讓我們來總結present用法吧~~
大家熟知的“禮物”含義(名詞),如L65、L85;
除了解釋為“禮物”,也可用作“現(xiàn)在,目前”(名詞),如L13課中的at present,就是現(xiàn)在進行時的時間標志詞;
除了名詞詞性外,還可以搖身一變,變?yōu)樾稳菰~。如L76、L89課的第二句課文原句,此處的詞性是形容詞,解釋為“現(xiàn)在的,出席的”;
細心的你是不是發(fā)現(xiàn),在L89和L93課中,present繼續(xù)“變身”成為了動詞,此時大家需要注意,該詞的讀音也發(fā)生了變化,
讀作[priˈzent],解釋為“贈與,贈送”。
看了這么多,我們也來動動口,讀一讀關于“present”的繞口令:
At present the presenter presenting the present is present.
