◆another pron. & adj.
1. another 由 an+ other 构成,但总是写成一个词,不能写成an other;其后一般只接单数可数名词,不接复数名词或不可数名词。如:
正: another boy (day) 另外一个男孩(一天)
误: another boys (days, news, advice)
2. 在通常情况下,another 后不能接复数名词或不可数名词,但是若复数名词之前有 few 或数词修饰,或不可数名词之前有 piece of 之类的单位词时等,则可以与 another 连用。如:
In another two weeks it’ll be finished. 再过两个星期就可做完了。
I have another good piece of news for you. 我还有一条好消息要告诉你。
3. another 表示“另外一个”,通常是泛指(而非特指)另外一个或指不确定数目的另外一个。如:
Give me another (one). 另外给我一个。
He finished his cake and asked for another (one). 他吃光了他那块蛋糕后又要了一块。
注:若是特指两者中的另一个,则用 the other。如:
Shut the other eye, please. 请把另一只眼睛也闭上。
◆answer v. & n.
1. 用作动词,除表示“回答”、“答复”外,还可表示“接 (电话)”或对门铃等声响作出反应等(常与 telephone, door, bell, door-bell 等连用)。如:
Who answered the telephone? 谁接的电话?
A little girl answered the door. 一个小女孩应声去开门。
Nobody answered my call for help. 没有人理会我的呼救。
2. 用作名词,表示“回答”、“答复”、“答案”等,注意以下各例中 answer 后接的介词是 to 而不是 of:
What was the answer to question 4? 问题四是怎么答的?
Have you had an answer to your letter? 你的信有回音没有?
用于短语 in answer to(作为回应)。如:
He came at once in answer to my phone call. 他一接到我的电话就来了。
