【语法提要】
1.live
live作动词,意思是“居住;生;活”。如:
I live in London all the time.我一直住在伦敦。
【辨析】alive,living与live
①alive 意为“活着的,活跃的”,主要作表语(有时可用作后置定语,但不用作前置定语),可形容人或动物。若 alive 本身有修饰语,则也可用作前置定语。如:
He is a really alive student.他的确是一个十分活跃的学生。
②living 意为“活着的”,可用作表语或定语,可用于人或物。通常是客观描述某人“尚在人间;健在”。如:
Both plants and animals are living things.动物和植物都是生物。
③live 意为“活着的”,通常只用作定语(前置),可指动物或植物,但一般不指人。如:
Only a few live trees were left after the fire.火灾之后只剩下几棵树还活着。
2.apartment
apartment 作名词,意为“公寓套房”,通常是指一套出租的房间(出租给短期居住者,通常带家具)。如:
I live in a threeroom apartment.我住在一个有三个房间的公寓里。
