2011成人英語三級復(fù)習(xí)輔導(dǎo):三合一慣用語
    除了片語動詞、動詞短語等之外,這里要介紹一種三位一體的詞組,我把它們命名為“三合一慣用語”,由名詞+名詞、動詞+動詞、形容詞+形容詞以及副詞+副詞合組而成。有時兩個詞之間不用“ and”而用“or”。三合一慣用語數(shù)目不算多,但已漸漸在增長中,相當(dāng)配合時尚,可以多加留意,盡量學(xué)用。
    下面是些常見的例子:
    ㈠ 名詞+名詞
    ● rules and regulations(各種條例)
    “One should pay attention to all the rules and regulations of a working place.”
    ● law and order(法律秩序;法紀)
    “The police‘s job is to maintain law and order of a country.”
    ● facts and figures(事實和數(shù)字)
    “Traditional teaching tends to cram students with facts and figures for memorisation and regurigitation.”
    ● do’s and dont‘s (應(yīng)注意的事項)
    “Try to be familiar with the do’s and dont‘s of an organisation.”
    ● merits and demerits(優(yōu)缺點)
    “To evaluate a system, one has to take into account both its merits and demerits.”
    ● bag and baggage(連同全部財物)
    “The rascal was turned out of the room bag and baggage.”
    ● pros and cons(贊成和反對的理由)
    “It is important to consider the pros and cons of a matter before coming to a decision.”
    ● doom and gloom(失望與不快)
    “All the reports on world economy are full of doom and gloom.”
    ● ways and means (各種方法)
    “Some addicts seem to have ways and means of getting the drugs for unending consumption.”
