(2)beat意為“打敗,贏”,后接表示人、隊伍等的名詞作賓語。

5.ThankstoJenny,everythingisOKnow.thanksto意為“多虧,由于”,后加名詞、代詞、動名詞作介詞賓語,多用在句首作狀語,表示原因。【辨析】thanksto,thanksfor(1)thanksto意為“多虧,由于”,強調(diào)感謝的對象,thanks不可以改為thankyou,to為介詞,后不接動詞原形。(2)thanksfor意為“因……而感謝”,強調(diào)感謝的原因,thanks相當于thankyou,for后可接名詞或動名詞。

6.Wesaidsorrytoeachother.saysorrytosb.意為“向某人說抱歉”。【拓展】sayhellotosb.向某人問好;saygoodbyetosb.向某人道別。
