常用英语短语词组
阅读理解和写作一直是英语考试中的难点，为了挺高英语阅读能力和写做能力，平时一定要多积累单词和短语，为了帮助大家，我分享了一些常用短语，希望能帮到大家!
1. catch fire
the house caught fire when they were away. 在他们外出时房子着火了。She was standing to close to the fireplace and her dress caught fire. 她站得离壁炉太近了，衣服烧着了。
2. on fire on fire / catch fire
都是“着火”的意思，不过catch fire强调动作，on fire强调状态，如：Look! The house is on fire.
3. look out Look out!
(当心、小心)，比Take care! 或Be careful! 语气要强，往往用于某种紧急情况或可能出现危险的场合。Look out! There’s danger in the forest. 后还可接for短语：Look out for the rock in the water. 当心水里的石头。
4. put out
灭火 They tried their best to put out the fire. 常用被动语态：The forest fire was put out soon. 森林大火很快就被扑灭了。注：be out熄灭：The forest fire was out at last.
7. in that case
如果那样 It may rain tomorrow. In that case, you'd better try another day. 明天可能下雨。那你最好改天在试。In that case, you wouldn't have a pan on fire. You'd have a house on fire! 如果是那样的话，那你就不是使一个油锅着火，而会使一座房子失火了!对比：in case 以防(万一)，如：Take your raincoat in case it rains. 携带雨衣，以防下雨。
8. belong to
属于(无被动语态)。These books belong to the school library. 这些书是校图书馆的。Who does this belong to? 这是谁的?He doesn’t feel he belongs here. 他觉得自己是外人。
9. close to close
在这儿是形容词，意思是靠近，to是一个介词，后面要加名词，即：close to+宾语。如：There is a bank close to our school.我校附近有家银行。There were so many people in the street watching the fire that firefighters could not get close to the building. 街道上围观大火的人太多了，消防人员无法接近大楼。
10. lose one’s life
失去生命。死(die)还有一种婉转的说法：pass away 去世。The dog saved the boy but lost its own life. 这狗救了这小孩，但却失去了自己的生命。Thousands of lives were lost in the earthquake. 在地震中，成千上万的.人失去了生命。
11. Put on performances
演出。 动词词组put on有“上演”“表演”的意思，如：We’ve decided to put the play on again next week. 我们决定将在下周再次上演这出戏。 The senior class put on a dance. 高年级表演了一个舞蹈。
12. at present
present前面不能加冠词，要加冠词的话，得用at the present time。如：Mr. King is busy at present/now. Can he ring you later? 金先生现在很忙，他稍后给你电话，好吗?We are planning for a new experiment at the present time. 现在我们正在计划一项新的试验。
13. year by year
表示每年有所变化时(as each year passes)用year by year，如：I grow taller year by year. 我一年一年的长高了。表示一年年一成不变时(continuously for many years)，就要用year after year。对比：The flowers remain the same year after year while people change year by year. 年年岁岁花相似，岁岁年年人不同。
“名词+by+名词”意思是“逐个地”“一个接一个地”，如：They went to the hall one by one.他们一个接一个进入大厅。 These problems should be solved step by step. 这些问题应当逐步解决。
