英語(yǔ)單詞remain和stay的區(qū)別
remain是高中英語(yǔ)中的一個(gè)重要詞匯,高考曾多次考查過(guò)remain的用法,但其仍不失為高考重點(diǎn)“嫌疑”單詞,下面舉例說(shuō)明其用法。供同學(xué)們參考。
英語(yǔ)單詞remain和stay的區(qū)別
(1)remain v.after—continue to be繼續(xù)存在;be still present after a part
has gone or has been taken a away 剩下;遺留
e.g.①Country music today remains much the same as before.
今日的鄉(xiāng)村音樂(lè)仍然同過(guò)去的差不多完全一樣。
②The door remained closed.門(mén)仍然是關(guān)閉的。
?、跰uch work remains to be done.還有許多工作要做。
?、躖ou may have all those that remain.你可以把剩下的那些全拿走。
note:remain與stay兩詞的相同點(diǎn)與不同點(diǎn)
1)remain與stay作“留下”、“繼續(xù)保持某一狀態(tài)”時(shí),它們常作系動(dòng)詞用,可以互換。
e.g.①The shop stays(remains)open till night.這家店鋪一直營(yíng)業(yè)到晚上。
?、贖e stayed(remained)outside while we entered the room.(他留在外面,我們進(jìn)了屋子。)
2)當(dāng)表示“剩下”(即其余的一切都拿走、除去、破壞等)時(shí),通常只用remain而不用stay。
e.g.①After the earthquake(地震)very little remained of the city of Tang Shan( 一場(chǎng)地震以后,唐山這座城市所剩無(wú)幾。)
?、贗f you take 5 from 20,15 remains.從20中去5,剩余15。
3)當(dāng)表示“在某處或在某處住下”時(shí),通常用stay,不用 remain。
e.g.He wants to stay with a friend in the country.他想住在鄉(xiāng)下朋友那里。
4)兩者在含義上的區(qū)別是remain著重指在別人已離去或事情有變動(dòng)后,仍“繼續(xù)停留”或保持原來(lái)狀態(tài)、關(guān)系、行動(dòng)等。主語(yǔ)可以是人,也可以是物,而stay的主語(yǔ)通常是人,僅指“停留”、“逗留”。
e.g.①M(fèi)y father will stay home this week.這星期我父親將一直留在家里。
?、赪hen the others had gone,he remained and put back the chairs.(別人離去后,他留下來(lái),把椅子放回原處。)
Also:remain n.—(usu.pl) what is left(常用復(fù)數(shù))所剩下或遺留者
e.g.The remains of the meal are (is) in the refrigerator(電冰箱)。剩下的飯?jiān)陔姳淅铩?/p>

e.g.①A lot of them appear on television,too.他們中許多人還上了電視。
?、贖e appears old.他看來(lái)老了。
note:appears與seem,look的相同點(diǎn)和不同點(diǎn)
1)appear與look一樣,都憑視覺(jué)的印象而產(chǎn)生一種看法,但這種看法可能與實(shí)際不相符合。另外appear和seem要跟that從句或動(dòng)詞不定式,而look不能。
e.g.①He appears to have understood me.他似乎理解了我。
?、赟he didn’t seem to have changed much.她看起來(lái)沒(méi)有多大變化。
?、跧t appears that we must go.好像我們?cè)撟吡恕?/p>
2)look和seem可跟as if從句而appear不能,另外seem和look可與like連用。
e.g.①It looked as if it was going to snow.看起來(lái)天好像是要下雪。
?、贗t seems as if he were in a dream.看起來(lái)他好像是在做夢(mèng)。
?、跧t seems that the report is true.這報(bào)道好像是真的。

(3)value n.(u)—worth of something in terms of money or other goods for
which it can be exchanged 價(jià)格,交換力,購(gòu)買力
e.g.①He placed a value on the house.他對(duì)這房子作了一個(gè)估價(jià)。
?、贖is advice is of great value.他的勸告很重要。
note:value與price、cost和worth的相同與不同
1)這三個(gè)詞均有“價(jià)值”、“價(jià)”的含義。
2)value常指物的本身的價(jià)值,有時(shí)也被用作市價(jià)或交換價(jià)值。在這種意義上,一物的value常以人的主觀見(jiàn)解的改變而改變。
3)price指買者對(duì)于物品所要求的價(jià)錢(qián)。
4)cost指對(duì)物所付的代價(jià)。包括物的發(fā)現(xiàn)、產(chǎn)出、制造、裝修、搬運(yùn)及其它使此物變成現(xiàn)狀時(shí)所花去的一切費(fèi)用。通常物的“price”高于“cost”。
5)worth指物的本來(lái)的價(jià)值,屬永久的和不變的東西。
例如:繪畫(huà)的worth常是同一的。而它的value卻依人們的嗜好或時(shí)代不同而不同。
e.g.①What‘s the price of rice?大米的價(jià)錢(qián)是多少?
?、赥he cost of living is much higher now than it was.(現(xiàn)在的生活費(fèi)用比以前高多了。)
?、跦ow much is it worth?=(What is it worth?)這值多少錢(qián)?
6)“價(jià)值高或低”只能說(shuō)a high(low)price或something is expensive(cheap)。
7)“無(wú)論花多大的代價(jià)”,可以說(shuō)at any price或at all(any)costs。
e.g.We must drive out the enemy at all costs.(我們不惜任何代價(jià)要把敵人趕出去。)
(4)make fun of—cause people to laugh at嘲笑、取笑
e.g.①Those songs often made fun of them.那些歌曲常常是嘲笑他們的。
