◇ 两者均为从属连词,引导时间状语从句,都表示主句的动作紧跟在从句的动作之后发生。主要区别在于:once除含时间之意外,还表示“条件”,一般译作“一旦……就……”。例如: Once he makes up his mind,he’ll never give it up.他一旦下定决心,就决不会放弃(本句不可用as soon as)。
◇ 而as soon as强调的只是时间,译作“刚……就……”或“一……就……”。例如: As soon as I get to Beijing,I’ll write to you.我一到北京就写信给你。
◆ one another;each other
◇ 两者均表示“互相;彼此”,为代词,仅作动词或介词的宾语,不作其它成分。两者虽可换用,但each other多用于两者之间的关系,one another多用于三者或三者以上之间的情况。例如: We both see each other at the office every day.我们俩每天在办公室碰面。 The six blind men couldn’t agree with one another.这六个瞎子各执己见。 They hate each other/one another.他们互相憎恨。
◆ one's own/oneself ◇ 如属于句子主语的“身内之物”(包括穿戴之物)或思想范畴内的东西,通常用one's own。
如:He cut his own hand.他割了自己的手。
I won't believe you until I've seen you in the jar with my own eyes. 我要亲眼看见你在坛子里才会相信。
◇ one's own有时可指代前面提到过的同类事物。
如:I don't need to borrow your pen.I've got my own.我不需要借你的钢笔,我有我自己的。
◇ oneself: 反身代词,强调句子主语发出的动作的承受者就是主语“自身”,即主语本身就是动作的承受者。
如:The little child cannot look after himself. 这小孩不能自己照顾自己。
(该句中用himself,因为the little child 既是动作执行者,也是动作承受者。)
The girl put on her new clothes and looked about herself in the mirror.
那姑娘穿上新衣服,对着镜子打量着自己。
◇ 3)oneself一般不作定语,而one's own则可以作定语。
如:This is myself's book.(×)
This is my own book.(√)
