A：What're you learning about?你在学习什么呢？

B：Well. For instance, some words in a sentence are stressed.The time between two of these stressed words is always about the same. No matter how many words there are.This is what makes English sound jerky. First you go very fast, and then perhaps you slow up.嗯，例如，在一句话中的有些词是加重语气的,其中两个词间隔的时间总是几乎一样的。不论一句中有多少加重的词,这就使英语的音调显得不平稳。开始你说得很快，后来可能慢下来。

词语用法

词义讲解

常见错误

词源解说

v.(动词)

sentence的基本意思是“宣判,判决”,一般指法庭在审判之后决定和宣布对某人进行惩罚,用作及物动词,接名词或代词作宾语,还可接以动词不定式充当宾语补足语的复合宾语。

sentence常用于被动结构,并常与介词to连用。

sentence与for连用,意为“因…而判处”; 与to连用意为“判处…”。

n.(名词)

sentence的基本意思是“判决,宣判”,指的是由法官或执法者颁布的一道命令,旨在惩罚某些罪犯。

sentence还可指语法中的“句子”,一般由若干个单词组成,首字母要大写。作此解时是可数名词。

v.(动词)

sentence, condemn

这两个词的共同意思是“判处,宣判”。在表示“判处死刑”时,二者可通用; 在表示“判处…年徒刑”时,两者用法不同,用sentence时,年限在前,刑罚在后,用condemn时刑罚在前,年限在后。试比较:

她被判处8年徒刑。

She was sentenced to eight years' imprisonment.

She was condemned to imprisonment for eight years.

v.(动词)

法官判处这罪犯三年徒刑。

误 The judge sentenced the criminal for three years' imprisonment.

正 The judge sentenced the criminal to three years' imprisonment.

法官判处他盗窃罪徒刑5年。

误 The judge sentenced him for five years to theft.

正 The judge sentenced him for five years for theft.

析 sentence在表示“判多少年,判死刑”时,后面要跟介词to,不能跟介词for。表示“因…而判处”时跟介词for,不跟介词to。

n.(名词)

被判处死刑

误 under a sentence of death

正 under sentence of death

对…判刑

误 pass〔pronounce〕 the sentence on〔upon〕

正 pass〔pronounce〕 sentence on〔upon〕

析 在此类短语中,前不用冠词a或the。

☆ 13世纪晚期进入英语，直接源自古法语的sentence；*初源自古典拉丁语的sententia，意为思想，意思。
