   1. since vs. for


  “since”和“for”的用法都与时间有关,不同的是前者要与时间点一起使用,比如Monday、January和2009,后者则是与时间段一起使用,比如30 minutes、6 months和10 years,“for”可以用于所有时态,而“since”通常用于完成时。“He jogs 1 for 1 hour everyday。”这句话中“for”后面跟着的就是一段时间,“He's been jogging since 7am。”这句话中“since”后面跟着的就是一个时间点。
  2. fewer vs. less
  “fewer”和“less”适用的名词类型是完全相反的,“fewer”适用于可数名词,比如books、cars、people或者cups,而“less”则适用于不可数名词,比如love、water、electricity或者information。举个例子,你可以说“This parking 2 lot is too crowded. I wish there were fewer cars。”,句子里的car是可数名词,所以前面用“fewer”修饰;你也可以说“I wish you would turn off the lights, so we could use less electricity。”,这里的electricity是不可数名词,所以用“less”来修饰。
  3. Adjective 3 Order
  当你使用一个以上的形容词的时候,请记住,这些形容词的排列都是有一定顺序的,“It's a red big car。”这样的表达是错误的,正确表达应为“It's a big red car。”。
  通常形容词的排列顺序是这样的:①数量或数词 ②质量或评价 ③大小 ④形状 ⑤年龄 ⑥颜色 ⑦国籍 ⑧材质。当然,一般来说描述一件事物不会使用超过三个的形容词,所以你很少会遇到需要把上述所有顺序都用上的情况。
  4. may vs. might
  “may”和“might”的区别很小,都表示“可能”,所以很难把握准确使用它们的时机。但是二者还是有区别的,“might”的可能性比“may”更小。“I might take a trip to India next year。”的意思是明年你有可能去印度,也有可能不去,而“I may have a slice of cake after dinner。”则是表示你会在饭后吃蛋糕的可能性相当高。
  除此之外,“might”还是“may”的过去式,所以在现在时态你可以说“He may eat the last piece of cake。”,但是过去时态你就要说“He might have eaten the last piece of cake。”。
  5. bring vs. take
  “bring”和“take”都表示“带”,但是方向有所不同,二者之间的关系有点类似于“come”和“go”,“bring”意为“带来”,可以用在你需要别人把东西带到你的所在地的情况,比如“Bring that book here。”,“take”意为“带走、带去”,可以用在你要把东西带到目的地的时候,比如“Please take me home。”。
  6. me vs. myself
  不管是以英语为母语的人,还是英语学习者,都会混淆“me”和“myself”。许多母语不是英语的人会在应该使用“me”的时候用“myself”,因为他们认为“myself”比“me”更有礼貌,其实这是错误的。“me”是人称代词宾格,是动作实施对象,例如“Please call me if you have any questions。”;“myself”是反身代词,用在自己要对自己实施某动作的时候,例如“I gave myself a break from studying today。”。
  7. could, should, or would
  这三个读音相近的词困扰了不少英语学习者。
  “should”用来提供建议,比如“That shirt looks great on you. I think you should buy it。”。
  “would”则是用来描述不可能或者虚拟的事情,比如“I would love to go to Italy, but I don't have enough money。”,这句话就是在说一件不可能发生的事。而“would”也可以表示委婉语气,就像这句“Would you like some tea?”
  “could”有三种用法:
  ①描述过去的能力,例:“When I was younger, I could run twice as fast。”
  ②描述将来可能发生的事,例:“If we work really hard, I think we could save up enough money for a vacation this year。”
  ③用于礼貌请求,例:“Could I have a cup of tea?”
  8. there, their, or they're
  这三个词发音相同,用法却完全不同。
  “There”可以表示“那里”,表示一个指定地方,例如“The book is over there on the table。”;“there”也可以和be动词一起使用构成“there+be"句型,例如“There are 5 cafes on this street。”。
  “Their”是形容词性物主代词,意为“他(它)们的”,例如“That's their house。”。
  “They're”是“they are”的缩写,用法也是一样,你可以说“They're going to play soccer with us tonight。”,也可以说“They are going to play soccer with us tonight。”,意思完全一样。
  9. its vs. it's
  和上一条一样,这两个词读音相同,用法完全不同。“it's”是“it is”的缩写,用法也是相同,你可以说“It's really cold outside today。”,也可以说“It is really cold outside today。”,意思完全相同。“its”则是“it”的物主代词形式,意为“它的”,例如“This city is known 4 for its amazing pasta 5。”。
  10. a vs. the
  许多语言中并没有使用定冠词与不定冠词,因此对有些英语学习者来说,这是种难以区分的概念。当你在谈论一件事物的时候,一般使用不定冠词“a”,例如“Let's watch a movie。”,这句话中的“movie”并没有特指;如果你要谈论的事物大家都很熟悉,那就可以使用定冠词“the”,例如“Let's watch the movie。”,这句话中的“movie”则是表示一部谈话双方都知道的、正在谈论的电影。
