一.climb:v.攀登, 爬, 上升 n.爬, 攀爬處

【詞義辨析】

1.ascend, climb, mount

這些動詞均含有“攀登，上升”之意。

ascend正式用詞，指不用手攀，一直上升直到相當高的地方。

climb普通用詞，含義廣泛，側重運用手足費力地攀登或上升，也可指抽象事物。

mount書面用詞，詞義與ascend相近，強調連續(xù)不斷地向上移動、攀登或上漲。指騎馬時用mount。

2.creep, climb, crawl

這些動詞都有“爬”之意。

creep多指人或四足動物匍匐爬行，尤指偷偷地或不出聲地緩慢向前爬行。也指植物的蔓延生長等。

climb通常指用手或足爬上或爬下，也指飛機、日、月的上升，還可用作比喻。

crawl指人或動物以身軀貼著地面緩慢地移動。

【例句用法】

The road climbs steeply for several miles.

這條路有幾英里向上傾斜得很陡。

We go to climb mountains every Sunday.

每個星期天我們都去爬山。

二.agree:v.同意, 贊成, 承認, 符合, 一致

【語法用法】

agree指“承認”時，后可接that從句。

I agree that the book is well worth reading.

不定式前通常加agree而不是accept。

I agreed to meet them here.

不用accept to do。

agree接不同介詞表示不同意思：

agree with指“同意”，后面接“人”或者“意見”。

I agree with you.

I agree with what you say.

agree to指“同意于”，后面接意為“提議”，“辦法”，“計劃”等的詞。

I agree to the proposal / arrangement.

agree on/upon指“(雙方)決定”。

They agree on/upon these terms.

agreed指“互相同意的”，作為不及物動詞的過去分詞時，可作形容詞，后可接that從句。

We are agreed that the meeting must be held not later than 8 August.

agree也可作為及物動詞的過去分詞。

We met at an agreed place at an agreed time.

agreed to do表示“在別人建議下同意做某事”，而agreed in doing表示“彼此間相互同意做某事”;

容易混淆意思的句子：

I agree that he call on me every Sunday.

我贊同他每星期曰來訪。

I agree that he calls on me every Sunday.

我承認他是每星期日來訪的。
