e.g. If anything happens to him, let me know.
happen to do (be, be doing ) 偶爾(碰巧)在做…
e.g. He happened to be out then.
注意: happen 作 “發生”講時是不及物動詞,不能用于被動語態,其過去分詞不能用作形容詞. The accident was happened last night.(F)
The accident happened last night.
happen, take place, occur都表示 “發生”,都不能用于被動語態.
1). happen 指事情的發生,往往帶有 “偶然”或 “未能預見”的意思.
2). take place 指事先布置或策劃好而后發生,沒有 “偶然”意味.有時有 “舉行”的意思.
e.g. Great changes have taken place in our school.
When will the football match take place?
3). occur 當主體指具體或確實發生的事件時, occur可與happen換用.但在表示否定時最好用occur.
e.g. The accident happened (occurred) yesterday.
注: occur 表示 “想起,產生”時,不可與happen互換.
e.g. It occurred to me that I had forgot to bring money.
2. It really hurts.
hurt, injure, wound 這三個詞都表示 “使…受傷”. 作及物動詞, 在表達 “受傷”時,一定要用被動語態.
e.g.他受傷很嚴重.
He badly hurt (injured, wounded ). (F)
He was badly hurt (injured, wounded).
1). hurt “傷” 可以指精神上的或肉體上的 “傷害”, 含較強的 “疼痛” 意味, 通常與badly, slightly, seriously 等連用,表示受傷的程度.
e.g. He fell and hurt his arm. 他摔了一跤,摔壞了胳膊.
2). injure “傷” (=hurt). 指在意外事故或事件中, “負傷, 受傷害”.
e.g. He was injured in a fire. 他在一場火災中受傷.
3). wound “傷”指用外界暴力引起身體 “創傷”, 尤指刀傷, 槍傷, 劍傷等.
e.g. The bullet wounded him in the left leg. 子彈打傷了他的左腳.
用法上的區別:
1). 身體內部的受傷不能用 wound
e.g. His internal organs were injured/hurt .(不能用wound)
他的內部器官受傷了.
2). injure, wound 的過去分詞可以作定語; hurt的過去分詞不能.
e.g.他受傷很嚴重.
I saw an injured (a wounded) man.
I saw a hurt man.(F)
3). hurt 可作不及物動詞, 表示 “疼”, “難受”. 其他兩個詞不能.
e.g. My left foot hurts. 我左腳疼.(可能是鞋夾腳的原因,不一定是傷)
3. It was a bit green.
a bit 一點點,有點 a bit of +不可數名詞
a bit of salt= a little salt
a bit hungry (angry) 有點餓(生氣)
e.g. I’m not a bit hungry. 我一點也不餓.
I’m not a little hungry. 我很餓了.
not a bit = not at all 一點也不
not a little= very 很,非常
4.Was the peach ripe or green?
桃子是成熟的還是生的？
句子中的green作“沒有成熟的”解，是ripe（成熟的）的反義詞。
e.g. Green fruit is not good to eat.
The cherries(櫻桃)are still too green to pick.
表示常用顏色的形容詞往往可以引申出與顏色有關聯
的其它意思：
red（暴力的，流血的 ） black（邪惡的，不吉利的）
yellow（膽怯，靠不住的） blue（沮喪） white（幸運的，吉利的）
e.g. a red battle血戰
I always knew you were yellow! 我早就知道你膽小怕事。
He looks blue. 他看上去情緒低落。
Things look black.
5. And I advise you not to eat fruit that isn’t ripe in the future.
我勸你以后不要吃不成熟的水果。
1）advise作“勸”、“建議”解，常用于下面兩種結構：

e.g. The doctor advised me to take more exercise.
醫生建議我多做運動。
He strongly advised me not to do so.
他堅決勸我不要那樣做。
（2）后面可以跟that引導的賓語從句，從句用虛擬語氣should do, should可以省略，即advise sb that sb (should) do sth.
e.g. I advised him that he should attend the meeting.
我勸他參加這次會議。
The teacher advised us that we read more books about English literature.
老師建議我們多讀些英國文學方面的書。
Advise sth. 建議某事
~sb. (not )to do sth 勸告某人
~doing sth. 建議做某事
~sb+疑問詞+不定式 建議某人怎么樣
~(sb.) that +主+(should) do sth 建議某人應該做某事

解析: prefer 與題意不合; hope to do sth/wish sb. to do sth. ; suggest (sb.) doing sth.
另注: advise sb. to do sth. “勸說某人做某事”但不一定勸說成功.
advise (v.) →advice (un.)
give (some) advice on sth/how to do…;
