1、中考英语易错题（19）1. lonely 误She wanted to do her homework lonely.正She wanted to do her homework alone析lonely意为“寂寞的”、“孤单的”，如：The old man felt lonely. alone则意为“独自的”、“单独的”，如：He lives alone but he doesnt feel lonely.2. long 误I have been studying long for the exam.正I have been studying for a long time for the
2、exam.析long用作表达时间的副词时，在否定句及疑问句中最常用，但在肯定句中除与so, too, as. as连用外，一般要用for a long time.误Ill call you as long as the book will be returned.正Ill call you as long as the book is returned.析as. as引导的状语从句中可以用一般现在时表示将来。误How long do you go to see your parents? Once a week.正How often do you go to see your parents?
3、 Once a week.析因为答语为每周一次所以问的是频率，要用how often.3. look look for, find look for 侧重于“寻找”这个动作，如：What are you looking for? 而find则侧重于结果，如：It is very difficult to find a job. 这里不能用look for，因为真正困难的是“找到”工作。其他用法还有：例He often looks back on his high school days.析look back on something 为“回顾”、“回想”。例I wish you wouldnt
4、 look down on (upon) the childrens work.析look down on (upon) 为“看不起”某人或某事。误Im looking forward to see you.正Im looking forward to seeing you.析look forward to词组中的to是介词，所以其后要加名词或动名词，不能接不定式。4. lot 误I can buy this dictionary now, because I have got much money.正I can buy this dictionary now because I have g
5、ot a lot of money.析much money多用于疑问句与否定句中，而在肯定句中要用a lot of. lots of 与a lot of之间无多大区别，两者都可以修饰可数与不可数名词，所以常常可以互换。误He is more happier now.正He is a lot happier now.析不可用more来修饰比较级，能修饰比较级的词有very much, a lot, lots, any, no, rather, a little, a bit等。5. make误The little boy was made repeat the whole story.正The
6、little boy was made to repeat the whole story.误The father made his son to do his homework from morning till night.正The father made his son do his homework from morning till night.析make 的句型为“make somebody do (doing) something”。但在被动语态中原来被省去的不定式符号to要被还原回来。误I always do this mistake.正I always make this m
7、istake.析英语中do和make是十分不易弄清的两个动词，do常用于谈论工作时或某种不确定的活动时，如：do a favour（帮个忙），do ones best（竭尽全力），do good（有益），do harm（有害），而多数情况下常用make, 如：make a suggestion, make a cake, make a bed（收拾床），make a noise, make money等等。误This wine was made of grapes.正This wine was made from grapes.析当成品制成后，其原料的性质有所改变时应用make from，否则
8、用make of，如：This door was made of iron.误Hard work can often make up a lack of intelligence.正Hard work can often make up for a lack of intelligence.析make up是“创造”、“编织”，而make up for是“弥补的不足之处”。上句应译为“勤奋工作可以弥补天资的不足。”误We made up our mind to study hard.正We made up our minds to study hard.析mind这里是可数名词，使用时要特别予
9、以注意make up ones mind是“下定决心”之意。误Our class is made of twenty girls and twenty one boys.正Our class is made up of twenty girls and twenty one boys.析make up of. 是“某物由组成或构成”。6. many 误I have many friends.正I have a lot of friends.析many和much多用于疑问句或否定句中，而在肯定句中则用处不多，尤其在非正式谈话中。如：- How much money have you got?-
10、Ive got plenty.误You bought much too tomatoes.正You bought too many tomatoes.析too many后接可数名词，too much后接不可数名词，而much too后面接形容词，意为“太多”。误For many a weeks it rained a lot.正For many a week it rained a lot.析many a意为“好多”、“许多”，但其后面要加单数名词。7. matter误No matter what you did.正No matter what you did, I trusted you.析
11、No matter是个词组，意为“不论”，它的语法功能是起连接作用，所以不能用于一个单独的句子。it doesnt matter这个词组则不是一个连接词组，所以可以和一个单句连用，如：It doesnt matter what you say. （你说什么都不要紧。）8. maybe 误May be he is right.正Maybe he is right.析maybe是副词，不要错用为may be.maybe, perhaps 这两个词的词意一样，maybe常用于非正式谈话，而perhaps则多用在正式文体中。如： Maybe / Perhaps the weather will get
12、 better. 而Julius Caesar is perhaps the greatest of Shakespeares early plays.9. mend 误I want to have my bike mended.正I want to have my bike repaired.析mend意为“缝补”，如：My mother mended my coat. 而repair是“修理”。10. mind 误Could you mind to close the door? 正Could you mind closing the door?误Try to make up your mind studying hard.正Try to make up your mind to study hard.析mind用作动词时，其后加动名词；而用作名词意为“下定决心”时，其后要加不定式。要注意Do you mind if I smoke?的答语：如果你不介意，应回答“No, go ahead.”如果你不想让对方吸烟，则应讲“Yes, please dont.”
