常用短语精解
1.to get on : to enter, board
【说明：】to get on搭乘，上车 动词get的用法很多，常常在后面接用各种不同的介系词或副词而形成意义不同的习语。这里的on是介系词，后面的bus和subway用作它的受词。如果on作副词用，则有进步，相处甚好，与年事已长的意思。
【例：】
1 I always get on the bus at 34th Street.
我总是在34街搭乘公共汽车。
2 William gets on the subway at the same station every morning.
威廉每天早晨在同一车站搭乘地下火车。
2.to get off : to leave, descend from
说明：】to get off 下车与上面的get on相反。Get off也有好些其它的意义，如寄出，离开等。下车也可以用alight from或get out of a carriage或motor car, 不过下电车或公共汽车多用get off .

1 Helen got off the bus at 42nd Street.

你通常在那一站下地下火车?
3.to put on: to place on oneself-said particularly of clothes
【说明：】
to put on 穿，戴特别指穿衣服、穿鞋、戴帽、戴眼镜也用这个成语。英文中还有wear和dress二字也是穿的意思。可是wear是继续的动作，表示穿着的状态，而put on是一时的动作。下面两个句子都是错的：
I shall wear my overcoat before I go out 应用put on. In such cold weather I put on my overcoat all day 应用wear.dress的意思是
①put clothes on后面的受词一定是人，如dress a child, dress oneself, be dressed in white,
