轻松掌握易混词组 即时起开始连续给大家介绍一些易混淆的词语和词组的用法。希望通过些讲解，能够帮助大家学会深层次得运用短语。 1 in fashion / in a fashion 疑：in fashion 与in a fashion 这两个看似相近的短语有何区别？ 解：in fashion 一般指“流行”、“很时髦”，而 in a fashion 则是指“勉强”、“大不好”（相当于 after a fashion） 。 让我们来看两个例句，聪明的你一定能明白的： 1) Long shirts for women are no longer in fashion 女长裙已经不流行了。 2) She can play the piano in a fashion. 她勉强能弹点钢琴（她钢琴弹得不好） 小结：大家发现了没有，通过上下文来记忆词组无疑是最好的手段。以上这对词组属于只要加强语感就能清晰记牢的，大家试试吧。 第二讲： 先来看看他们是谁：uninterested和 disinterested两个看起来极其类似的词。 我教的几个学生就常常把它们搞混淆，还理直气壮地跟我争辩：“ un- 和 dis- 都是否定前缀，按说 uninterested与disinterested的意义应当相同”，但结果是，他们相去甚远， 让我们来揭开它们的真面目吧： uninterested in 其实是指“对。。。无兴趣”（即 not interested in）、“不关心的”。它的反义词应该是 interested in. 还是用例句来说话吧： 1. I am uninterested in politics. 我对政治不感兴趣。 2. I told him the news but he seemed uninterested. 我把这消息告诉他，但是他好像不感兴趣。 3. Kokoluke was uninterested in that girl. Kokoluke 对那个妞不感兴趣 ：） 经验：怎么样，几个examples看下来，感性认识总该有了吧？我教我学生的土记忆方法就是：un 就是“不”， interested 就是“感兴趣”，那么合在一起自然就是 “不感兴趣”喽? 再来看看 disinterested , 它一般是作“无私心的”、“公正的”、“公平的”、“无偏见的”解，废话少说，看例句： 1. A webmaster must be disinterested in the tips he tries 版主们对待帖子必须公正 （这是作版主的准则之一呀，如果沪江的版主做不到，可以向阿诺告状） 2 His action was not disinterested because he hoped to make money out of the affair. 他这么做不是没私心的，因为他想从此事中捞些钱。 经验：其实这个词也可以理解着记忆的，这里的 interested 可以作“利益”“私心”来讲，dis 则表示否定。合在一起就是没有私心的，没有私心自然不会有所偏颇，也就是公平公正啦 英语学习要学得精!抓住有用的东西就要认真消化。不可走马观花。好啦，不说教啦，否则大家肯定烦 。 第三讲 今天我给大家带来两个很实用的单词：alternate / alternative 。无论是在口语还是写作中，都极容易碰到它们。但它们又是极容易混淆的，(跟大家透个底，阿诺也是花了好长时间才最后掌握他们的) 先说说 alternate ， 它的准确意思应该是：交替的、每隔一。。。的 如何理解呢？ 很简单： 1. Arnoldfu works on his website alternate days. 阿诺隔天忙一次他的网站（大家见谅，最近上班上课挺忙的） ? 注意，这里 alternate 后面要接 days 而不是 day。因为每隔一天就是每两天的意思。正如大家熟悉的 every ten minutes , this two dollars .. 等等一样。原来，英语语法中有一条规则：限定词与所修饰的名词（中心词）在数上相一致（如this man, a man, every man，these men，those men）， 但是，当限定词与表示度量的名词短语连用时，限定词与其所修饰的名词（中心词）在数上常常有不一致的情况，例如： every three days 每三天 The American people elect a president every four years.美国人每四年选一次总统。 2． alternate laughter and tears 时笑时哭 Ok, alternate 就此搞定。 接下来摆平 alternative 吧: Alternative 的意思是：其他的、可替代的、两种之中可供选择的、几种之中可供选择的。 Example: 1. Uibeanna solved this problem by the alternative method. Uibeanna用另一个办法解决了这道题。(大家放心问难题吧，Uibeanna版主一定会帮你摆平的) 2． It will take time to develop alternative energy sources. 开发其他的能源是需要时间的 3． There are alternative answers to your question. 你的问题有几个可供选择的答案。 小结：大家可以看昨出，alternate 与 alternative 虽然长得有点像，可是意思相去甚远，所以面对英语单词最好不要“望形”揣测。而是实事求是，查词典搞明白它们。 给大家布置两道作业题： 1 Alternative sources of protein must be found when meat and fish are not available. A . New sources B. Less expensive sources C. More sources D. Other sources 2 It is advisable to have an alternative plan. A. a substitute B. a better C. an easier D. an equal 第四讲 executor, executioner 和 executive executor最常用的意思是“遗嘱执行人，执行遗嘱的银行”： example: 1 The man named his lawyer as his executor. 那人指定他的律师做他的遗嘱执行人。 2 He appointed the bank to act as his executor 他指定这家银行作为他的遗嘱执行者。 其它的意思姑且就不用记了，英语单词学习最重要的一条是，要先记住单词最重要常用的意思。 executioner就更好记了，大家只要记住以下这张图就没问题了： 没错，就是 刽子手 executive就值得多费些口舌啦。它有两个主要意思。先来看它的名词意思“管理人员；行政官；董事；行政部门”。说难也简单，我给大家看几个与 executive 相关的实用短语，包你快速消化： the Chief Executive （美）总统；洲长；最高行政官 The President of the U.S. is the Chief Executive. 美国的总统是美国最高行政长官。 其实我们现在常听到的 CEO 也就是 Chief Executive Officer（执行总裁） 的简称。 a high executive of a company 公司的高级管理人员 party executives 政党官员 a plant executive 工厂的高级管理人员 the production executive of Hollywood 好莱坞的制片负责人 ... executive 的形容意思主要包括：“执行的，行政官的，实行的具有、关于、有能力或适合执行或实行的” 如： an webmaster team lacking executive powers. 版主管理团队缺乏执行权力(沪江的正式版主都有此权力哟) executive authorities 行政部门 首 页 高 考 自 考 考试资源 高中英语 秘书考试 计算机考试 四六级英语 今日要闻 考 研 中 考 雅 思 公共英语 大学英语 英语教学 公务员考试 知心港湾 精选美女 英汉互译中的谚语巧合 俚语和谚语是英语学习中的一大绊脚石。我们不明白这些俗语的含义，是因为我们和英语国家的文化背景不同。如果能在汉语中为这些俗语找到对应的说法，问题就解决了。我们向你介绍一些英汉合璧的俚语和谚语，帮助你的英语学习更上一层楼。 1.After meat, mustard; after death, doctor . 雨后送伞 Explanation: this describes a situation where assistance or comfort is given when it is too late.
