[特征]

[备考必背] 辨析affect和influence
affect指的是受到具体事物的影响;influence指的是抽象的影响,经常指的是态度、行为和思想等方面的影响。
- The entire country was affected by drought. 整个国家干旱肆虐。

- The firm could not afford to pay such large salaries. 公司无法支付如此巨额的工资。
[考点]
afford常常接在一些助动词后面,如:can,could,be able to等。afford后面所跟动词的形式经常是afford to do sth.,可以直接跟名次,但是很少用于被动语态。
- I can't afford so much money for the new car. 我付不起这么多钱买辆新车。
(×)A car can be afforded by most people.
(√)Most people can afford a car. 大多数人都能买得起汽车。
[贴心叮咛]
afford这个单词非常重要,也经常考,但它的考点并不多。

afraid  adj.  害怕;担心;恐怕
[考点] 重要句型
afraid只能作表语,不能作定语,也就是只能用在be afraid of/to do/that这样的句型中。
be afraid of sth./sb./doing sth.  害怕某事/害怕某人/害怕坐某事
- The little boy was afraid of rats. 这个小男孩害怕老鼠。
- She was afraid of her teacher very much. 她很怕她的老师。
- She was afraid of waking her mother up. 她生怕把她妈妈吵醒了。
be afraid to do sth. 害怕/不敢做某事
- She is afraid to make a mistake any more. 她不敢再犯错误了。
be afraid +从句 恐怕/怕……(意思常相当于I'm sorry, but ...表示委婉的回绝。)

[练习与解答]
— Go for a picnic this weekend, OK?
—                 . I love getting close to nature. [2004 福建] 
A. I couldn't agree more        B. I'm afraid not
C. I believe not                      D. I don't think so
答案:A (“这个周末去野餐,好吗?”“再好不过了。我喜欢亲近自然。”本题考查的是交际用语。I couldn't agree more是“再好不过了(表示同意 )”;I'm afraid not是“我恐怕不能”; I believe not 和I don't think so表示“我不认为这样”。)
[贴心叮咛]
afraid非常重要,要熟练掌握上面的考点。 

afterward(s)  adv.   然后,后来地
[特征]
afterwards是英国的用法,美国人更多的是用afterward,这两个词意思一样。

[备考必背] 辨析afterwards和later
这两个词有时可以互换。但later可以和具体的时间连用,而afterwards不能。
