词语用法

词义讲解

常见错误

词源解说

v.(动词)

turn的基本意思是“旋转,转动”,指做圆周运动或弧形运动。引申可作“翻转”“开始涨或落”“瞄准,指向”“使…向某方向走”“达到,超过”“表演”“(使)变酸”“(使)不适,作呕,恶心”“翻译”“赶走”“考虑”“用车床加工,车削”等解。作“改变”解时,指彻底改变,以至面目全非,且常用于朝坏的方向改变。

turn可用作及物动词,也可用作不及物动词。用作及物动词时,可接名词或代词作宾语,也可接以形容词充当补足语的复合宾语。

turn还可用作系动词,意为“成为,变成”,后接名词或形容词作表语,用作表语的名词须用零冠词。

turn后接副词away表示“离开,走开,把…打发走”; 后接副词back表示“折回,返回”; 后接副词down表示“拒绝接受某人〔某事〕”; 后接副词in表示“睡觉,转身进入,拐入”“把某物上交,把某物交出”; 后接副词off表示“关(自来水、电源、煤气等)”; 后接副词over表示“翻身,将…翻身”; 后接副词out表示“结果是…,证明是…”“撵出”“生产”; 后接副词up表示“出现,出席,到达”“发现”。

n.(名词)

turn用作名词的基本意思是“转动,旋转”,指使某人或某物转动的行为或某物自己旋转的动作,是可数名词。

turn也可表示“方向的改变,转折,转折点”“转弯处”,引申可作“时间上的转折点,交替时期”解,是可数名词。

turn也可作“轮到的机会,顺次”解,通常用于单数形式。

turn还可作“发展变化,新趋势”“散步”“短小节目”“风格,性格,性情,习性”等解,是可数名词,常与不定冠词a连用。

在口语里, turn可表示“惊吓,震惊”“不适,疾病的发作”,作“惊吓,震惊”解时,通常用作单数形式。

v.(动词)

turn, alter, become, change, convert, modify, vary

这组词的共同意思是“改变”“变化”。change和alter有时可以互换。例如:

Whatever we do, we can't change〔alter〕 the facts.不管我们做什么,我们总不能改变事实。

He has changed〔altered〕 a lot since I last saw him.自从上次见面到现在,他变了很多。

The weather changes〔alters〕 almost daily.天气差不多天天在变。

其区别是：

1.change在这几个词中是*普遍、*不正式的一个,可用于任何变化的过程,而不论变化的性质和程度; alter指*部的、表面的、轻微的“改变”“改动”,修改后仍基本上保持原状; alter和convert都指形式和用途上的*部微小改变; turn指彻底改变,以至面目全非,且常用于朝坏的方向改变; modify指限定在一定范围内的修改或修饰,以使之更完美; vary则指事物或其一部分暂时地或反复地变化,从而使事物各部分呈现不同外貌和特点。例如:

When matter changes to a substance different from what it was, the change is a chemical change.当物质变成和原来不同的物质时,这种变化是化学变化。

The plan is O.K. at large, but I suggest it be altered.该计划总的来说是可以的,但我建议做进一步修改。

Pressure varies directly with temperature and inversely with volume.压力随温度成正比例变化,与容积成反比例变化。

All the bank bill was converted into cash.所有的银行票据都兑换成了现金。

Those who were once for him have turned against him.那些原来支持他的人现在转而反对他。

The newspaper turned against the president.该报转而攻击总统。

After he left the university, he became a teacher, but he later turned to translation.他大学毕业后当了教师,但后来转向翻译工作。

2.convert可指改变信仰,尤其是宗教信仰; modify指态度变温和。例如:

He has converted from Buddhism to Catholicism.他已放弃佛教改信天主教了。

You'd better modify your tone.你*好缓和一下你的口气。

He will have to modify his views if he wants to be elected.他如果想当选,就得把观点变得明朗些。

n.(名词)

turn, become, come, go, grow

这组词均可用作系动词,表示“变成”。其区别是：

1.come多指向好的方向转变; go往往指向坏的方面转变; become指向好的(也可指向坏的)方面发展, turn是正式用语,指向好的,也指向坏的方面转变。试比较:

When did that style of dress come into fashion?

