"如果不是","若非"。如: \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aExcept for you, I would pass the exam. 如果不是你,我就会通过考试。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a4. "except for+名词"结构一般可以改写成"except+that从句"。如: \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aThis will do except for the length.= This will do except that it is too long. 如果不是它太长的话,这会很好。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aAll are here except for the absence of Tina. = All are here except that Tina is absent. 除了蒂娜以外,大家都在这里。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a三、 except与except for的互换 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a1. except与except for有时可以通用,不过,一般情况下,except for可置于句首,而except则不能。如: \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aEveryone is here except Tom. (或:Except for Tom everyone is here.)除汤姆外,大家都到了。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a2. except与except for在句中也可互换。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a一般来说,否定句中用except,肯定句式可以用except for来替换。如: \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aThis article has no blunders except a few mistakes.这篇文章除了一点小错外没有大错。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a此句可改为:This article is instructive except for a few blunders. 这篇文章除了有些错误外,是有教育意义的。 \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0a不过,在前后有相称的同类词语时,应用except,否则用except for。如: \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aWe come to school every day except Sunday. 除星期天外,我们天天上学。(句中every day与Sunday同类) \x0d\x0a\x0d\x0aThis dress is ready except for the buttons. 衣服做好了,只是钮扣未缝上。(句中ready与buttons不同类)
