(1)no standing与free-standing:

no standing意思是不准在此停车(即使司机还在车上也不行),也就是"don't stop"或"no car at all",通常用在大城市交通十分拥挤的地方。至于"no parking",意思也是不准在此停车,但司机还可以坐在车里一段时间,必要时,可随时移动车子,也就是"you may stay in your car for a short period of time"。例如:

In New York City there are many"no standing"signs posted on the streets.

在纽约市,路上有许多"不准停车"的牌子。

"No parking"signs sprang up around the school campus in America.

美国校园里出现一些"不准停车"的路牌。

但是free-standing(adj,in dividual or separate building for a specific purpose),意思是独立式的,多指为特别用途而盖的单独建筑物或指一大建筑物的某种装饰。例如:

There is a new free-standing restaurant near the down town area.

在市中心区附近有座新的独立餐馆。

(2)break the house与 housebreak:

housebreak(to train pets to live proper hygiene at home)是指训练狗、猫等宠物,使其能在指定的地点大、小便,以保持家里的卫生。例如:

他倒车时,意外碰坏了房子。

(3)kick off 与 tip off:

kick off(officially start or beg in something)(有时也指球赛)意思是指任何事情的正式开始。例如:

但是,tip off(the beginning of official basketball game)虽然也指开始,不过多半是指篮球开赛前,裁判开球让两边球员争球。例如:

篮球赛于昨天下午两点开始。

to tip somebody off(to inform somebody)意思是通知某人。

(4)in line与on the line:

in line有许多意义,但最常见的意思是服从,不越轨,或按次序(obey,con trol or in the order)。例如:

(5)gifted child与exceptional child:

gifted child一般是指IQ很高的孩子;美国中、小学也有gifted and talented program(简称G and T program),现在也叫 magnet program。但是exceptional child是指特殊儿童,可能是指IQ很高,

也可能指 low IQ,除非在句子里特别说明,否则一般老外倒认为是智商较低或retarded child。例如:

注:美国政府对低能孩子的教育,反而十分重视,因为政府希望低能学生也能成为社会有用的份子。

(6)block out与black out:

to block out(to plan something ahead)意思是草拟大纲或订出某种计划。例如:

那船偏离航向200国际海里。

反之,"on course"(right direction)就是正确方向。例如:

至于,"help wanted"是指"需要帮手"(need a helper),而"job wanted"是指"需要工作"

(need a job)。例如:

(10)Surgeon General与chief surgeon:

Surgeon General是美国公共卫生部部长,也就是掌握美国三军、联邦、州政府大众健康的最高官员(chief medical officer for the U.S.public health services)(也许因为与美国军队有关,故用 "general")。例如:
