英语短语动词pick up怎么用

　　英语不难学，但想要精通也不容易。原因之一就是英文词汇中存在大量一词多义的现象，单个的单词可以多达几种、十几种甚至几十种意思，就连固定的短语表达也常常有多种意思，如果不熟悉，就会影响理解。

　　

 

　　今天我们就来学习一下“pickup”这个短语动词。这个短语动词的意思就多达十多种。我们先掌握它主要的几种用法。

　　开始之前，先来看一段笑话：

　　Reducing

　　Doctor handing a bottle of pills to an overweight patient, “You don’t eat them. Just spill them on the floor three times a day and pick them up one at a time.”

　　减肥

　　医生将一瓶药递给一个大腹便便的病人：“不必服用。每日倒在地板上三次，每次一片一片地捡起来。”

　　在以上这段笑话中，“pick up”的意思是“捡起;拾起”，这也是我们中国的学生们最先熟悉的一个意思。这时“pick up”后一般接表示物的名词或代词。

　　Would you please pick up that book

　　from off the floor?

　　你能把那本书从地板上捡起来吗?

　　由此而来的类似的意思是指“收拾(某个地方)”：

　　Son, pick up your room this instant

　　or you are not going outside!

　　儿子，马上把你的房间收拾好，不然你就不要出去!

　　I'm sick of picking up after you!

　　我烦透了跟在你后面收拾!

　　还可以指“找到;买到;获得”，这时通常有“顺便、偶然获得”之意：

　　Would you pick up some milk

　　on your way home from work?

　　你下班回家路上能买点牛奶吗?

　　I picked up this tool at the hardware store.

　　我是在五金店弄到这工具的。

　　这个短语也可以指“学习(某样知识、技能)”：

　　I picked up some Japanese

　　when I was visiting Japan.

　　我去日本的时候学会了几句日语。

　　I picked up a lot of knowledge about music

　　from my aunt.

　　我从我阿姨那儿学到了很多音乐知识。

　　如果短语后接“speed,rate, tempo”等词时，意思是“加速”：

　　The plane picked up speed.

　　飞机加速了。

　　The conductor told the strings

　　to pick up the tempo.

　　指挥叫弦乐部分加速。

　　以上用法都是接something作宾语，如果接someone，意思又有不同。最常用是“pick someone up”是指“用车接某人”：

　　I’ll come by your house at 6 o’clock

　　and pick you up.

　　我6点钟到你家接你。

　　如果是男女之间的“pick up”，则有“勾搭”之意：

　　He had picked her up ata nightclub.

　　他是在一家夜总会勾搭上她的。

　　如果“pick up”的主语是police的话，那意思就变成了“逮捕”：

　　The police picked the suspect up in a motel.

　　警方在一家汽车旅馆抓到了疑犯。

　　用法实在太多了!以下省略若干不同用法……

　　……

　　等以上用法都掌握娴熟了，再去搞定其他的吧!或者，见到一个不同的用法就搞定一下，学一句算一句!

　　最后两个提醒：

　　很多不同的用法，其实可以从“捡起”这个本义来联想一下。

　　“pick up”所接宾语可以是人，也可以是物，可以接在“pick up”之后，也可以放在“pick”和 “up”中间，如果宾语是代词，那一般都是放在两个词的中间。
