become的用法
1、用作连系动词,其后可接名词、形容词、过去分词等作表语:
He became a teacher at (the age of)17.他17岁就当了老师。
The weather became warmer.天气变得暖和起来。
注意:其后接过去分词时,可表示被动或结果;但表示被动时,其后一般不接by短语。比如不说:
Soon the room became crowded bystudents.
2、become是终止性动词,因此要表示“成为…有多长时间”,英语不能将become与表示一段时间的词或短语连用:
他成为老师有十年了。
正:He became a teacher ten years ago.
正:It’s ten years since he became a teacher.
误:He has become a teacher for ten years.
3、become之后一般不接不定式表示“逐渐…”(此时可用come/begin+不定式):
正:He began [came] to like English.他开始喜欢英语起来。
误:He became to like English.
正:He became ill yesterday.他昨天病了。
误:He became to be ill yesterday.
4、用于习语becomeof,表示“发生”、“遭遇”等(常与what连用):
What has become of the girl?这个女孩后来怎样了?
I don’t know what will become of me if I fail this time.要是我这次不成功,我不知我会怎么样。
