an accident happened to her the day before yesterday.  前天她出了一场车祸。

  (2) happen to do sth. 意为“碰巧做某事”。     eg:

i happened to see him in the park. 我碰巧在公园里看见了他。

  [注] happen多指偶然发生的事情；而take place多指事情是有计划的。两者都属于不及物动词,不能用于被动语态。    eg:

     the accident happened at about 9:00.   事故发生在9点左右。

     the meeting will take place tomorrow.  会议将明天举行。

2. pair

  pair 意为“一对，一双”，修饰名词时用a pair of。“a pair of+名词复数”作主语时，谓语

动词要用单数形式。若表示两/三/几双（对）时，要用two/three/several pairs of。它作主语

时，谓语动词用复数形式。    eg:

  i wear a pair of glasses.  我戴着一幅眼镜。

  there are two pairs of shoes under the bed.   床下面有两双鞋。

  [注] pair 前面有时可以用指示代词this, that, these和those来修饰。    eg:

  that pair of trousers costs me 200 yuan.  那条裤子花了我200元。

3. room

  room 既可作可数名词，也可作不可数名词，作可数名词时指“房间”，作不可数名词时

指“空间”。    eg:

she’s in the next room.   她在隔壁房间。

there isn’t room to put the table.  没有空间放桌子。

4. receive

  receive 意为“接到，收到”，常指“（客观上）接到，收到”。accept意为“接受，接纳”，表示同意或愿意接受，常指“（主观上）接受”。    eg:

  he received a letter.  他接到了一封来信。

  she received the present, but she didn’t accept it.  她接到了礼物，但是没有接受它。

5. instead

  (2) instead of是介词短语，后可跟名词、代词、动名词，表示前者替代了后者，但两者必须是相同的成分。   eg:

     he will go instead of me.  他将替我去。

     we will visit the museum instead of going skating tomorrow.

     明天我们要去参观博物馆而不去滑冰。

6. rather then

  rather than.是连词，其前后所连的词性是一致的，意为“与其……不如……，不是……而

词语辨析

1. since & for

  since和for都可用于现在完成时和现在完成进行时中，表示一段时间，since既可接时间

既然我们是党员，我们就应该给别人做个好榜样。

2. maybe, perhaps, possibly & probably

  maybe, perhaps 和probably三个词都表示“可能”，都是副词。但maybe (=perhaps)是普通用语，常用于口语。perhaps表示“或许，大概”，是较正式用语。possibly 表示“大概，也许”，常与may, must连用，表示可能性小或不确切。probably (=most likely)表示“大概，也许”，可能性较大，比较肯定。  eg:

  —are you coming to the party?   你来参加舞会吗？

4. pay for, spend, take & cost

  pay for, spend, take和cost 都有“花费”的意思。但pay for和spend 的主语是人，而take的主语通常是形式主语it, cost的主语是物。常用句型为：sb pay some money for sth. sb spend some money (in) doing sth/ on sth. it takes sb some time to do sth. sth cost sb some money.  eg:

  he paid 20 yuan for the book.  买这本书他花了20元。

  he spent 100 yuan in buying the ticket/ on the ticket. 买这张票他花了100元。

  the t-shirt cost him 80 yuan. 这件t恤花了他80元。

句型

1. if you go to the party, you’ll have a great time. 如果你去参加聚会，你会玩得很开心的！

  if 意思是“如果，假如”，引导条件状语从句。在含有时间状语从句或条件状语从句的复合句中，如果主句是一般将来时态，从句应用一般现在时代替一般将来时。  eg:

  假如明天不下雨的话，我们就举行运动会。
