分类: 教学资源

一、作形容词使用(adj.)

    1. still作为形容词时,指没有运动或动作的状态,相当于motionless,常译为静止的不动的。例句:

    (1) The doctor asked me to keep still. 医生叫我不要动。

    (2) The old woman sat still for about an hour. 那个老妇人一动不动,坐了大约一个小时。

    (3) Her hands were never still. 她的双手从来不停歇。

    2. still还可以指完全没有声响的,常译为宁静的平静的寂静的。例句:

    (1) How still everything is! 一切是多么寂静啊!

    (2) The forest was very still. 森林里非常寂静。

    (3) The room was still at the end of the speech. 演讲过后,室内一片寂静。

    calm不同的是,still常用于指生理上的安静,而calm则表示内在的平静状态,指人没有不安宁的表现或巨大的激动。例句:

    (4) Even after his wife died he was calm. 尽管他妻子死了,他仍很镇静。

    (5) The night was very still. 那天晚上很宁静。

二、作副词使用(adv.)

    1. still作副词使用时,含有仍旧之意,表示某事仍在继续,多用于肯定句或疑问句之中。例句:

    (1) My mother is still cooking. 我妈妈还在做饭。

    (2) Her arm still hurts. 她的胳膊还在痛。

    (3) In spite of his shortcomings, the girl still loved him. 尽管他有缺点,那个女孩仍然爱他。

    (4) Are you still working there? 你还在那里工作吗?

    (5) Will you still go there tomorrow? 明天你还会去那儿吗?

    试比较:     (6) He still stands. (副词) 他仍旧站着。

    (7) Stand still. (形容词) 站好别动。

    still有时也可用于否定句中,表示某事尚未完成或发生,此时,它要放于否定的助动词之前(在否定句中常用yet)。例句:

    (8) She still hasn't come back. 她还没有回来。

    (9) I still don't understand. 我仍旧不明白。

    (10) The bus hasn't arrived yet. 汽车还没有到达。

    2. still还可以用来修饰比较级,相当于even,可译为还要。例句:

    (1) We must study still harder. 我们必须更加努力地学习。

    (2) It was cold yesterday, but today it is still colder. 昨天天气很冷,可今天却更冷。

    (3) Her sister is still taller. 她妹妹个子还要高。

    (4) They came still earlier. 他们来得更早。

三、作连词用(conj.)

可是,但是,然而,虽然这样:

例句:1. It was futile(无用的), still they fought.  明知不可能获胜,他们还是进行了拼争。

      2. Still,since most of us live in one area where body language may be similar among people, it's important to know that you can communicate a lot by how you gesture,what you do with your arms when you're sitting or standing and talking to someone else,and even what your posture may say.

    译文:虽然,我们大部分人生活在一个肢体语言可能相似的区域,不过,知道你能用肢体语言传递很多仍然重要,……。

四、与calm,quiet和 silent的区别

When facing danger, one should keep calm; when taking photos, one should keep still; when someone else is asleep, one should keep quiet, In class,one shouldn't keep silent about the teacher's question. 

一个人面对危险时,应该保持镇静;照相时,要保持不动;当其他人睡觉时,应保持安静;在课堂上,对老师的问题不应保持沉默。
