Sometimes they ______ (keep) them. He ______ (lose) many CDs in this way.

 

Special difficulties 难点

 

英语中有些动词可以带两个宾语,这些动词大多具有“给与”的含义。如课文中第3行的句子“He lent me a book”中,动词lent后面带有表示动作结果的直接宾语(a book)和表示动作目标的间接宾语(me)。间接宾语在大多数情况下置于直接宾语之前,如果间接宾语在后,间接宾语前必须加“to”(表示动作对什么人而做)或“for”(表示动作为什么人而做),因此,课文中的句子也可以改写成:He lent a book to me. 注意以下例句。

Instead of saying:  We can say:

除了这种表述方法外:      还可以说:

He lent me a book.                  He lent a book to me.

He sent me a card.                  He sent a card to me.

He passed me the salt.             He passed the salt to me.

She bought me a tie.               She bought a tie for me.

She made me a cake.              She made a cake for me.
