spend-take-cost-pay-的用法区别.docx

spend, take, cost, pay 这四个单词都有“花费”的意思，但用法各不相同。 我们可以将其异同从以下四个方面进行分析。其一：主语。 其中主语为“人”的是spend和pay；主语为“物”的是take和cost。其中，take的主语常常是it。其二：内容。 花“时间”的是spend和take；花“钱”的是spend, cost和pay。其三：搭配。 spend后面的介词是on，若跟动词则用(in) doing，前面的in常常省略，可忽略不计。 take后面的动词形式为to do； cost后面跟双宾语，或直接跟钱的数目； pay后面常跟介词for。pay for可分开用也可连用，其意思不一样，参见表二。其四：过去式。 四个动词过去式都不规则，具体变化形式参见表一。 特别要提醒的是cost过去式不变，在句型转换时须注意时态。 另外，cost可作为名词使用，表示“费用”。pay作为名词表示“工资”。The cost (of the trip) is about ￥50 per person.
