Text:You didn't stay long last night.
解析:stay在該句子中是系動詞,所以后面接的是形容詞long,意思是呆得久一點。
Text:I had to wake up early for the conference call to Milan...
解析1:for在這里是介詞,表示“wake up early”的原因。
解析2:表示與某一國家的電話會議,call后面的介詞是to,不能用別的介詞。
Text:Well, we missed you at the party last night.
解析:miss有“錯過,未趕上”的意思,在這句話中是“沒看見”的意思。
Text:What happened, sale at the 99 cents store?
解析:這句話是說在99 cents store進行大甩賣的活動,所以地點the 99 cents store前的介詞要用at,不要用in。
Text:All they seem to care about is appearance.
解析:they seem to care about是定語從句修飾前面的先行詞all。這個all屬于不定代詞,指代人,在該句子中做的是謂語care about中的介詞about的賓語,那么在指代人的關(guān)系代詞that和who中只能用that,不能用who。由于all是做賓語,所以這個關(guān)系代詞省略了。
