refuse與deny
當(dāng)refuse作為及物/不及物動詞表示"拒絕接受"時,不可與deny混用:
I offered to pay him for his help but he refused(payment).他幫助了我,為此我提出要酬謝他,但是他拒絕接受(酬謝)。
但是,當(dāng)refuse作為及物動詞表示"拒絕給予"、"拒絕要求"時,它與deny可以互相替換:
Captain Fawcett has just refused/denied a strange request from a businessman.弗西特機(jī)長剛剛拒絕了一位商人的奇怪要求。
All those not holding tickets will be refused/denied entry.無票者不得入內(nèi)。
deny常用的含義是"否認(rèn)(指控、做過某事等)",refuse則沒有這個意義:
The secretary denies that she has stolen the letter.那秘書不承認(rèn)她偷了那封信。
bring,take與fetch
bring表示從某處將某物"帶來"; take表示"拿走";fetch則表示去某地將某物"取來",是個雙程的動作,(bring與take則表示單程的):

Did he bring you a gift last Sunday?上星期天他給你帶禮物了嗎?
Please fetch me a glass of water.請幫我取一杯水來。

too與very
very與too都表示程度,very的意思是"非常"、"很",too表示"太"、"過于":

This bus is going too slowly. I'll miss the train.這輛公共汽車走得太慢了。我會趕不上火車的。(too表示"太……"以至于引起某種后果)
