关于miss的意思 你知道的并不全
爱思英语编者按:认识这个单词已经很多年了,但它的的意思你都搞清楚了吗? 在第一组例句中,“miss”是想念的意思,指因为某物或某人不在了,或者在离你很远的地方,因而想念。在这种情况下,不要使用进行时ing形式。 Ankita misses her boyfriend who moved to Europe. Edgar misses his parents now that he’s living in the United States. Yolanda and Juan missed seeing each other when they were apart, but now they’re back together again. Now that you’re married, what do you miss most about being single? I miss the carefree days of my youth.
“miss”的另一种意思稍有不同,指你找不到某样东西了。在这种情况下,使用ing形式就很常见了。 This puzzle is missing a few pieces. The store is missing a few thousand dollars. She’s missing a front tooth. You’re missing an assignment. Where is it? The police are looking for a missing child.(在这个句子中,“missing”是形容词。)
“miss”的第三种意思是说,你试图击打或者投掷某物但没有命中,也就是“未击中/未投中”的意思。 Bobby swung at the ball and missed. Sheila tried to throw the cabbage into the garbage, but her aim was bad and she missed. The cabbage fell to the floor. That guy is a terrible basketball player. He always misses the basket. The forward missed the goal.
