同意刘老师的解答。补充两点供参考:1. of a kind“相同种类的”,用法同of the same kind;of a kind的另一个意思是“蹩脚的;徒有其名的”。例如:A library usually keeps books of a kind together. 图书馆通常把同类书放在一起。He is a poet of a kind. 他是个蹩脚的诗人。2. kind of“有点儿;有几分;稍微”,...

译文:我16岁就开始挣钱了,就是这样的!从未停止。1.that was that“就这么决定了;就这么办;(情况)就是这样”,是惯用表达,常用以加强语气。如:I won't agree to it and that's that. 我不会同意的,就这样!《剑桥高级学习词典》 "I want you to go home." — "I'm staying here. and...

同意Webster老师的解答。费致德《现代英语惯用法词典》对这个问题也有类似的解释:go (come) + infinitive without to本来是古体的方言。第二个动词表示去的目的。美国人在口语中,现在还常用。例:He left his grandmother's house to go live (go to live) in Chicago. 他离开祖母家到芝加哥去住了。Come have a drin...

个人认为,We are family.中的family应为名词,前面省略了a或one,是否一定可以省略值得商榷,也许是为了歌词的简洁吧。a/one family并不一定要指“有血缘关系的一家人”。如:Workers and peasants are one family.(《新英汉词典》上海译文出版社)I want you to show me with your hearts that here we are all part of on...

同意两位老师的解答。as a tool在这里可以理解为方式状语,但也有不少人将其理解为补足语。刘重德《英语AS的用法研究》中有如下解释:as用作不定关系副词、引导表语从句或宾补从句。例如:This is as it should be.这本应如此。Let's keep it as it is.让我们把它照原样保存起来吧。

同意龙老师的解答。这里对have time doing稍作一点补充:在“have time doing”中要根据time前作定语的形容词的词义来确定该短语的意义。1. have a hard (terrible/tough/bad/difficult...) time doing表做某事费劲、困难。例如:He had a hard time squeezing through the crowd to get up to the platform.他好不容易才挤到...

as such是习语,意为“照此, 象这样, 就这一点而论”,常位于句首,有时也位于句中。例如:As such, evolution did not come out of zero. 照这么说来,进化就不是无中生有。As such, it changes the nature of some things. 正因为如此,它改变了某些事物的本质。The government is the main contributor and, as such, cont...

1.what is the matter相当于 what is wrong,都是“主+系+表”结构。wrong是形容词,matter是名词,在表示“问题;毛病”时,“定冠词+matter”被当作形容词使用,意义同wrong。例如:There's nothing the matter with it. 这没有问题。《牛津高阶英汉双解词典》▲因此,“What's wrong?”的意义也常用“What's the matte...

在英语传统语法中,动词-ing根据其属性被分为“动名词”和“现在分词”两类。1. 动名词前加上物主代词或名词所有格可构成“动名词的复合结构”,即给动名词加了一个逻辑主语,常用作主语、宾语或表语。若不是处在句子主语的位置上,动名词前既可用物主代词或名词所有格,也可用名词的普通格或人称代词的宾格。例如:Tom’s / His s...
