前言

　　30多年来，我一直从事大学英语基础教学并讲授英语四、六级考试以及考研辅导班的课程。长期的教学实践使我接触了大量的翻译错误和写作中存在的问题，这些问题的症结几乎都是学生不能正确理解和运用惯用语所造成的。　　惯用语在英语中占有重要地位，它不仅数量大，而且表述简练生动，表意准确。千百年的使用和锤炼，使惯用语的丰富的内容和完美的形式达到了和谐统一。正确理解和运用惯用语，对中国学生来说并非易事，这是因为惯用法是英语国家的人惯常使用的结果。有些可以讲出道理，有些则是约定俗成。因此，惯用法也是英语教学中的一个重要方面。在英语教学中，教师不仅要关心学生们语法上的正确与否，更应该关心他们所讲或所写的英语是否通顺和合乎习惯。例如，英语中该说：ItisalongwayfromLondon.而不说*ItisafarplacefromLondon.这是因为习惯用法来自生动活泼的语言实践，而非来自语法推理。学生遇到的另一个困难是同义词辨析问题。英语词汇十分丰富，而同义词又可谓绚丽多彩，但它们却不能百花齐放，而只能各司其职，各尽所能。也就是说，真正同义而又能相互替用的词屈指可数。例如“电脑走进千家万户”，译成英语应该是：Computershavefoundtheirwaysintomillionsofhomes.而不是*Computershaveenteredmillionsofhomes.同时，学生还会遇到成对的相关词语易混淆问题所带来的困难，如outofquestion（毫无疑问），outofthequestion（毫无可能）；capitol（议会大厦），capital（首都），等等。还有一些名词的单复数形式也具有不同含义，如damage（毁坏），damages（赔偿费）；attainment（达到），attainments（造诣），等等。

内容概要

　　要想把英语用得准确、地道，把“恰当的词用于适当的场合”，就必须考虑这些词语所处的具体语境，注意它们的习惯表达。词语的恰当选择必须与英语表达习惯相联系。词语的联想涉及从词形变化到词义辨异，从词的搭配到介词、副词的习惯使用，更涉及从易混淆的相关词语到对其差异的对比分析。因此，正确理解、掌握、运用英语惯用法，不仅对英语学习者来说是至关重要的，而且对英语教师来说，也是不可忽视的。
