Busy
be busy doing sth.
该结构意为“忙于做某事”。应注意的是be busy 后只能接动词-ing形式,不能接动词不定式to do,相同结构的形容词还有worth。如:
①He is busy writing his composition.
②She keeps busy working on a new novel these weeks.
③This book is well worth seeing.
but prep. 除…之外。与except同义,除了的部分与其他部分不在一个范围内,不具有一致性。except适用场合较多,but 主要用于带有nothing/nobody/no one/all 等不定代词的句子。

②We all went to see a film yesterday evening except/but you.除你之外作天晚上我们都去看电影了。(你没去)

①I did nothing yesterday evening but watch TV.昨天晚上除看电视外我什么也没干。
②He had no choice but to leave.他只得离开。
注意:besides 也是介词,意为“除……之外(还有)”。除了的部分和其他部分在同一个范围内,具有一致性。
①We all went to see a film yesterday evening besides you.除你之外昨天晚上我们也都去看电影了。(你和我们都去了)
②Who is going there with Tom besides you? 除你之外还有谁和汤姆一起去?
but for
该短语介词意为“要不是……”,后接名词(=without + n.),but for…短语相当于一个虚拟条件句,因此,句中谓语动词用虚拟语气。如:
The boy would have drowned but for your help.
如果接的是句子,but for要换用成but that…如:
He would have helped us but that he was short of money at the time.(= if it had not been the fact that he was…)
Buy
“我的金项链花了2500元”有多种译法:
by prep. 乘……。用来表示方式,其后的名词为单数,且不加冠词。
例如 by bike/bus/ car /taxi/train//road/railway/land/boat/ship/ water/ sea/
plane/air
但:“步行”用on foot.
注意:若表示交通工具的名词前有限定词,则将by 改作in 或on.
in one’s/the car/ bus/plane etc. on the bike
by name
该介宾词组的意思是“名叫……”;“凭名字”。如:
①He met a man, John by name.
②I knew him only by name.
by one’s first marriage 通过或由于某人的第一次婚姻
介词by有许多含义,在此处意为“通过”,相当于through。
He left by the first train.
他乘第一次列车离开了。
The electricity supply is operated by a switch.供电由一个开关控制。
by the age of/at the age of,by到……时为止。表示的是一段时间,句子通常用完成时态。
