  甚至他在街上走路时和在拐角处转弯时的那种姿态,都可以认为是他独有的动作。

  3.关于介词值得注意的几个问题

  (1)同一个介词的不同用法和意义,用at为例。

  (A)表示地点,在……They are waiting for me at the gate.

  (B)表示时间,在……时(刻) We usually get up at half past five every morning.

  (C)表示状态,(正)在……中The Browns are at table.

  (F)表示原因,由于…… He was surprised at his friend’s rudeness.

  (G)表示能力,擅长于…… My sister is good at painting.

  (2)同一介词跟不同动词构成不同意义的短语动词,以on为例。

  (C)The price depends on quality.(依赖)

  (F)I looked through today’s newspaper but I found nothing important in it.(浏览)

  (G)You should learn how to look up word in a dictionary.(查阅)

  (4)正确区分介词to和动词不定式符号to。

  The murderer was sentenced to death.(介词)

  The coffee in the cup is too hot to drink.(动词不定式符号)

  (5)几种特殊的介词宾语。

  (A)不定式作宾语:I desire nothing but to have a quiet room to study in.

  (B)形容词作宾语:Although Spring has come,it is still quite cold instead of warm.

  (D)介词短语作宾语:He has lived in Beijing since before liberation.

  (E)由what,when,where,how等引导的从句作宾语(that从句例外):

  (6)不要遗漏介词:

  (B)不定式在enough…to…句型中作结果状语时,若句子的主语在逻辑上与其有动宾关系,不及物动词要有相应的介词。

  (C)在定语从句中,若关系代词是从句谓语动词的宾语,而这个动词又是不及物的,或者介词与关系代词一起表示时间、地点、工具时,都要有相应的介词。

  I don’t know the person my father nodded to just now.

  (D)在短语动词中,介词是固定的,不能随意变换,也不能省略。

  4.容易混淆的几组介词举例

  (A)after指以过去为起点的过去一段时间,跟过去时态连用,in指以现在为起点的将来一段时间,跟一般将来时连用。
