2、and so on
and so on : etc等等。用来表示列举,但又不一一列出。
He knows five foreign languages, English, French, Japanese and so on.他懂5种外语,如英语、法语、日语等等。
3、anxious/eager
两个词均有“渴望,急于”之意。anxious着重指焦急、着急或担心;而eager着重指对成功的期望或进取的热情。两者都多用作表语,其主语通常是人,不能以无生命的事物作主语。对比:
He is eager to join the army.他渴望参军。
He is anxious to know whether he has been chosen.他急于知道是否被选上了。
常用搭配:
①be anxious to do sth.渴望急切地做某事;be anxious for渴望(了解、得到);
be anxious about担心,对……感到不安
②be eager to do sth.急切地想做某事;
be eager for (about, after)渴望,渴求,
be eager for your help渴望得到你的帮助;
