短語動詞

　　I. 要點

　　英語中有許多短語動詞在意義上是一個整體，其用法有的相當于及物動詞，有的相當于不及物動詞，有的兼有及物動詞和不及物動詞的特征。英語短語動詞的構成主要有以下六種：

　　(1) 動詞+介詞

　　常見的有l(wèi)ook for, look after, send for, care about, ask for, laugh at, hear of (from), add to, lead to等。這類短語動詞的賓語只能放在介詞后。如：

　　Don't laugh at others.

　　I didn't care about it.

　　(2) 動詞+副詞

　　常見的有give up, pick up, think over, find out, hand in, point out等。這類短語動詞的賓語如果是名詞，既可放在副詞前邊，又可放在副詞后邊;賓語如果是人稱代詞或反身代詞，則要放在副詞前邊。如：You'll hand in your homework tomorrow.

　　Please don't forget to hand it in.

　　(3) 動詞+副詞+介詞

　　常見的有l(wèi)ook down upon, go on with, break away from, add up to, catch up with等。這類短語動詞的賓語只能放在介詞后邊。如：

　　All his money added up to no more than $100.

　　After a short rest, he went on with his research work.

　　(4) 動詞+名詞+介詞

　　常見的有take care of, make use of, pay attention to, make fun of 等。這類短語動詞的賓語只能放在介詞后邊。如：You should pay attention to your handwriting.

　　We should make full use of our time.

　　(5) 動詞+形容詞

　　常見的有l(wèi)eave open, set free, cut open等。這類短語動詞的賓語如果是名詞，則賓語可放在形容詞的前邊，也可放在后邊;賓語如果是人稱代詞或反身代詞，則必須放在形容詞前邊。如：

　　The prisoners were set free.

　　He cut it open.

　　(6) 動詞+名詞

　　常見的有take place, make friends等。這類短語動詞用作不及物動詞。如：

　　This story took place three years ago.

　　I make friends with a lot of people.

　　(7)辨析

　　give away(讓給，暴露) 和 give up(放棄，停止)

　　put away(放起，收起) 和 put out (撲滅)

　　turn up(出席，放大) 和 turn on (打開)

　　keep out(阻止) 和 keep off (不讓靠近)

　　make up(編造，補上) 和 make out(辨認)

　　take off(脫，起飛) 和 take out(拿出)
