1、初中中考英语常见词语辨析1. after/ in / later都有“之后”的意思，区别在于：.in是介词，用来表示从现在算起的“过一段时间以后”，常于将来时态的肯定句中，一般与go, come, start, arrive, return ( be back), finish等表示瞬间动作的终止性动词连用。如：Ill come and see you in two days. 两天之后我再来看你。.after是介词，用来表示在某一具体时间或某一具体事件以后，谓语动词可用于过去时，也可用将来时。如：He will arrive after four oclock. 他将在四点以后到达。She

2、said she would be back after five oclock. 注 此情况下时间名词应为点时间。after 还可以表示从过去某时起若干时间之后，谓语动词用过去时，不能用将来时。如：Lucy started after two days. 注 此时应为段时间名词。.later是副词，不能用于从讲话时刻算起的若干时间之后，要根据上下文推断从何时起至何时之后。如：I shall call on Mr Li on May 1st and shall call again about a week later. 五月一日我将拜访李先生，大约一星期之后我再来拜访。I shall cal

3、l again later.注 later只能放在段时间名词之后。.2.among/ between/ in the middle of. among “在之中/中间” 指三者或三者以上。通常表某个范围。如：Someone is wrong among us. 我们中间有人错了。There is a small village among the mountains. 大山之间有座小村庄。. between “在之间”指在二者之间，表示双方之间的关系，不论双方的数目是多少，有时与and 连用。如：There is a river between us. 在我们两人之间有一条河。Im stand

5、”通常指不包括爬行动物的较大的四足动物。如：The camel is a beast of burden. 骆驼是负重的动物。The tiger is a beast of prey. 老虎是猛兽。.4.another/ other/ more. 名词前表示具有增加意义的“还、再”，一般用 more 和 another. another置于数词前，而more，other置于数词后。other具有“不同”之意。保留它本意“别的”。如： one more thing, one other thing, another thing都表示“还有一件事”之意，如： I want three more /

6、 other books. = I want another three books.我还要三本书。I stayed there three more days. = I stayed there another three days. 我在那儿又呆了三天。（这里不用other， 因day与day没有不同之意。We need three more / another three hands to do the job.我们还需要三个人做这项工作。 （这里不用other ， 因不强调人与人的不同。）He works on the Great Green Wall with many other

7、people. 他与别的许多人一块在绿色长城上工作。（ other 没有增加之意，表除自己以外的别的人。）.5.another/ the other/ other/ others/ the others. another 指不定数目中的“另一个、又一个” （三个以上）用来代替或修饰可数名词。如：I dont think the coat is good enough.

They left a boy to answer the be

13、ll. 他们留下一个孩子应门。.reply “回答、答复”。 但比answer 正式些。它指用口头或书面回答。严格地讲，是指有针对性地详细地回答。 它也指用行动回答。 reply 常用作不及物动词，回答某人或某事。后接to; 当它与直接引语或从句连用时，才用作及物动词。如：I didnt reply to him.我没有答复他。 He replied that he might go. 他回答说他可能去。 .8.any/ either二者所指的相关名词或代词的数量不同。. any 指二个以上的“任意一个”人/物。如：When can you go with me to the city?

20、本相同，但arrive(in)/(at) 与reach, 是正式用语，get to 是通俗用词，常用于口语。（1）reach是个及物动词，它后面可以直接跟表示地点的名词作宾语。例如：We reached Shanghai at eight on Monday.（2）arrive是个不及物动词，后面接表示地点的名词作宾语时需在宾语前加介词in或at ，arrive + in + 大地方（国家、城市等）；arrive + at + 小地方（村庄、车站、码头等）。例如： We have already arrived in Shanghai.

23、o write a composition in English. 要学生写一篇英语作文。.16.as soon as/ as early as/ as quickly as. 这三个词都有“尽快、尽早”之意。. as soon as 侧重于“极短时间内”。还表示“一就”之意，引导状语从句。如：Ill return it as soon as I can.我将尽快地把它还给你。. as early as 侧重于一天中的早晨或在限定的时间内再早点，以便能达到预期的目的。如：You should arrive there as early as you can. 你应尽早到达那里。. as qui

24、ckly as 表做某事的速度非常之快或动作非常之敏捷。如：Please read the text as quickly as you can.请把课文尽快读一遍。.17.as soon as/ hardlywhen/ no soonerthan. 三者在意义上基本相同，都有“一就”，“刚就”，但它们各有其特点。. as soon as 最为普通，位置灵活，可在主句前，也可在其后。且可用作多种时态。如：As soon as I went in , Kate let out a cry of surprise. 我一进去，凯特就惊讶地叫了一声。Ill tell him as soon as h

27、食物，又给我衣服。（as well as重在强调其前面的人或事物）Small towns as well as big cities are being industrialized. 小城市与大城市一样都在迅速实现工业化。and虽也是连词，但表“和，与，同时”，表示并列或对称的关系，用来连接词、短语或句子：father and son父子；He and I are friends.他和我是朋友。as well as 一般只连接单词或短语,连接两个并列主语时，强调的是他前面的主语 ,谓语动词用就远原则，即谓语动词和前面的主语保持一致；而and 除了连接单词和短语之外，还可以连接两个句子构成并列

28、句，如果连接两个并列主语，谓语动词用复数形式。and 是连接并列的成分,as well asLily as well as Lucy is going there.Lily and Lucy are going there.最主要区别是as well as表伴随,不是主语!.19.as/ because/ for/ since. 这三个词都可以用作连词，表“原因、理由” 但有区别：. as “因为、既然”表示的原因或理由是明显的。语意不如because强。当理由是明显的，或者被认为是已知的时，则以用as 为好。如：As he was not well, I decided to go with

30、呆在家里，因为他病了。I did it because they asked me to do it. 我之所以做这件事，是因为他请我做的。-hy cant you do it now? - Because Im too busy. since“既然”比as 较为正式，说明为人所知的原因。语气比because 稍弱，译为“既然”。Since light travels faster than sound, we see lightening before we hear the thunder.因为光比声音传播得快，所以我们先看到闪电，后听到雷声。Since he cant answer th

31、e question, youd better ask someone.既然他回答不了这个问题，你最好问别人吧。Since you are busy, Ill do it for you.既然你忙，我替你做吧。. for “因为”表原因或理由时，用以说明理由，只是解释性的。在这几个词中，它的语意最弱。它少用于口语中，也不用于句首。如：I asked her to stay to tea, for I had something to tell her. 我请她留下来喝茶，因为我有事要告诉她。We must get rid of carelessness, for it often leads
