初中英语常用短语复习注意事项1.初中英语教材中共出现近500个词组，其中有一部分为常用词组，要求能熟练运用。2.在学习中，要注意词组的积累，特别要注意介词短语和动词短语的积累。3.对固定词组的意义，切不可望文生义。例如，动词look愿意为“看”，但look after意为“照料”，look up (a word in a dictionary)意为“(在词典中)查找(单词)”。4.要十分注意固定词组中冠词的使用。有时冠词可引起词义的变化，例如，go to school意为“上学”，而go to the school意为“到学校里去”；take place意为“发生”，而take the place意为“取代”。有些词组中须用冠词，而另一些则不用。例如，in the evening, at night。一、动词短语、介词短语和其他短语 (一)由be构成的短语，注意与介词搭配。 1)be able/unable to do sth.能够/不能做某事 2)be afraid of (to do sth./that) 害怕(不敢做恐怕)3)be angry with sb. （for sth.）(因为某事)生(某人)的气4)be a good influence in sb./sth. 对某人(某方面)产生好的影响 5)be good/bad for 对有益/有害 6)be good /bad at 擅长/不擅长 7)be weak in 在.方面处于弱势8)be busy doing (with) 忙于做(忙于)9)be born 出生10)be back/in/out 回来/在家/外出11)be at home/work 在家/上班12)be confident of 对有信心 13)be careful of 当心，注意，仔细 14)be covered with 被复盖15)be famous for sth. /as+身份 以而著名16) be familiar/unfamiliar to对感到熟悉/不熟悉（陌生）17)be free 空闲的，有空18)be from 来自，什么地方人19)be glad to do sth. 很高兴做20)be kind to sb.=be friendly to sb.对友好21)be interested in 对感兴趣22)be in agreement （with sb./on sth.）达成一致意见23)be in trouble 处于困境中24)be made of (from) 由制成25)be late for sth. 迟到26)be on 在进行，在上演,（灯）亮着27)be pleased (with)=be satisfied with sb./about sth.对感到高兴(满意)28）be similar to=take after 与.相像29)be (ill) in bed 卧病在床30)be ready for 为作好准备31)be surprised (at) 对感到惊讶32)be supposed to do sth. 理应做某事33)be strict in sth.
