常用詞order可以用作名詞和動詞。用作名詞時可以指“命令,囑咐;定購,定貨;次序,順序;整齊,有條理”四個大意思。比如:
His order is like a suggestion.他的命令像建議。The order has been delayed.訂單被延期了。A new order seems to be emerging. 新的秩序似乎正在顯現。Everything was in apple-pie order.所有的東西都整整齊齊。
order作為及物動詞的意思有“命令,囑咐;定購,叫(飯、菜等);按順序,按次序”等。比如:
The policeman ordered him to stand against the wall.警察命令他靠牆站好。Are you ready to order, sir?先生,可以點菜了嗎?Do you remember the number of books they ordered?你記得他們訂購書的數目嗎?
常見短語in order表示“整齊,秩序井然”。比如:I must put my affairs in order.我必須整理整理我的事務。Put them in order.把它們擺放整齊。
介詞短語in order to 的意思是“為了……”,後要跟原形動詞。比如:I go swimming every day in order to keep fit.我每天遊泳以保持健康。She arrived early in order to get a good seat.她早早到場,好找個好位置。
短語out of order“不正常的,出故障”,比如:The phone is out of order.電話壞了。The machine is out of order.機器出故障了。
需注意點:1.如果表達的是否定意義的目的,就隻能用in order not to不能用not to,如:We got up early in order not to miss the train.我們早起以免誤了火車。
短語in order that的意思是“目的在于,為了”,後面要跟從句。比如:We all get up early in order that we can start at seven.我們都早點起床,以便我們可以七點鐘出發。They worked hard in order that they might succeed.他們努力工作,以便能夠獲得成功。
2.不要把接不定式的in order to同接從句的in order that混淆。此外,so that也接從句表目的,不過它比in order that更常用于非正式的文體或講話場合。
