重点讲解
一.contact:n.接触, 联系, 熟人 v.(与)联系, (与)接触 adj.接触的
【语法用法】
contact作名词时,既可作单数,也可作复数。英国人习惯用其单数形式,而美国人则习惯用其复数形式,表示“联系”的意思。
I have had many contacts with my friends.
contact作动词时,指“与……联系”。
During my stay in the city I contacted several teachers.
表示“开始与某人接触”时,可以用以下来两种表达方式:come into contact with和come in contact with。前者比后者使用更频繁;
make contact with 表示“与某人进行接触”;
contact的几个注意点:
有时可指“被联系的人”。
I have got this information from one of my contacts, who used to live overseas.
contact还常有“跟(无线电台)通信”或“跟……交战”的意思。
【错句举例与错句分析】
错句: The painter lived more than a decade in Europe, where he could have contact with other cubists.
订正: The painter lived more than a decade in Europe, where he could be in contact with other cubists.

分析: 表示“与人接触”时,常用 be in contact with。
【词义辨析】
1.contact, touch
这两个动词均有“接触”之意。
contact强调紧密接触的两个物体之间的相互关系。也可用作比喻。
touch指具体意义“接触”时,强调动作;表抽象意义时,侧重“联系”。
2.meet, encounter, confront, face, contact
这些动词均有“遇见、会见、碰见”之意。
meet普通用词,本义指双方或多方从不同方向或相反方向作相对运动,最终相碰(遇)。
encounter通常指遇到困难或挫折,也指偶然或意外地相遇。
confront 不可避免地,面对面地相遇,也指敢于正视困难或问题。
face侧重双方静止地面对面,或指充满勇气、信心和决心去正视人或事。
contact多指通过书信、电话或直接会面和别人联系,口语用词。
【例句用法】
The switches close the contacts and complete the circuit.
这些开关可使接触器接通电流形成回路。
I have a useful contact in New York.
我在纽约有个有用的人可以联系。
二.speak ill of:诋毁;说…的坏话
e.g.:I never heard you speak ill of a human being in my life.

剧情介绍:
这个看起来和蔼可亲的教授似乎对Henry先生的事情格外关心,是真的出于与Henry父亲的私交,还是另有隐情呢?大名鼎鼎的Sherlock和John不管走到哪里都能有忠实的粉丝,这也算是个办好事情的有利条件了。
