1. explain

​典型错误：Please explain me how to join a tennis club.

​正确表达：explain不属于可带双宾语的动词，可以说：explain sth. (to sb.)或explain to sb. sth.，故上句应改为:

​Please explain to me how to join a tennis club.

​类似用法的动词还有say, suggest etc. 

例：I have something to say to you.What did you suggest to the manager?

​2. provide

​典型错误：They provided him money and clothes.

​正确表达：provide作“给……提供”解时，常构成：provide sb. with sth.或provide sth. (for sb.) 

例：John provides me with all the necessities of existence.

​类似动词有supply（供给），常构成：supply sb. with sth.或supply sth. to sb.

 例：Foreign governments supplied arms to the rebels.

​3. serve

​典型错误：A slave serves for his master.

​正确表达：serve表“为……服务；接待（顾客）；侍候吃饭、端（菜）；服刑等”解时，常用作及物动词，故不与介词连用，上句中须去掉介词for。

例：We should serve our country. (为……服务)

​I am still waiting tobe served. (接待)

​He has served half his sentence. (服刑)

​△短语serve for 表示的是“充当、用作、用……作；够……用、适用于、对……合适。”之意。

例：This box will have to serve for a table until the furniture arrives.

​This house will serve for my simple needs, but will it serve for the whole family?

​这房子可以满足我的简单需要，但对全家来说够用吗？

​4. enter

​典型错误：She entered into the house.

​正确表达：enter表示“进来（去）”时后面不跟介词。在非正式英语中多用come into和go into。

例：She entered the room without being noticed.

​△ 短语enter into常用于正式场合，表示：

​a. “开始讨论、着手处理”。

例：Let’s not enter into details at this moment.

​b. “积极参加、投入”。

例：We entered into the spirit of Christmas. 我们开始感受到了圣诞节的气氛。

​c. “开始、参与”(此时其后常接表“抽象概念的词”。)

例：They entered into a contract/an agreement. 他们订立了合同/达成了协议。

​5. discuss

​典型错误：Peter refused to discuss about the matter.

​正确表达：discuss表“讨论、谈论”时是及物动词，故上句中须去掉介词about。例：She has something of great importance to discuss with you.They discussed whether they had done anything wrong.

​6. follow

​典型错误：The child followed after his mother up the stairs.

​正确表达：follow作“跟随；沿着（走）；遵循；理解等”时，常为及物动词。故上句中须删除介词after。

例：August follows July.Then you are going to follow her advice, aren’t you?Do you follow what I am saying?

​7. return

​典型错误：They didn’t return back home till nine o’clock.

​正确表达：return不与back连用，故上句中须去掉back。但可用come/go back。例：My friend and I return to town by the midnight express.It’s suddenly come back to me where I saw you last. 我突然回想起来最近在什么地方见过你。

​8. repea

t典型错误：Please repeat that again.

​正确表达：repeat不与again连用，故上句须去掉again。但可用say……again。

例：You can say that again!

​9. congratulate

​典型错误：She congratulated them for what they had achieved.

​正确表达：congratulate (祝贺、道贺)常与介词on/upon连用。

例：We congratulated him on having passed the examination.

​10. passed

​典型错误：I past my driving test.

​正确表达：动词pass的一般过去时变化是规则的，即passed; 而past不是动词形式，可作形容词、名词、介词和副词。故应将上句中的past改为passed。

例：I’ve been ill for the past two weeks.The old man is living in the past. 这位老人现在生活在过去之中。

​11. cross

​典型错误：The soldiers acrossed the bridge by means of ladders.

​正确表达：作介词或副词的across不能单独作谓语，可将上句中的acrossed改为动词crossed或went across。

​12. during

​典型错误：During you are away, I’ll be kind to him.

​正确表达：during （在……内；在……时期中）是一介词，故不能作关联词。上句须改为：While you are away, I’ll be kind to him. 例：Not a word did they exchange during the meal.

​13. between

​典型错误：You’re to sit between Tom and I.

​正确表达：介词between(在……之间)后的代词应用宾格，故上句应改为：You’re to sit between Tom and me.

​14. more

​典型错误：My room is much more better than the one next door.

​正确表达：上句中better已是形容词比较级，故须去掉more。

​15．upstairs

​典型错误：We go to upstairs to bed.

​正确表达：作副词时，upstairs及downstairs前不用介词，上句应改为：We go upstairs to bed.16. lately典型错误：He got here five minutes lately.正确表达：lately是指“最近（recently）”,而late作副词时是表示“晚；到很晚”，故上句应改为：He got here five minutes late.Have you seen her lately?

​△ 试比较以下含“形似意异”词语的句子：

​a. He works hard in school while his brother hardly ever reads a book.在校他努力学习然而他弟弟几乎不读书。

​b. Most of them, who were mostly friends of the manager, were saved in the fire.他们中的大多数被从火灾中救了出来，他们主要是经理的朋友。

​c. Only when December draws near do I realize that it’s nearly Christmas.只有当十二月临近我才意识到几乎已是圣诞节了。

​17. price

​典型错误：The owner charged an expensive price for his new flat.

​正确表达：price常与high/reasonable/right/low 等连用，而expensive, cheap则常与表“物品”的名词连用。

例：Loneliness is a high price to pay for independence in your old age.孤寂是老年独自生活要付出的高昂代价。

​I can’t afford the car; it’s too expensive.

​18. from place to place

​典型错误：Fishes in the ocean are carried from places to places by tides.

​正确表达：英语中通常讲究一个平行结构原则：两个相同的名词放在一个平行结构里，名词一般用单数且前通常不加冠词。

例：face to face（面对面）hand in hand（手牵手）side by side （并肩）shoulder to shoulder（并肩、协力）neck and neck(赛马等)并驾齐驱、不分上下day by day(指渐进的过程)day after day（重复的单一的行动）

​△ 但在谚语“以眼还眼 以牙还牙。”中则是：an eye for an eye (and a tooth for a tooth)

​19. key

​典型错误：The key of success is preparation.

​正确表达：key作“最重要的事；答案、解释、说明等”解时，其后常与to连用，构成the key to sth. 

例：Here is a key to the grammar exercises.

​20. what

​典型错误：All what I am afraid of is their taking him to Paris.

​正确表达：关系代词型的what相当于the thing(s) that (which)，其前不能再用先行词。上句可改为：All that I am afraid of is their taking him to Paris. 或What I am afraid of is their taking him to Paris.
