replyv./n.回答；答復(fù)

用作及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)，通常用于引出直接引語，也可接賓語從句；用作不及物動(dòng)詞時(shí)，如后面需要接賓語，要加介詞to。e.g.Maryrepliedthatshelovedcollectingstamps.Davidrepliedtohismother’sletterthismorning.Languagepointsanswer&reply單詞詞性不同點(diǎn)answern.answer是常用詞，此外它還可以指“答案；解決辦法”，而reply卻沒有此意。v.answer是及物動(dòng)詞。在answerthetelephone，answerthedoor等表達(dá)中，不可以使用reply。replyn.reply的用法比answer較正式，是指經(jīng)過考慮后的答復(fù)。v.reply除了后面可以跟直接引語或賓語從句以外，一般只用作不及物動(dòng)詞，常和介詞to連用。辨析【語境應(yīng)用】請(qǐng)用answer或reply的適當(dāng)形式填空。1)He________tomepolitelyinthelastletter.2)Iknockedatthedoor,buttherewasno________.3)Canyou________thesequestions?4)I

can’tfindthe________tothisquestion.repliedansweransweranswer2.…,butitwassilentandtherewasnosignofit……，但是周遭一片寂靜，沒有任何跡象。silent

adj.寂靜的e.g.Theoldhousewasquitesilent.

這所舊房子非常寂靜。WillyoupleasekeepsilentaboutwhatIdid?

請(qǐng)你別把我做的事說出去好嗎?

silencen.沉默；寂靜e.g.Theysatthereinsilence.

他們沉默地坐在那兒。quiet,calm,silent,still這些形容詞均含“平靜的，無聲無息”之意。quiet普通用詞，指沒有喧鬧、活動(dòng)或騷亂的寂靜狀態(tài)。calm普通用詞，既可指天氣、海洋等的平靜狀態(tài)，又可指人的鎮(zhèn)定沉著、不慌亂，不受外界影響和情緒支配。silent普通用詞，指緘默不語或無聲無息。still指平靜而又安定的狀態(tài)。辨析【語境應(yīng)用】用quiet，calm，silent或still填空：1）Thecrowdfell_______whenthePresidentappeared.2)Westood_______andwatchedasthedeercamecloser.3)Whenfacingdanger,oneshouldkeep_______.4)We'llhavetobe_______soasnottowakethebaby.5)Inclass,oneshouldn'tkeep______abouttheteacher’squestions.6)Whentakenphotos,oneshouldkeep_____.7)Thedoctordidwhathecouldtomakethegirl______.8)I'llbeas_______asamouse.Iwillnotdisturbhim.silentstillcalmquietsilentstillcalmquiet3.Farbelowme,thegroundfellawayanddowntoariver.地面(仿佛在隨光線)向下延伸，(逐漸)退落到下面的一條河里。below

prep.低于；在...下面e.g.Thetemperatureisbelowfreezing.

溫度低于冰點(diǎn)。Pleasedonotwritebelowthisline.

請(qǐng)不要寫到這條線下面。below指位置低于某物或在某物的下方，但不一定在正下方，其反義詞為above。under指在某物的正下方，也可指覆蓋于某物之下，其反義詞為overe.g.Thereisasmallrestaurantbelowthetopofthehill.

在山頂?shù)南路接幸粋€(gè)小餐廳。Myfootballisundermybed.。

我的足球在我的床底下。below&under辨析4.IlookeddowntotheColoradoRiver,asilverstreamnearlyonemilebelowme.

我俯視著距我一英里之遙的銀色的科羅拉多河。

nearlyadv.幾乎；差不多

notnearly=notatall遠(yuǎn)非；絕不是

e.g.Iwasnearlykilledintheaccidentlastweek.我差點(diǎn)在上周那場(chǎng)事故中沒命了。He’snotnearlyasgood-lookingashisbrother.

他的相貌遠(yuǎn)沒有他的兄弟那么迷人。詞條相同點(diǎn)不同點(diǎn)almostalmost和nearly

都可以表示“差不多；幾乎”，一般情況下，兩個(gè)詞可以互換使用。almost后面可以接no,none,nothing和never

等表示否定意義的詞，而nearly沒有這種用法。almost所表示的“差不多”程度比nearly要更大一些。nearlynearly前面可以用not來修飾，構(gòu)成notnearly，意為“遠(yuǎn)不及；相差很遠(yuǎn)”，而almost不能這么用。almost&nearly辨析5.Iremainedbythecanyonforabouthalfanhour…

我在峽谷邊佇立半小時(shí)有余……

remain

vi.(繼續(xù))待在某處e.g.Howlongareyougoingtoremainhere?

你準(zhǔn)備在這呆多久？remain

vi.留下；剩余e.g.Afterthewind,onlysomeleavesremained.

一陣風(fēng)起，只有一些樹葉沒有落下。remain

linkingv.仍然，(繼續(xù))保持，后接名詞或形容詞。e.g.Theyremainfriends.他們依然是朋友。Completethepassagewiththewordsinthebox.
