中考英语词组辨析:at/beside/by/near
来源 :中华考试网 2016-02-26
中Ⅰ. at “靠近”往往动作联系,意味着有目的、有意识的靠近,而by, beside, near只意味着就“靠近”而言。如:
① He sat at the desk. He wanted to read, 他坐到桌边,想看书。
Ⅱ. beside “在……旁边”;by = just at the side of “就在旁边”。两者一般可通用。但by 比beside语势较强些,并多用于日常用语中。如:
① There is a hospital beside / by the river. 河边有一家医院。
[注]:指“在某人身边”时,常多用beside. Eg:
① The little boy is standing beside his mother.
Ⅲ. near “在……附近”或“离……不远”,它表示的距离要比by / beside 来得远些。如:
① We live near the sea.我们住在海边。(表离海边有些距离)
② We live by / beside the sea.我们就住在海边。(表海就在身边)。
