scan,skim

scan和skim都可譯為“閱讀、快讀”，都可用作及物和不及物動詞，但實(shí)

際上它們有顯著的差別。

1)scan指“查讀”，是依照需要快速掃描出有關(guān)的細(xì)節(jié)。scan用于此義時，

可用作及物和不及物動詞。比方：

Shescannedtheadvertisementpagesofthenewspapers.她很快地查

讀了報紙上的廣告頁。

Ihaven'treadmuchintoityet.I'veonlyscannedthroughit.我

沒看多少，可是很快地將它查讀了一下。

skim與scan不一樣樣，是“略讀”，指的是跳過文章的詳細(xì)細(xì)節(jié)不看，在短時間內(nèi)快速掌握文章的要旨和馬虎。比方：

Ionlyskimmedtheheadlinesofthenewspapereverymorning.每日清早我可是一下的大。IonlyhadtimetoskimthroughthescriptbeforeIflewoverhere.我坐機(jī)來里以前，只能很快地了一下個腳本。比：Whenreadingapassage,ourEnglishteacheralwaystellsustoskimthepassagefirstinordertogetthegeneralideaandthenscanthepassageagaininordertofindthespecificinformation.在

文章，我的英總是告我先略文章以取文章的大

意，今后以得所需的詳細(xì)信息。

“Thereisdisputethat?”構(gòu)與“There’snodoubt/need/pointthat?”構(gòu)（B2U2,TextB）屬于同一句型，基本用法相同。
