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:

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…)

99.consider用法小结
consider是个很常用的动词,其意义不同,句型结构也不同。我们在学习中要特别注意。
(1)作“仔细考虑、深思熟虑”解,consider可作不及物动词或及物动词。
作及动词时,后可接名词、代词、动名词作宾语,不能接动词不定式,但可以接疑问词+不定式,相当于宾语从句。例如:
Consider carefully before you decide.你要慎重考虑后再做决定。
They considered your suggestion.他们仔细考虑了你的建议。
He is considering studying abroad.他在考虑出国留学。
We are considering how to help them.我们在考虑如何帮助他们。
(2)作“将……视为、认为、以为”解。
①可用consider+名词+(to be)名词(形容词)或consider+名词+as+名词(形容词)结构,但当不定式为行为动词时,不能省略,不可用于进行时。这样用时相当于that引导宾语从句。例如:
He considers himself(to be)clever(=as clever).=He considers that he is clever.他认为自己很聪明。
I consider him(to be)my closest friend(as my closest friend).=I consider(that)he is my closest friend.我把他视为我最亲密的朋友。
He is considered to have invented the first computer.他被认为是最早发明计算机的人。
②还可用于consider+it(形式宾语)+形容词+不定式结构。例如:
I consider it wrong for students to smoke.我认为学生抽烟是不对的。
consider的用法:①You should consider the question.你应该考虑这个问题。
②跟从句
He began to consider when he would get married他开始考虑什么时侯结婚的事情。
③跟疑问词 + to do sth.
He is considering how to get there in time.他正想怎么能及时赶到那儿。
④跟动名词
Who considers answering the question?谁正在考虑回答这个问题?
⑤为……着想
He always considers others before himself他常先为别人着想。

(3)discover指“发现或找到”某种自然界本来已存在,但以前未被人类发现或认识的事物,如发现元素、电、煤、石油、铁等矿藏以及新星、星系或科学真理等。例如:
I discovered an unopened letter in the drawer.我在抽屉里发现了一封未拆的信。

144.exam; exmination; test; quiz
examination通常只指正式的“考试”,如期末考试、入学考试等。exam是examination的缩写,常用于口语,多为学生使用。test为“小考”成“考查”,quiz为“测验”,特指事先无准备,随时进行的测验,也可指(广播节目中的)一般知识测验、问答比赛、猜谜等。例如:

146.except; besides; except for+名词/except that+句子用法区别。
except 相当于but,表示“除了……以外(不包括在内)”,常与all, nobody,everything,everybody, nowhere等表示整体概念的词连用。besides相当于apart from,表示“除……以外(尚有)”之义。except for.../except that ...表示“除了……”之意,引述一个相反的原因或细节,因而部分地修正了句中的主要意思。如:Your article is well written except for some grammar mistakes.你的文章写得好,只是有几处语法错误。
excuse, pardon,forgive
excuse“原谅,宽恕”,语气较轻,指对轻微的冒犯、失礼等的原谅;pardon用于正式场合时意为“赦免”,也有“原谅,对不起”之意,语气最重;forgive指免除某人犯错误或违法承担的后果,或不追究其应受责备的行为。三个词都常与for连用,表示“原谅某人……”。

二者均有“等待”之意,但有不同。expect侧重心理状态,因而可译为“期待,期盼”, 是及物动词;而wait指行动,有“不干别的事专门等”之意,是不及物动词。对比:
