  • 词义辨析

    sometimes, sometime, some time

    这三者的区别是:sometimes的意思是“有时,间或”,指某事在某些场合会发生,并非在一切场合都发生; sometime指过去或将来的某一未知时间或某一尚未确定的时间点; some time则是名词短语,指时间段,意思是“一些时间”“某个时段”。例如:
    People held in high repute are sometimes quite ignorant.名气大的人有时却非常无知。
    Let's have dinner together sometime next week.下周找个时间我们一起吃顿饭吧。
    I'll be away for some time.我要离开一段时间。

    sometimes, always, often, usually

    这四个词意思相近。它们的区别是:
    1.表示的频率不同。例如:
    He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday,Friday,Saturday and even on Sunday.我们可说:He always goes to school.always表示的频率是100%。
    He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday and Friday.我们可说:He usually goes to school.usually表示的频率是90%。
    He comes to school on Monday,Tuesday,Wednesday and Thursday.我们可说:He often goes to school.often表示的频率是60%。
    He comes to school on Monday and Thursday.我们可以说He sometimes goes to school.sometimes表示的频率是20%。
    2.always的反义词是never; often的反义词是seldom; usually的反义词是occasionally, sometimes的反义词是always。

    sometimes,sometime,some time

    这一组词都是与时间相关的副词。
    sometimes是个频度副词,意为“有时”,表示动作发生的不经常性,常与一般现在时或一般过去时连用。
    sometime是个副词,意为“某时”,指时间上不确定的某一点,常用于过去时或将来时。
    some time是个名词短语,意思是“一段时间”,在句中常与for,take等词连用。
