pronunciation and speaking
Language Points
1. But nobody was late, except me.
但是没有人迟到,除了我。
(1)except “除……之外”,后面可接名词、代词、v.-ing形式、副词、介词短语和从句等。
E.g. We have an English lesson every day except Sunday.
除星期天外,我们每天有一堂英语课。(星期天不上)
(2)besides “除……外, 另外还有”, 着重“另外还有”。
E.g. Besides English, he has to study German.
除了英语, 他还要学德语。 (学英语)
(3)except for也表示“除……以外”,指对某种基本情况进行具体的细节方面的修正。
E.g. I can answer all the questions except for the last one.
除了最后一题外,所有题目我都可以解答。
2. Maybe I should go to school by taxi.
或许我应该乘出租车上学。
(1)maybe “或许;可能”, 副词,在句中作状语,相当于perhaps,常位于句首。
E.g. Maybe she’ll come this afternoon.
她可能今天下午来。
【辨析】
May be中,may是情态动词,be是动词原形,两者构成完整的谓语形式,与主语形成系表结构,意为“也许是、可能是”。
E.g. He may be a soldier. 他可能是名军人。
(2)by taxi “乘坐出租车”
by+交通工具 “乘……, 坐……”。
注意:表示交通工具的名词前不能有冠词。
