词语用法
n.(名词)
city是可数名词,意思是“城市,都市,市”,多指较大或重要的城市。在美国,人口在8000人以上的都可称为city。 city也可表示“全市居民,全城居民”,作此解时是集合名词,常用作单数,可与单数或复数动词连用。 the City的意思是“伦敦商业区,伦敦城”。 “进城”可说go to the city,也可说go to town。注意town前无冠词。
常见错误
n.(名词)
- 杭州是一个富有吸引力的旅游城市。
误 Hangzhou is an attractive city of tourism.
正 Hangzhou is an attractive city for tourists.
正 Hangzhou is an attractive tourist city.
析 “旅游城市”可说tourist city或city for tourists,不可说city of tourism。
我从未到过该市。误 I've never been to the City.
正 I've never been to the city.
析 the City特指伦敦商业区。
