四、最后,来做个小测试
You must cancel out all the charges before you _____ the hotel.
你在离开旅馆前必须付清各项费用把账销了再走。
你不知道的leave与forget用法小区别
leave作为动词讲意为:离开;留下;遗忘。为及物动词,后加名词或代词作宾语。如:
leave home(离开家)
leave the country(离开这个国家)
If you don’t like the food, leave it.(剩下,留下)
Leave me alone.(别管我,别烦我)
Please leave a message(留言)
leave the door open(系动词,使某物处于某种状态)
The bomb blast left 25 people dead. 那颗炸死了25个人。
我们着重来看一看这个意思——“忘了带;丢下”,英文解释为“to go away from a place without taking sth/sb with you”,从英文解释中也不难看出,leave的“忘记”,主要强调一个“地点”,“忘记在某处”,“把某物留在了某地”:
My dad often leaves his bag in his office.(in his office表示物品所遗留的地点)
I’ve left my bag on the bus. (on the bus也表示物品所遗留的地点)
Cinderella leaves a shoe behind.(当被遗留的地点不是很明确,或者不需要说明的时候,我们就直接加上一个“behind”,表面意思为“遗忘在身后”)
leave后也可以接动词,两种形式,但是动词的形式不一样,意义也不一样。
leave sb doing sth(留下某人继续做某事)
The mother went out, left the baby crying. 妈妈走了,留下小孩一个人在那里哭。
leave sb to do sth(留下某人做某事)
I'll leave you to get to know each other. 我让你们自己互相认识一下。
be leaving用进行时态实际表示将来时态。翻译为“将要离开”。
口语用法: Leave it.行啦!就这样!别管啦!
forget: 忘记,遗忘
forgetDon’t forget what I said. 不要忘记我说过的话。
I never forget a face. 见过的面孔我从不忘记。
Susan forgot how much she paid for the TV.苏珊忘记她花多少钱买这台电视机了。
同样,forget后也可以接动词,两种形式,但是动词的形式不一样,意义也不一样。
forget doing sth忘了已做过某事
Grandma forgot closing the door. 奶奶年岁大了,出门后又折回来关门,其实她忘了她已经关好门了。
forget to do sth忘了应去做某事
He forgot to have supper.他太忙了,以至于晚饭都忘了吃了。
be forgetting用进行时态实际表示完成时态。翻译为“忘了”。
口语用法: Forget it!不提了!算了!想都别想!
同义句:
Hey, don’t forget me! 喂,走时别落下我。(forget 忘记)
Hey, don’t leave without me!(leave 离开)
总的来说,当leave和forget都表示遗忘某物的时候,用法上会有混淆,你只要搞清楚,leave后要加地点,外加leave……behind,leave……alone这样的固定词组。而forget后千万不能加地点就行。
