咬文嚼字

Text:You didn't stay long last night.

解析:stay在该句子中是系动词,所以后面接的是形容词long,意思是呆得久一点

Text:I had to wake up early for the conference call to Milan...

解析1:for在这里是介词,表示“wake up early”的原因。

解析2:表示与某一国家的电话会议,call后面的介词是to,不能用别的介词。

Text:Well, we missed you at the party last night.

解析:miss有“错过,未赶上”的意思,在这句话中是“没看见”的意思。

Text:What happened, sale at the 99 cents store?

解析:这句话是说在99 cents store进行大甩卖的活动,所以地点the 99 cents store前的介词要用at,不要用in。

Text:All they seem to care about is appearance.

解析:they seem to care about是定语从句修饰前面的先行词all。这个all属于不定代词,指代人,在该句子中做的是谓语care about中的介词about的宾语,那么在指代人的关系代词that和who中只能用that,不能用who。由于all是做宾语,所以这个关系代词省略了。
