accept vs. receive
TEST 哪個才正確
Q He has __________ our invitation but he will not go.
□ accepted □ received
A 應為 received,因為 receive 僅表示收到,至于接不接受則另當別論。
He has received our invitation but he will not go.
(他已收到我們的邀請,但他不會去。)
一眼就看出不同在哪里!
accept 動 接受;答應;同意
to take sth offered willingly; be willing to agree to sth
表示接受者處于主動,而且是高興地接受、同意。
receive 動 接收;收到
to be given, presented with, or paid; to accept or take delivery of sth that has been given to you
表示接受者處于被動的地位,不管接受者愿意與否,僅表示收到某物。
STEP 01 活學活用玩轉例句!
I am here to accept the award.
我來這里領獎。
Roger accepted my idea in principle.
羅杰原則上接受(同意)了我的構想。
She accepted the job without hesitation.

It is more blessed to give than to receive.
給予比接受更幸福。
Have you received my email yet?

特別補充 receive 的賓語若是人,則表示"歡迎;接待"的意思,此時接待者是處于主動的地位。
STEP 02 比一比,別再用錯了!
01
He's received an invitation from his students but he doesn't want to accept it.
他收到了他學生的邀請,但他并不想赴約。
She received a gift from him, but did not accept it.
她收到了他的禮物,但并未接受。
解析 用 receive 表示接受者處于被動;用 accept 表示接受者處于主動,而且樂意接受。
02
David received his English teacher cordially.
戴維熱忱地接待他的英語老師。
解析 receive 的賓語若是人,則表示"歡迎;接待"的意思。

accuse vs. charge
TEST 哪個才正確
Q He was __________ of stealing.
□ accused □ charged
A 應為 accused,因為 accuse sb of N/V-ing 是固定短語,若用charge,介詞須用 with。
He was accused of stealing.
(他被指控偷竊。)
一眼就看出不同在哪里!
英英釋義用法大不同
accuse 動 指責;譴責;指控;控告
to say that someone has done sth wrong or be committed a crime
表示對一般犯錯行為的指責或對犯罪的指控、控告,其后搭配使用的介詞為 of。
charge 動 指責(公開的); 指控;控告
to claim openly that someone or sth is bad; to accuse someone officially of committing a crime
表示對一般犯錯行為的公開指責或正式對犯罪提出指控、控告,其后搭配使用的介詞為 with。
STEP 01 活學活用玩轉例句!

The police have charged John with murder.
警察指控約翰犯了殺人罪。
He was charged with stealing.
他被指控偷竊。
特別補充 charge 作動詞時還意為" 索費" ; 另外,charge 也可作名詞用, 意為" 費用;職責",這兩種用法都很常用。
STEP 02 比一比,別再用錯了!
01
He was accused of the robbery.
他被指控搶劫。
He was charged with the robbery.
他被指控搶劫。
解析 accuse 與 charge 有時可以互換,不過 accuse 與介詞 of 連用,而 charge 與介詞 with 連用,其后都可接名詞或V-ing。
02
They tried to charge me RMB 300 for the service.
他們想要向我索取三百元人民幣的服務費。
解析 charge 作動詞時,還有"索費;收費"的意思。
03
The charge for admission is RMB 100.
入場費為一百元人民幣。
解析 charge 作名詞時,意為"費用;職責"。
STEP 03 用法知更多!
