become的用法
1.用作連系動詞,其后可接名詞、形容詞、過去分詞等作表語:
He became a teacher at (the age of)17.他17歲就當了老師。
The weather became warmer.天氣變得暖和起來。
注意:其后接過去分詞時,可表示被動或結(jié)果;但表示被動時,其后一般不接by短語。比如不說:
Soon the room became crowded bystudents.
2.become是終止性動詞,因此要表示“成為…有多長時間”,英語不能將become與表示一段時間的詞或短語連用:
他成為老師有十年了。
正:He became a teacher ten years ago.
正:It’s ten years since he became a teacher.
誤:He has become a teacher for ten years.
3.become之后一般不接不定式表示“逐漸…”(此時可用come/begin+不定式):
正:He began [came] to like English.他開始喜歡英語起來。
誤:He became to like English.
正:He became ill yesterday.他昨天病了。
誤:He became to be ill yesterday.
4.用于習語becomeof,表示“發(fā)生”、“遭遇”等(常與what連用):
What has become of the girl?這個女孩后來怎樣了?
I don’t know what will become of me if I fail this time.要是我這次不成功,我不知我會怎么樣。
