every的用法说明
1. 表示“每(个)”,其后通常接单数可数名词。如:
I go there every day. 我每天去那儿。
I believe every work he says. 我相信他说的每一句话。
注意以下两种情况:
(1) every 通常不能用于复数名词前,但若复数名词前有基数词或few 的修饰,则也可用 every 修饰,表示“每(隔)……”。如:
We go there every three days. 我们每三天(每隔两天)去那儿一次。
(2) every 通常不能用于不可数名词前,但在少数情况下,它可用于抽象名词前,表示“所有可能的”“充分的”“完全的”等。如:
We have every reason to do so. 我们有充分的理由这样做。
I wish you both every happiness. 祝你们俩位幸福美满。
2. every 指的是三个或三个以上的“每个”,不能指两者中的每个。如:
路的两边都种有树。
误:There are trees on every side of the road.
正:There are trees on each side of the road.
3. 并列的“every+名词”结构用作主语时,谓语要用单数。如:
Every boy and (every) girl has read the story. 每个男孩女孩都读过这个故事。
4. 与 not 连用通常构成部分否定。如:
Every student doesn’t like it. 并非每个学生都喜欢它。
Every man is not perfect. 并非每个人都是十全十美的。
2.Or, you can cut off the whole plant. Leave about two or three centimeters above the ground so the plant will re-grow.
cut off剪〔切, 砍〕下
例句:Kehr cut off some flowers from the bush.
凯尔从树丛中剪下一些花。
The rebels cut off the heads of their captives.
叛乱者砍掉了俘虏的脑袋。
3.Remove the paper when the seedlings have grown up far enough to touch it.
grow up长大, 成熟
例句:Tom wants to be a coach when he grows up.
汤姆长大后想当教练。
Jane grows up a tall woman.
简长成一个高个子姑娘。
