the wind.除了风声,我什么也没听到。

  ②与all, anything, anywhere, every, everybody, everyone等词连用。例如:

  You were all wrong but me.除我外,你们都错了。

  Everybody arrived on time but yourself.大家都按时到达,就是你自己没有。

  Have you ever been to anywhere else but Beijing? 除了北京外你还去过别的地方吗?

  ③与who, what, where及形容词最高级等连用。例如:

  Who but a fool would do such a thing? 除傻瓜外,谁还会干这样的事情?

  What is she but my wife? 她不是我的妻子还会是什么呢?

  He is the thinnest man in our school but Mr He.除何先生外,他是我们学校里最瘦的人。

  ④跟名词、代词、数词、形容词、副词、介词短语或名词性从句作宾语。例如:

  None but his dog saved him.除了他的狗以外,没有人救了他。

  I have written all my letters but one.我只差一封信就写完了。

  He felt all but dead with fatigue. 他感到累得要死。

  She was anything but mad.她一点也不疯。

  I remember I put it nowhere but in desk.我记得我只是把它放在书桌里。

  I believe all but what he said.我根本不相信他说的话。

  ⑤跟带to的不定式作宾语。例如:

  She had no choice but to wait.除了等待,她别无选择。

  ⑥but前的谓语动词是do时,跟省略“to”的不定式作宾语 。例如:

  He did nothing but read a novel yesterday.除了看小说,他昨天什么也没干。

  What can you do but take back what you said.除了收回你的话外,你还能做什么?

  ⑦but前的非谓语动词是to do或doing时,but后的不定式的“to”可省略也可不省略。例如:

  I had nothing to do but (to) watch TV.除了看电视,我无事可做。

  There was nothing left to do but (to) take a rest.没有剩下什么要做的事情,只好休息。

  ⑧but前的谓语动词或短语动词要求接动名词时,but后应接动名词。例如:

  He thinks of nothing but making money.除了赚钱,他什么也不想。

  That official was afraid of nothing but eating pork.那位官员只是怕吃猪肉。

  He could bear anything but hearing such bad news.他听到这样的坏消息确实会忍受不了。

  ⑨不能置于句首,也不能与other连用。例如:

  Everyone but me was tired. 除了我以外大家都累了。(=Except for me, everyone was tired.)

  Mr. An has no girl-friends but her. 除了她外,安先生没有别的女朋友。(=Mr. An has no other girl-friend besides /except her.)

  ⑩but后的代词,可用主格也可用宾格;但处于主语位置时,用主格代词更显得自然和合符习惯,谓语应与but前的主语一致。例如:

  No one but we (us) is able to do it.只有我们能当此任。

  Nobody but we (us) knows of it. 除了我们外,没有人知道这事。

  You are all wrong but I (me).除我以外,你们都错了。

  I told her that I had never loved anyone but her.我告诉她,除她以外我没爱过任何人。
