初中英语常见错误之T系列　　take 　　[误] This year I want to take the drivers license.
　　[正] This year I want to get the drivers license.
　　[析] take可以作为动词，意为拿、取，如： I want to take my mail.
而要获得某种证书、证明，要用get而不用take， take在学校范围内意为参加或选修某些课程，如： This term I want to take both French and Spanish.
　　[误] The accident was taken place at the street corner.
　　[正] The accident took place at the street corner.
　　[析] take place与happen一样作为发生讲时没有被动语态。
　　[误] Do you take me as a fool 　　[正] Do you take me for a fool 　　[析] takefor意为以为是、错当作、误认为，而这一意思还可以用于I took you to be the best friend.
(我把你认作是较好的朋友。
) 　　[误] My English teacher was ill.
Who will take place her 　　[正] My English teacher was ill.
Who will take the place of her 　　[析] take the place of意为取代。
　　talk 　　[误] Yesterday I met an old friend.
We talked many things.
　　[正] Yesterday I met an old friend.
We taked about many things.
　　[析] talk是不及物动词。
　　team [误] Our team likes seeing film.
　　[正] Our team like seeing film.
　　[析] team与family，class等词一样，指整体时为单数名词。
如： Our team is excellent, 而指集体中的个体时要用作复数。
　　than 　　[误] They made fewer mistakes this term than they made last lerm.
　　[正] They made fewer mistakes this term than they did last lerm.

　　[正] I got into the rest room then someone knocked at the door.
　　[析] than与then不要误用。
　　then 　　[误] We went to the cinema, then went to a Chinese restaurant.
　　[正] We went to the cinema, and then went to a Chinese restaurant.
　　[正] We went to the cinema; then went to a Chinese restaurant.
　　[析] then作然后讲时，在then前应加分号而不用逗号，或加逗号用and then，但是如果是倒装句则要用逗号，如： First come Tom, then Mary.
　　think 　　[误] I think you are not right.
　　[正] I dont think you are right.
　　[析] think在肯定句中与中文的习惯用法是遥的，如： I think you are right.
但在宾语从句是否定意思时，要否定think，如： I dont think you are right.
　　[误] I think he will come here, do I 　　[正] I think he will come here, wont he 　　[析] think加宾语从句时，反意疑问句的主语应用宾语从句中的主语，助动词要用宾语从句中的助动词，而肯定还是否定要看主句中的情况决定：如主句用肯定句，则反意疑问句用否定句，反之亦然。
　　[误] People think very high of his work.
　　[正] People think very highly of his work.
　　[析] think highly of为对某人某事评价很高。
　　[误] When we talk about Chinese people we always think the Yellow River.

　　[析] think about意为想起、想到。
　　thousand 　　[误] He got thousand of books from a secondhandbook shop.
　　[正] He got thousands of books from a secondhandbook shop.
　　[析] 虽然two thousand, three thousand在thousand后都不加s，但thousands of则为数千，该结构中一定要加s。

　　[正] I had a long distance call with John on the telephone.

如： The river was frozen, so we could walk across it.
I pushed through the crowds to the entrance.
　　throw 　　[误] He threw a stone to me.
　　[正] He threw a stone at me.
　　[析] 扔这个词表示方向时要注意他向我扔石头是at me，我向他扔石头则为to him，但throw at还有寻衅之意，如： Stop throwing stones at the cars.
这时不要误用to.
　　time 　　[误] The doctor came on time so she was saved.
　　[正] The doctor came in time so she was saved.
　　[析] in time为及时赶到，如： Do you think we can get there in time for the first act.
而on time 意为准时，如： The train arrived on time.
　　[误] It is time we go home.
　　[正] It is time we should go home.
　　[正] It is time we went home.
　　[析] 是该作某事的时候了，其句形为： ① It is time for somebody to do something.
② It is time+从句，从句中用should+动词原形，或直接用动词的过去式。
　　[误] Lets hurry.
We havent many times.
　　[正] Lets hurry.
We havent much time.
　　[误] I have been to America two times.
　　[正] I have been to America twice.

但遥不是one time，而是once;二次不是two times，而是twice;三次则是three times.
　　too 　　[误] This box is too heavy to lift it.
　　[正] This box is too heavy to lift.
　　[析] 在tooto这一结构中，如果主语和不定式的宾语是遥的，则不要重复。
　　[误] The child is too young not to go to school.
　　[正] The child is too young to go to school.
　　[析] tooto这一结构用来表示太以致于不能，但下面的句子则不能照此翻译： Im too glad to meet you.
应译为我见到你真太高兴了。
　　[误] There is much too noise.
　　[正] There is too much noise.
　　[析] much too+形容词，而too much+遥数名词。
　　[误] You have bought too much tomatoes.
　　[正] You have bought too many tomatoes.
　　[析] too many后才加可数名词。
　　also as well too 　　这三个词是近义词，但其用法各有不同。
其一，too和as well通常用于句末，如： She went to the cinema and her brother went too.
而also则不用于句末，如： Ive also read her other novels.
其二，这三个词都不用于否定句中，否定句中用noteither，或neither/nor,如： He isnt here either.
　　trousers 　　[误] My trouser is getting smaller and smaller.
　　[正] My trousers are getting smaller and smaller.
　　[析] 英语中trousers, pants, shorts(短裤)，glasses(眼镜)都要用复数形式。
　　[误] This pair of glasses are very good.
　　[正] This pair of glasses is very good.
　　[析] 有了量词a pair of，其后的谓语动词要与量词相遥。
如： two pairs of的谓语动词就要用复数。

　　[正] I tried sending her flowers but it didnt have any effect.
(我试着给她送花，但没有什么结果。
) 　　[误] Please try understanding it.

　　[析] try+动名词的意思是试一试，或做某事看看会发生什么情况，而try+不定式表示为达到目的要去做的事。
