a bit 和 a little 的联系与区别

a bit 和 a little 均译为"一点儿",都可用作程度状语,修饰形容词,副词或动词.二者可换用.如:

I feel a bit / little cold. 我觉得有点冷
My mother is a  bit / little better today.我妈妈今天好些了.
She calmed down a little / bit.她冷静了一些.

a little可直接修饰名词,a bit 则不能,修饰名词时需与of搭配使用.如:

He knows a little English.他懂得一点英语.
Let's have a bit of music.我们听点音乐吧.

在否定句中,not a bit和not a little 的意思完全不同.not a bit得意思是"一点也不","not a little" 的意思是"很;非常地".试比较:

I'm not a bit cold.我一点也不冷.
I'm not a little cold.我很冷.

hehuhu

hehuhu

I'm not a little cold.我很冷.
双重否定表肯定的意思，应该这样理解，对吧？

这两个词均有"关于"的含义,但侧重点不一样.on侧重于学术性,有"论及"的意思,与从事专门研究有关;而about则不那么正式,它的内容较为普通.如:

This is a textbook o American history.这是一本关于美国历史的教科书.

This is a book for children about Africa.这是一本供儿童阅读的有关非洲的书.

Professor Smith made a speech on international affairs yesterday.昨天史密斯教授作了一次关于国际形式的演讲.

DZ

这四个词用来表示方位.其中above与below是一对意义相反的词,over与under是一对意义相反的词.above表示"在...的上方,高于...",包括"在...的正上方"这一含义.而over只能表示"在...的正上方".如:

We were flying above the clouds.我们正在云层上飞行.(飞行高度高于云层)

His overcoat reaches just below his knees.他的大衣刚及膝下.

Attendants held a large umbrella over/above the chief's head.随从们把一把大伞撑在首领的头上.

The cat was under the table.猫在桌子的下面.

注:如果over表示"部分或全部盖着"这一意思时,仍可译为"在...上面",但这时不能用above来替换.如:

He spread his handkerchief over his face to keep the files off.他把手帕盖在脸上,以挡住苍蝇.

Spread a cloth over the table.把一块布盖在桌子上.

DZ

absent为形容词.这两个词组均可表示"不在(某地),不在...里",后跟地点名词.不同的是absent  from的主语可为有生命的名词,也可为无生命的名词,而absent  in的主语只能是无生命的名词.此处absent  in为活用搭配.如:

1.I was absent from Wuhan last year.去年我不在武汉.
2.Snow is absent in some countries.有些国家从不下雪.
3.The idiom is absent in/from the book.这本书中没有这个词.

absent from还可表示"缺席"之意,后常跟class,school,meeting,work之类的名词.如:
Why were you absent from school yesterday?你昨天为什么没来上学?

absent in还可作"外出在(某地)"讲.此时,主语只能为有生命的名词.如:
My father is absent in Europe.我父亲现在外出在欧洲.

DZ

这两个词都有"收到,接收"之意,均用作动词.区别在于accept指"(愿意)接受",而receive强调"收到,接收"这一事实,与意愿无关.如:
I can't accept your gift.我不能接受你的礼物.
I received a letter from a stranger.我收到一个陌生人的信.

  accept 还可作"相信;承认或承担...得责任"讲.如:
I can accept your reasons for being late.我相信你们所说的迟到的理由.

receive 还可以有"遭到,遭受;接待;容纳"等意思.如:
He received a heavy blow on the head from a falling stone.一块落下的石头重重地打在他的头上.