那种式样的衣服是什么时候时兴的?

When did that style of dress go out of fashion?

那种式样的衣服是什么时候不时兴的?

2.come的主语往往是人; become的主语可以是人或物; 而go的主语多是物。

3.come的表语通常是形容词; become的表语可以是形容词、代词或名词(须加不定冠词); go和grow的表语为形容词; turn的表语可以是形容词或名词(不加不定冠词)。

v.(动词)

这个年轻的女子成了音乐家。

误 The young woman turned a musician.

正 The young woman turned musician.

正 The young woman became a musician.

析 turn后接名词作表语时,名词前不用任何冠词,即使主语是复数,名词也不用复数。而become后接名词时,名词前要有冠词,或可以用复数形式。

误 Her face turned to white at the news.

正 Her face turned white at the news.

误 His hair turned to grey fast.

正 His hair turned grey fast.

析 turn to表示“朝…方向转动”; 而turn作“向…转变”解用作系动词时,其后直接跟形容词作表语。

正 He turned fifty on his last birthday.

误 She has not yet turned to sixteen.

正 She has not yet turned sixteen.

误 It has turned to ten o'clock.

析 turn 用在年龄和时间方面表示“(年龄)刚过…”“(时间)已到…”时,是及物动词,其后直接加宾语。

正 He turned a deaf ear to our request for help.

析 “充耳不闻”“置之不理”可以说 turn a deaf ear to,介词 to 不可改为about。

正 He turned round to find a policeman eyeing him suspiciously.

析 turn back意为“返回”“走回原地”; “转身”“扭过头来”可以说turn round。

正 Be sure to turn off the light when you leave the room.

误 Would you please turn off the radio a little?The baby is sleeping.

正 Would you please turn down the radio a little?The baby is sleeping.

析 turn down意为“把(收音机音量等)开小”“把(声音)放低”; “关上(收音机、电灯,水龙头等)”用turn off。

正 They always turn to me when they are in trouble.

误 Bob turned a blind eye at the “No Fishing” sign.

正 Bob turned a blind eye to/on the “No Fishing” sign.

析 “对…视而不见”“故意不理会”可以用 turn a blind eye to/on sth,这里介词 to 或 on 不可以换作 at。

误 The robbers had turned the room inside out.

正 The robbers had turned the room upside down.

析 turn sth inside out意为“把里面的东西翻出来”“彻底搜查”; 表示“翻转”“倒放”“彻底弄乱”时可以说turn sth upside down。

误 The square looks more splendid with all the lights turning on.

正 The square looks more splendid with all the lights turned on.

析 with短语在句中作伴随状语, turn on有被动意义,因此用过去分词短语。

误 Turn over your trousers legs and they won't get wet.

正 Turn up your trousers legs and they won't get wet.

析 turn over意为“翻转”,而“卷起”用turn up。

n.(名词)

那瓶盖一拧就开。

误 The cap of the bottle opened with a turn.

正 The cap of the bottle opened at a turn.

析 turn与动作名词搭配表示“一次性动作”,常用介词at而不用with。

正 When you reach the end of this road, take a turn to the left.

误 His condition took the turn for the worse during the night.

正 His condition took a turn for the worse during the night.

正 They got on the bus in turn.

误 They spoke by turns at the meeting.

正 They spoke in turn at the meeting.

析 by turns是“交替”“轮流”的意思,多指两个人或两个行为之间的交替进行; 如表示“按顺序”则应该用in turn。

误 At night we watched at his bedside by turn.

正 At night we watched at his bedside by turns.

误 We took turn at nursing the sick child.

正 We took turns at nursing the sick child.

析 turn在by turns和take turns等短语中,习惯用复数。

☆ 直接源自古英语的turnian，意为旋转；*初源自古法语的torner，意为转动。
