雅思口语万能词—— ☆ DO

6.吃过饭通常我都会帮妈妈清洗盘子。I always help my mother to do the dishes after dinner.
DO这个单词是我们在初中或者小学的时候最早接触和掌握的单词之一,但是对于它的理解却只是停留在皮毛而已。在印象中,DO的含义是“做,干”。与之相比较,在上述的6个例句中,它的含义却拓展为:执行、履行、犯、扮演、模仿和清洗。为什么我们的理解和它真实的含义或者实际用法之间存在如此显著的区别呢?这也充分证明了我们之前的学习和理解上可能存在偏差。DO到底可以表现怎样的一个过程呢?通俗来说,任何的一个主体(包括国家、机构或者个人)赋予或者安排一个任务给第二个主体,第二个主体把这个任务完成的过程就是DO。黑社会的老大交给小混混一个任务,小混混完成了,这个就是DO(犯罪);妈妈让儿子去洗碗,儿子去洗了,这个过程也是DO(清洗)。

9.今天太冷了,要多穿一点,否则,你会患上流感的。It is too cold today, you should wear more, otherwise you would probably get the flu.
GET, 我们使用最多的含义是得到和获取,但是,和DO一样,它可以理解成为一个过程,那就是空间上两个分开的物体,从有距离变得零距离接触的过程。拿第一个例子来分析一下,吉姆收到一封来自美国的邮件,本来邮件在美国,吉姆在中国,空间上存在很大的距离。邮件从美国寄出来送到吉姆的手中,空间上变为零距离,而这个过程就是GET。

和GET的含义很相似,也极容易混淆,TAKE也可以理解为物体在空间内运动。不同的是,GET表示两个物体做相向运动,最终靠近、接触。而TAKE表示的含义为:两个物体在相互依靠或者距离比较近的情况下同步运动。乘车,也就是车体和乘客同步运动。吃药的结果也是药片和服药的人一起运动。其他的情况差不多。

雅思口语万能词——☆MAKE

MAKE的含义也很容易理解,尽管我们最初接触的意思是制作,但是,从广义的角度去理解,应该指一个事物从无到有的过程。因此,只做蛋糕可以用 MAKE;组建乐队还是可以用MAKE;沏茶可以用MAKE;砌墙还是可以用MAKE。因为他们所表达的都是一个事物从没有到最终存在的过程。
